We are pleased to share that the Centre for Global Surgery has been featured in the latest issue of The Square Knot, the newsletter of McGill University's Department of Surgery.
The article highlights the participation of CGS Co-Directors Dr. Deckelbaum and Dr. Grushka in a Sub-Arctic Winter Field Hospital Readiness Exercise in Chisasibi, Quebec. Conducted in partnership with the Cree Board of Health and Social Services of James Bay and the Canadian Red Cross, the initiative focused on strengthening healthcare preparedness and emergency response capacity in remote northern communities.
The feature also reflects the value of global surgery partnerships and the exchange of knowledge between international and northern Canadian contexts to strengthen healthcare systems in challenging environments.
We thank the Department of Surgery for highlighting this important collaboration in the latest issue of The Square Knot.
