Life-Saving Surgical Equipment
As Canmore's population surges and surgical demand rises, Canmore General Hospital faces the urgent need for updated surgical equipment. Since its establishment in 1984, key areas like the surgical suites have not evolved to their full potential, leaving gaps in resources and capabilities. With the recent addition of new surgeons and the increasing demand for surgeries, it's imperative to upgrade our equipment to meet modern standards. Your support will help us acquire essential tools like 4K cameras, telescopes, and laparoscopic scissors, ensuring the highest quality care for our community.
