Last fall, the QEH Foundation announced a campaign to fund a CT scanner for the QEH emergency department.
In just a matter of months, the generosity of donors has seen the Foundation raise the full $1.3 million cost of that sophisticated piece of equipment. The CT scanner is used for the diagnosis of critical illness, injuries and trauma, and to assess the extent and severity of a condition. The procurement process for the new CT scanner has begun and it is set to arrive at the QEH later this year.
The QEH Foundation’s Friends for Life campaign continues, raising funds for other priority medical equipment.
