One of the most important forms of healthcare doesn’t happen in a clinic.

At the end of April, I had the opportunity to speak in Drumheller about something I think matters deeply:

Volunteering.

Not just because of what it does for a community…
but because of what it does for the people who choose to serve.

In medicine, we spend a lot of time talking about physical health, mental health, prevention, and systems of care.

Sometimes we overlook something much simpler:
People do better when they feel connected.
Useful.
Needed.
Part of something bigger than themselves.

As I shared during the speech:
“Sometimes the most important health intervention is not a prescription or a device - it is belonging.”

That’s one of the reasons volunteering matters so much.
It creates purpose.
Connection.
Movement.
Belonging.

In many ways, those things are their own form of medicine.

Grateful to have had the chance to speak about this in a community that understands the value of showing up for one another.

Grateful for the people who quietly help hold communities together every single day.
