A Message from Cheryl Williams, Halton Healthcare's EVP Clinical Operations & Chief Nursing Executive:
Since stepping into her role earlier this year, Cheryl Williams has been getting to know our teams, our culture, and the community that makes Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital so special – including the donors and supporters who help make it all possible. With fresh eyes and a deep appreciation for compassionate, high-quality care, she’s already feeling the pride and energy that define Halton Healthcare.
In this message, Cheryl shares what’s inspired her so far, what she’s looking forward to, and how your generosity continues to power progress across our hospital and beyond.
It’s hard to believe it’s been almost two months since I joined Halton Healthcare. What an incredible experience it has been so far. From my very first day, I’ve been inspired by the people here – their passion, dedication, and quiet but unwavering pride in delivering the best possible care to our patients and community.
I want to share a few reflections with you because you – our donors, friends, and supporters – are a vital part of what makes this organization so special.
A Culture of Care, Powered by You
One thing that struck me right away is the remarkable culture at Halton Healthcare. It’s no surprise we’ve been recognized again as one of Canada’s Most Admired Corporate Cultures. There is a real sense of purpose here and a shared commitment to making a meaningful difference in people’s lives.
Every step forward is strengthened by your support. Whether you have made a donation, attended an event, or shared words of encouragement, you are part of this incredible community that empowers our teams to provide outstanding care.
Looking Ahead: Growing Stronger Together
As I walk through the hospital each day, I see firsthand how your generosity makes a tangible impact. It’s there in new equipment, expanded services, and innovative programs that bring care closer to home. With exciting initiatives like One Halton Healthcare and our new Clinical Service Plan, we are working hard to respond to the evolving needs of our community. Your continued belief in this mission is what makes it all possible.
Connected Care, A Shared Vision
We know a patient’s healthcare journey doesn’t stop at the hospital doors. That’s why we are focused on building stronger connections between our hospital sites, our teams, and our community partners. Our goal is to create a seamless, patient-centred experience that ensures every person receives the highest standard of care, wherever they are.
This work is possible because of the incredible foundation of community support we have. Together, we are breaking down barriers, improving coordination, and keeping patients at the heart of everything we do.
Thank You for Being Part of This Journey
I’m excited about what lies ahead, and I want you to know how grateful we are to have you with us. Your partnership is essential to our success and your generosity continues to touch lives every day.
Thank you for helping us make a real and lasting difference.
Warmly,
Cheryl Williams
