As the Campbell River Maternity Clinic celebrates the fifth year since making a critical decision to relocate, one of the clinic’s physicians reflects on their continued efforts breaking barriers for families seeking birth support.
Vancouver Island father Nick Chowdhury is grateful and excited that families who must travel to Campbell River to get essential medical care for their children will soon be welcomed at a home away from home. Q̓ʷalayu House, which will be adjacent to the North Island Hospital, breaks ground Thursday, and will shelter expectant mothers and members of their family from the northern region of Vancouver Island.
