North Shore Sports Medicine Wins Canada Post’s Tales of Triumph Contest!
North Vancouver, BC — October 30, 2020 – We are excited to announce that we have won Canada Post’s Tales of Triumph contest in the “Weathering the Storm” category, a grand prize which includes national media coverage, and coaching sessions from Canada Post’s expert panel.
COVID-19 forced many businesses to find new and creative ways to stay running. Small businesses “Weathering the Storm” are working day in and day out to keep their lights on, showing they have what it takes to persevere and overcome unique challenges. The pandemic allowed us to rethink and reinvent how we provide our services as we switched to virtual Telehealth appointments during the shut-down, in order to continue providing the high-level care our patients know us for.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Canada Post for acknowledging our hard work, and to our community of loyal patients who have put their trust into NSSM for over 30 years.
