For another year of supporting and caring for patients in illness and injury … we thank Alberta's health care workers. We extend our heartfelt wishes for all the best the holiday season can bring and for the year ahead. We honour your contributions by advocating for a publicly-funded and publicly-delivered health care system that provides the best patient care for all Albertans.
Special Commendation - Fall 2020
The Committee on Achievement Awards recommended that the AMA confer special recognition in 2020 on specialists in Public Health and Preventive Medicine for their hard work during the COVID-19 pandemic. Their dedication to protect Albertans in such a crisis and under such pressure is remarkable and worthy of our deepest respect. We acknowledge their leadership contributions, not only in the wake of the pandemic, but also in the continuous collaborative efforts to promote health and well-being of Albertans through various public health initiatives, projects and programs.
