Our Current Greatest Needs
Laparoscopic System
Nearly half of the surgeries performed at WDMH rely on one essential piece of equipment: the laparoscopic system, which acts as the surgeon’s eyes. After 17 years of use, this critical tool is reaching the end of its life, and the image quality is no longer where it needs to be, making procedures more challenging and patient care more complex. While this technology is vital, the provincial government does not fund medical equipment for hospitals, which is why community support is so important. Right now, you can help by giving today and doubling your impact, as every donation will be matched up to $10,000 thanks to a generous donor. Your generosity helps keep patients safe and ensures our teams have the tools they need to provide the very best care, when it matters most, thank you for caring for your hospital, your community, and every life we serve.
