RIH maternity unit witnessing Mother Goose's special delivery

April 13, 2022

A Canada goose in Kamloops has selected a fitting place to lay her eggs this spring – under the windowsill of the labour and delivery unit at Royal Inland Hospital.

And her decision has brought joy to the hearts of labour and delivery staff, who are keeping close watch via a baby monitor at the nursing station. Pictured above from left to right, labour and delivery nurses Talia Ollek, Janelle Manderson and Monica Manderson showcase the monitor.
