'Happiness is: Sledding into the Holidays Together'
That sums up our CHEO Ottawa PICU Team - sliding through the holidays to care for our sickest patients! With kindness, a smile and an incredible team spirit. It's just the PICU way!

Thanks to Melanie Bechard & all the CHEO Ottawa team working today. So many of you have given up your own family time to help others. Thanks to your families for all THEY have done to help our community. It's not gone unnoticed. Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah & Happy Holidays to all!

Every policy and decision made must include a child, youth and family lens. Let’s encourage decision-makers to work together across jurisdictions, departments and other spheres of influence to improve the health of children.
