Honoured today to receive the King Charles III Coronation Medal…awarded to Canadians for outstanding contributions.
This recognition carries many names and many stories. 💙

I began providing palliative care in long-term care in 2016 — an experience that’s shaped my work ever since.
Honoured to receive the 2025 Dr. S. Lawrence Librach Award, recognizing physician leadership in palliative care.
Grateful to all who’ve shared this journey. 🙏🏽
