Happy Spring!
We are pleased to share our Spring 2026 Newsletter, a season that brings renewed energy and continued momentum within our PeriAnesthesia community. This edition highlights meaningful work happening across Ontario, showcases regional and hospital updates, reflects on PANW 2026, and offers upcoming educational opportunities. And of course, we have included a few fun stuff and a few nursing week activities to brighten your day.
This time of year also gives us a special opportunity to recognize the dedication, compassion, and expertise that nurses bring to patients and families every single day. Happy Nurses Week 2026, a moment to celebrate you and the extraordinary impact you make across our healthcare system.
This Spring issue includes:
• Hospital Feature • Regional & Hospital Updates • Nurses Week 2026 • A Review of PANW 2026 • Education & Upcoming Events • The Fun Stuff
