Congratulations to Dr. Denny Laporta, former Chief of Adult Critical Care at the JGH, for having a new award named in his honour. The award will be presented each year to an outstanding respiratory therapist, a field in which Dr. Laporta has had a long-standing interest due to its importance in the ICU. As Dr. Laporta prepares to ease into semi-retirement, the award was created to acknowledge his many contributions during more than 38 years in the department.
