This National Volunteer Week we challenged our Senior Leadership Council to spend a 'Day in the Life as a Volunteer". Volunteers at Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre and Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Foundation work day in and day out to help us accomplish our goals of exceptional care close to home. The Senior Leadership Council took the challenge and volunteered part of their day working an array of shifts that volunteers would do on a weekly basis. Peter Myllymaa, (centre) Executive Vice President, Corporate Services and Operations for Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre and Chief Operating Officer for Thunder Bay Regional Research Institute spent a 'Day in the Life as a Volunteer' as an information desk volunteer answering questions and directing patients and visitors.
