CCRHD contributes to Kordyban Lodge

From the Cariboo-Chilcotin Regional Hospital District:

Recently the Cariboo Chilcotin Regional Hospital District (CCRHD) received a letter of gratitude from the Canadian Cancer Society for the CCRHD’s contribution of $60,349 to the Kordyban Lodge Campaign in Prince George. This amount was determined based on a formula of $1 for every resident of the Cariboo Chilcotin.

Construction on this facility began in July, 2011 and is expected to be fully operational by the end of 2012. A total of 36 beds will be available to serve cancer patients and their families from communities throughout Northern BC.

Once completed, Kordyban Lodge will be a 25,000 square-foot facility in Prince George, offering comfortable and affordable accommodations for cancer patients and their caregivers. Guests of the Lodge will be provided with amenities such as access to 24 hour nursing support, three nutritious meals a day, wellness and support programs and the opportunity to connect with others who are facing similar issues.
