A special video message for International Women’s Day

 
A collage of women who work for the Ottawa Hospital.

Every year on March 8, we recognize International Women’s Day to celebrate how far we have come with equal rights and opportunities for women, and to acknowledge how far we still have left to go.

This video was created by women at TOH for the Women of TOH. It’s a short but sweet reminder to everyone that the women in our organization are driven, caring, innovative – and powerful.

We will share this video on March 8 on The Ottawa Hospital’s social media channels. We invite you to also share it, along with your own photos of our incredible women – tagging us in your posts with #WomenofTOH and @TheOttawaHospital.
