Good day! Good start to the week. We would just like to appeal to everyone to keep Anna in our thoughts this turbulent time period. Thoughts and prayers. Please assist us in showing support as UP anaesthesia family by wearing something yellow as part of your attire. We would like to show Anna that we as a department stand behind her in support during this period.

With this news, I'd like to present a Disney's Spotify playlist to help us kick off the week in a strong note.

Please peruse the below article if you would like to try and see how this particular block can potentially benefit our patients.
