It is a major tertiary teaching hospital that is recognised for its clinical excellence and commitment to research.
We support a diverse community who have a wide range of health needs. With a growing community and an ageing population, there is constant pressure to upgrade and expand our facilities and resources, with limited funds available.
Rapid advances in technology and development in the fields of medicine and science make it difficult for the hospital to keep up. New equipment is made available constantly and state of the art equipment provides more accurate diagnoses and is faster, safer and less invasive.
We want our patients to have the best and purchasing new lifesaving equipment will ensure that our health facilities remain at the cutting edge of modern health.
Funds will be used to buy up to date equipment and provide services for patient care and treatment.
For example: Vital Signs Monitor
The Vital Signs Monitor is a state of the art, user-friendly, cost-efficient piece of equipment that monitors temperature, pulse, blood pressure, respirations and blood oxygen in a non-invasive manner. It provides accurate, immediate information and is time and cost-efficient. The information it provides can prevent the development of serious complications and it helps to achieve better health outcomes.
