Detailed description:
Each pillar of the STARS program aims to enhance patient care. From supporting and implementing technology that helps locate the patient faster to educating and training our partners in the Chain of Survival, it is STARS’ goal to help put more time on the patient’s side. Dr. Gregory Powell is made an officer of the Order of Canada for his contributions to health care during a ceremony in Ottawa presided over by Governor General Michaelle Jean.
