Doctors Nova Scotia has opened the online nominations for a new award that will recognize the hidden heroes of the pandemic. The people who delivered groceries to neighbours; who called isolated community members to check in; who sewed masks to give out.
Called the Dr. Robert Strang Community Hero Awards, the awards are a way to recognize those working behind the scenes within the community during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Doctors Nova Scotia President, Dr. Robyn MacQuarrie, said the award will recognize Nova Scotia’s unique community spirit that brings people together in tough times.
