“I so greatly appreciated the REAL funding I received to participate in the SOGC Virtual Conference. It came at a time of COVID exhaustion and discouragement due to loss of so many staff. I feel it was beneficial to hear how other areas are working together in collaborative care models and to review the most recent up-to-date obstetrical guidelines which allow us to offer the best care we can. Thank you RhPAP for your continued support!!! - Chantal, Lac La Biche, Midwife
