Equipment Needs
Proceeds made through Trust Fund activities and events supplement government funding for medical equipment.
Each year, Group Health Centre works with the medical staff to determine which pieces of medical equipment require repair or upgrade and what equipment needs to be replaced. Prioritization of the equipment is based on how critical it is to patient care.
We also understand that specific areas or departments had a positive impact on the patient care experience for you and your family members.
