NEWS - Congratulations to the Montreal Chest Institute’s (MCI) during a Ministerial visit to the extended care unit
On Tuesday, May 17, 2011, the MCI received notice from the Ministère de la Santé et
des Services Sociaux (MSSS) that a visit to the MCI would be conducted by members of the MSSS,
the Agence de santé et des services Sociaux de Montréal and a representative from the Conseil pour la protection des malades.
The MSSS representatives came to see the 35
residents of the MCI’s extended care unit. They were touched by the level of specialized
care this clientele requires as well as by the fact that, despite the severity of their
conditions and the physically limited space, the care team and family members managed to
personalize each resident’s environment in order to, as much as possible, create a living
space that reflects the individual’s personal tastes. The Ministry representatives also
remarked on and were impressed by the dignity and respect with which staff interacted
with residents. Management would like to congratulate all healthcare providers of the MCI’s
extended care unit for their devotion, their humane approach to care, and the exceptional
contribution they make to the residents’ wellbeing. THANK YOU!
