This holiday season, from December 23 to January 3, pharmacies will operate with reduced staff, and a temporary schedule will be in place to accommodate the needs of communities, while taking limited resources into account.
Farewell to Philippe Lubino
The CBHSSJB would like to recognize and pay tribute to the dedicated service of Philippe Lubino, who has served as Director of the Chisasibi Regional Hospital since 2016 and Coordinator for Specialized Services from 2014 to 2016.
“Philippe Lubino has made a significant contribution to the advancement of telehealth in Eeyou Istchee. He has a strong sense of the community’s values, and as Hospital Director during COVID-19, he ensured that Elders and the most vulnerable were well cared for, and protected.” -- Daniel St-Amour – Executive Director CBHSSJB
The Laboratory team of the Hospital surprised Philippe with a small supper in order to thank him for his leadership and dedication to the staff and the community.
"Some of his many accomplishments include the creation of specialized services, implementation of the Elders' Home in Chisasibi and the expansion of laboratory and archives services in Eeyou Istchee." - Christina Biron, Assistant Executive Director, Miyupimaatisiiuun.
"Everyone you meet teaches you something. Philippe was graceful, elegant under fire running the Hospital. Philippe left a nice foundation, the work will continue and people will remember.” - Jeannie Pelletier, Proximity Director of the Chisasibi Pole
The CBHSSJB wishes Philippe all the best. He will be missed.
