Equipment Needs
Your children were born here, a grandparent lives here and your friend’s life was saved here. We understand that often we forget the impact health care has on our lives unless we are at the center of a crisis.
Our Campbell River Hospital touches the lives of more than
people in our community and the North Island.
There are nearly
babies born in our hospital each year.
Each year, our hospital performs over
x-rays and
mammograms.
On average, there are more than
ultrasounds performed each day, that is more than
each year.
Our hospital has one of the most efficient ICU’s in the Province. In 2018 alone, our ICU had more than
ventilator hours.
Our Current Top Priorities
Hospital equipment is advancing rapidly with new technology making it easier to diagnose and treat diseases and disorders. The Campbell River Hospital Foundation is raising money to purchase the equipment our doctors have identified as most urgent. Some items are new and some are replacement items for old and outdated equipment. Every single piece of equipment on our wish list is vital to our hospital’s ability to offer you and those you love the very best treatment and care.

Because it is mobile and easily maneuverable it can be adjusted according to the position of the patient, while leaving the clinicians hands free to perform the procedure. It improves first attempt success rates for IV and lab tests, prevents delaying patient care and staff resources.AVALON FM30 FETAL MONITOR
This Machine measures mom's contractions and the baby's heart rate in utero. With the Telemetry system, moms are able to get up and walk during labour and a battery pack allows quick monitoring in an urgent situation that is not dependant on the physical layout of the patient room or OR.

With the instance of caring for moms and babies during Covid-19, when a mom is suspected or confirmed to have COVID-19 and must deliver by cesarian, they are moved to a Negative Pressure Operating Room, this room is not equipped with hookups for this equipment. Therefore due to the battery pack , mom and baby are continuously monitored throughout the move and the medical procedure.
MOBILETT MIRA MAX UPGRADE
Wireless and security midules for digital and mibile portable x-ray machines. Will allow for instant access and transfer of x-rays from patient bedside (i.e. Emergency, ICU) to physician/radiologist for review.
