Funding Priorities

Your donations make a direct impact to the annual needs of the South Huron Hospital. Each year the South Huron Hospital Association Board presents the Foundation with a list of immediate priority needs, as identified by the Hospital CEO and Leadership Team.

Last year, for fiscal 2021-2022, the South Huron Hospital Foundation committed to a list of Capital Needs for the South Huron Hospital of $465,000. This list included such items as:

• Pharmacy Dispensing Unit
• Ultrasound Machine
• Infant Warmer/Resuscitation Unit
• Emergency Stretcher
• Hospital Beds
  

For fiscal 2022-2023 the Foundation has committed to an initial list of $750,000 in Capital Needs, and anticipates there will likely be more items coming that have not yet made it on to the official proposal. Items are added on to an official proposal only once quotes are received for the items, and when the hospital leadership feel that it is likely the items will be fulfilled within a reasonable timeframe. The 2022-2023 list currently features items such as:

• Cardiac Telemetry Monitoring Systems for both Emergency and Inpatient Units (a $300,000 project)
• Glucometers and Middleware Technology
• Lab Centrifuge
• Wall Mount Suctions
• Health Coding & Patient Records Software
• Xray Equipment & Paediatric Chair
• Replacement of curtains in patient rooms
