December 13th Local Hero – Deanna Hellyer!

Her nominator, Justin, writes, “Deanna is a Case Worker with Community Living. Recently, Deanna was made aware that an individual in the community had become unresponsive and required emergency care. Deanna found them, immediately called 911 and set out on performing CPR until the paramedics arrived. Thanks to her quick thinking, medical training and calm demeanour under pressure, the person in crisis survived. This act of bravery not only saved this person’s life, but highlighted Deanna’s deep commitment to her community and her readiness to act selflessly in a moment of crisis. Her actions attest to a profound sense of care and responsibility for others, which serves as an inspiration not only to her team, but to everyone who has the privilege of knowing her.”

We think you’re amazing, Deanna! You’ve won a gift card and a certificate for being this week’s Local Hero.
