Co-operators Insurance partners with Centre Grey Health Services in campaign for new Markdale hospital

Cooperators and Foundation cheque presentation March 2022

David Miles, owner of the Dundalk and Markdale Cooperators offices along with his District Manager, Regional VP and Advisor Community Fund have stepped up to partner with Centre Grey Health Services Foundation by giving $25,000 to the “Together In Care” campaign for the New Markdale Hospital.

“Co-operators have been making communities safer, healthier and more resilient for decades” said David Miles, Financial Advisor. “As a co-operative, our commitment to communities is an operating principle that inspires us to take action, provide support and raise awareness when there’s a need. Based on this, our donation to the new Markdale hospital simply made sense” stated Miles.

“A strong community hospital is only possible with strong community support” stated Paul Stewart, Volunteer of the “Together In Care” Campaign for Centre Grey Health Services Foundation. “The Cooperators have certainly confirmed their commitment to our hospital and our communities through this donation. We are so very grateful to them.”

At just over 78,000 square feet, the new Markdale Hospital will be over twice the size of the current building. It will have an around-the-clock emergency room, along with eight examination and treatment rooms, seven in-patient rooms and a palliative-care room, a procedures room, laboratory, physiotherapy, diagnostic imaging, spiritual care, outpatient clinics, such as memory, mental health and diabetes clinics, a cafe and will house the foundation’s office.

At South Grey News, we endeavour to bring you truthful and factual, up-to-date local community news in a quick and easy-to-digest format that’s free of political bias. We believe this service is more important today than ever before, as social media has given rise to misinformation, largely unchecked by big corporations who put profits ahead of their responsibilities.

South Grey News does not have the resources of a big corporation. We are a small, locally owned-and-operated organization. Research, analysis and physical attendance at public meetings and community events requires considerable effort. But contributions from readers and advertisers, however big or small, go a long way to helping us deliver positive, open and honest journalism for this community.

Please consider supporting South Grey News with a donation in lieu of a subscription fee and let us know that our efforts are appreciated. Thank you.
