Vernon Jubilee Hospital was recognized for the “Civility Matters” project at the Facility Engagement Showcase held in Kelowna on October 23-24, 2023. The project exemplified the power of engagement and collaboration between a physician and his dyad partner, which spread quickly to support civility work in other departments throughout the hospital. The project conducted a robust evaluation showing 82% positive impact, which garnered interest from multiple levels of Interior Health and from other hospitals in the region.
