MRHA Celebrates Long Service
Award Recipients Across the Organization
Almonte & Carleton
Place, ON – The Mississippi River
Health Alliance (MRHA) proudly recognized staff, medical staff, and recent
retirees during its 2026 Long Service Awards celebration held on June 3 at
Almonte General Hospital.
The event celebrated staff
and medical staff from across Almonte General Hospital, Carleton Place &
District Memorial Hospital, Fairview Manor, and Lanark County Paramedic Service
who have dedicated years — and in many cases - decades of service to caring for
local communities.
This year's recipients
represented milestone anniversaries ranging from five to forty years of
service, reflecting the remarkable commitment, compassion, and professionalism
that continue to strengthen healthcare across the region.
"Behind every year of
service is a person who has made a difference in the lives of patients,
residents, families, and colleagues," said Brad Harrington, President
& CEO of the Mississippi River Health Alliance. "Today is an
opportunity to recognize not only years of service, but the lasting impact
these individuals have had on our organization and our communities."
Special recognition was given
to Heather White, whom was recognized for an extraordinary 40 years of
dedication to healthcare within the MRHA.
The MRHA also recognized
recent retirees whose contributions have helped shape the organization and the
communities it serves.
The MRHA extends its sincere
congratulations and gratitude to all 2026 Long Service Award recipients.
