The Kootenay Lake Hospital Foundation is governed by a group of dedicated volunteers whose purpose is to raise funds for the priority medical equipment needs of our community hospital. The Board of Directors consists of up to 13 directors who each serve a 3-year term.

Our directors bring to the Board a variety of backgrounds offering their unique skills and talents to ensure the Foundation’s success.

The Foundation Board is a working Board elected by its members. Directors and members serve on various committees such as the Events Committee, Community Relations Committee, Governance Committee, or the Finance Committee.

All directors and members contribute their time and effort without any payment or benefit other than the satisfaction of contributing to the community.

Your donation to this year’s Light-Up the Hospitals! campaign will help fund the purchase of a state-of-the-art
OmniBed CareStation for the Maternity Ward at Kootenay Lake Hospital.

This advanced unit combines an incubator and radiant warmer in one, providing a stable, warm environment with gentle
temperature and humidity control.  It helps protect at-risk babies, such as those born prematurely or requiring additional medical support.

With integrated features such as oxygen delivery, suction, and a rotating mattress, the OmniBed makes it easier for
clinicians to respond quickly while keeping babies as comfortable and undisturbed as possible.

It also provides vital support to stabilize infants for safe transfer to specialized facilities when needed.

Thank you for keeping our littlest patients warm and safe.

Any funds raised in excess of our goal will be directed to the purchase of
other priority medical equipment for Kootenay Lake Hospital.
