The BC Cancer Excellence Awards give us an opportunity to shine a light on some of the inspiring people and teams at BC Cancer. Let’s celebrate those who work every day to ensure that the people of B.C. receive world-class, patient-centered cancer screening, treatment and support.
This is a chance to celebrate the passion and remarkable contributions of BC Cancer staff, and highlight some outstanding examples how our people are making a difference for British Columbians facing cancer.
