More than a hospital foundation.
The Province provides only a small share of the funding for the medical equipment that makes excellent care possible in Eastern PEI. Your gifts bridge the gap, across five areas of care.
Souris Hospital
Our 17-bed community hospital offers inpatient, ambulatory and extended care, with lab and X-ray on site, so most tests and treatment never mean a drive to Charlottetown.
- Sysmex blood analyzer with digital cell imaging — $125,000 (2025)
- Pyxis MedStation computerized medication dispensing — $65,000
- Digital X-ray suite, co-funded with the Province — $400,000 (2016)
- EKG heart monitoring system and a defibrillator for the lower level
- Accessible tub room with patient lift, Century Tub and new shower room
- Pressure-redistribution mattresses, stretcher, over-bed tables, isolation and medication carts
Colville Manor
Our long-term care home in Souris lets residents stay close to the families and friends who visit them. Gifts buy equipment and materials that improve residents’ daily lives.
- CPR training equipment and AED training for staff
- Positioning chairs, shower chairs and other comfort and safety equipment
- Theraglide chairs are on our current wish list
Home Care & Palliative Care
When a senior falls and needs special equipment to stay mobile and independent, or a family is caring for someone at the end of life, the Foundation helps make it possible at home.
- Mobility and safety equipment so people can recover and stay at home
- Support for palliative care at home, alongside Health PEI teams
- Equipment requests that often come with little warning
