LEVEL 3 – Neonatal Intensive Care Unit - NICU

“Parents suffer so deeply when their child’s health is at risk. I believe they truly benefit from seeing a smile or hearing a giggle – I think it lifts the spirit and feeds the hope that everything will be OK again.” Steven Wilson, Owner/Operator McDonald’s Family Restaurants of Oshawa & Clarington.
