Local Nurse, Brenda D. Recognized as Delta Hospital Campus HERO

Delta Hospital and Community Health Foundation (DHCH Foundation) has created an initiative, the Hospital Employee Recognition Opportunity (HERO) Program to provide patients and their families the ability to acknowledge the incredible care they’ve received by a special hospital employee while at the Delta Hospital Campus of Care.

The HERO program works by nominating a Delta Hospital HERO and donating to DHCH Foundation in their honour. The recognized individual receives a certificate and a HERO pin to wear on their hospital uniform.

Recently, local nurse, Brenda D., from Delta Hospital’s Surgical Daycare was nominated as a Delta Hospital Campus HERO by a local Delta family. Brenda was recognized for her amazing patient care. Brenda dedicated herself to ensuring that the young patient and her family were well cared for from the beginning to the end of their hospital experience.

“She went above and beyond! We found ourselves in Surgical Daycare well into the evening and Brenda was simply amazing,” said the mother of the patient. “She was so caring and compassionate – we are truly grateful!”

Delta Hospital is one of the highest volume day surgery sites in the Fraser Health region with approximately 7,900 surgeries and endoscopies being performed each year.  “Especially during the busy holiday season, it is important to recognize the remarkable staff at the Delta Hospital Campus of Care who take on a high volume of patients,” says Lisa Hoglund, Executive Director, Delta Hospital and Community Health Foundation. “Our community is lucky to have Brenda and all the incredible staff working at our campus.”

Outstanding healthcare is provided at the Delta Hospital Campus of Care because of the dedicated and compassionate efforts of those who work there. Initiatives like the HERO Program are great ways to recognize the hardworking healthcare workers as well as give back to the Delta community and support the Delta Hospital Campus of Care which includes Irene Thomas Hospice and Mountain View Manor.
