Media Release: Every May, National Nursing Week draws attention from around our nation as we celebrate the role and contributions nurses make to the well-being of Canadians. The recognition week brings attention to the profession and takes place during the birthday week of Florence Nightingale, who is considered the founder of modern nursing.
Today, Hôtel-Dieu Grace Healthcare (HDGH) hosted its 2025 Nursing Awards Ceremony that honoured HDGH Nurses with the Jeanne Mance Extraordinary Nursing Award and the Lori Dupont Bursary.
Winners of the Jeanne Mance Extraordinary Nursing Care Award, which recognizes HDGH nurses who continually go above and beyond to provide compassionate and professional care to patients and exemplify teamwork, compassion, stewardship, and respect, included:
- Shelly Ouellette, Registered Nurse
- Antonella Whalen, Registered Practical Nurse
- Eleysha Pare, Charge Nurse
The 2025 recipients of the annual Lori Dupont Bursary are Brooke Campoli, Registered Nurse and Shauna Carter, Nurse Practitioner. This bursary will assist Brooke in pursuing her Nurse Practitioner designation to enhance her professional development and expand her ability to care for the elderly patients within our community. Shauna will apply the bursary toward her studies in Catholic Bioethics, further strengthening her ability to address the complex ethical challenges in today’s healthcare environment. The Lori Dupont Bursary assists with continuing education costs. Each successful candidate is awarded up to $1,000.
“Our nurses embody the true power to transform health through their ongoing dedication, compassion, and expertise. This Nursing Week, we celebrate their extraordinary ability to make a profound impact on patient care and the healthcare system as a whole,” says Shannon Landry, VP of Clinical Services, Restorative Care & Chief Nursing Executive.
