    County of Simcoe celebrates Nursing Week

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    Midhurst/May 12, 2025 – The County of Simcoe has proclaimed May 12-18, 2025, as Nursing Week, celebrating the exceptional nurses who serve our communities.

    That includes the dedicated nursing professionals who serve in the County’s four long-term care homes providing 24/7 care to our vulnerable residents by overseeing complex medical care while also delivering daily treatments and medications.

    “The nurses who serve in our long-term care homes and support in our seniors services locations demonstrate remarkable skill, compassion, and dedication every day,” said Warden Basil Clarke. “They don’t just address medical needs – using their expertise, specialized knowledge and unique approach in caring for our older adults, they honour each resident’s dignity and support their quality of life.”

    Over the last number of years, these nursing professionals adapted to ever-changing conditions while maintaining quality care. They built meaningful relationships with residents and families, creating a true home environment within our facilities.

    Throughout the week, residents are encouraged to share their thanks and show their support to the outstanding nurses in their lives and communities.

    The County of Simcoe is composed of 16 member municipalities and provides crucial public services to County residents in addition to providing paramedic and social services to the separated cities of Barrie and Orillia. Visit our website at simcoe.ca.
