Send your best wishes to a patient



SAULT STE. MARIE - Sault Area Hospital (SAH) recognizes how important it is for family and friends to keep in contact with a loved one during a hospital stay.



As a result, SAH has just launched the Best Wishes Program, a new web-based email service for anyone wishing to send a hospital patient a message.



The Best Wishes Program is accessible on the SAH home page and under Visitors.



All you need to do is simply complete the short online form, type the patient a message and hit “send”.



The message will be printed and delivered by one of our friendly SAH volunteers the same day (if received by noon) or on the following day, Monday through Friday.



This service is available for incoming emails to patients only.



So if you have a friend or loved one who is a patient at SAH and you can’t get in to see them in person, take advantage of the Best Wishes Program to let them know you are thinking about them!



Thank you to the Volunteer Resources Department for implementing this wonderful new service for our patients.



For further information, please go to the SAH website at www.sah.on.ca
