Two front-line staff members at Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering hospital have brought their hobby to work and the result is a picture-perfect display for patients, visitors and colleagues to enjoy.
Alma Kelley, an Operating Room nurse, and Ron Pereux, a Radiology Technologist in the Diagnostic Imaging Department are both members of the Ajax Photography Club as student and teacher, respectively. Together, they and several other club members donated photographs to Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering hospital to display in a waiting area in the new West Lobby.

Formed just last year, the Ajax Photography Club boasts more than 60 members, many of them at the novice level. Club members are from different backgrounds but all have benefitted during the last 12 months from club-organized workshops and outings exploring a variety of imagery, from lighting to landscapes.
“The selection of photographs cover a wide range of subjects, and I hope that the patients and visitors to our hospital will enjoy them all. Thank you to Rouge Valley Health System Foundation for helping us display our photographs,” – Alma Kelley.
Alma will continue to work with the club to change the display every three to four months so that Rouge Valley patients, staff and volunteers have an ever-changing photographic landscape in the hospital.
