Thank you for helping us care for Islanders.

When you support the QEH Big Day of Giving, you’re helping Islanders get the care they need close to home. Essential equipment, like patient monitors, are only made possible with the support of our community.

“Thanks to the generosity of donors, we’re able to keep our equipment up to date, helping us provide higher-quality care for patients and their families. New cardiorespiratory monitors will allow us to observe patients even when we’re not in the room — giving families added reassurance and comfort during a stressful time.”
