SUMMARY:Starlite Campaign 2019
DESCRIPTION:Cancer\, coronary artery disease\, kidney failure\, dementia\, infection… the best results come from early detection. This is imperative! The East Kootenay Foundation for Health is raising $1.2 million to purchase a SPECT CT. This advanced\, life-changing piece of equipment will change the face of healthcare in the East Kootenay Region. Dr. Curtis Mohamed\, MD Nuclear Medicine\, explains the SPECT CT. “SPECT CT combines the 3 dimensional functional imaging of Nuclear medicine with the anatomical accuracy of CT. The merging of these modalities creates an advanced imaging technology that improves patient care by enhancing diagnostic accuracy”. Many medical conditions can be assessed by SPECT-CT including (but not limited to) staging and monitoring treatment in multiple forms of cancer (e.g.\, breast\, prostate and lung); determining the extent of infection and monitoring therapy\, and site-specific processes such as lung clots\, kidney function and bone fractures. The SPECT CT creates 3D images. Improved diagnostic confidence will lead to the patient getting the best and most appropriate treatment for his or her condition. \nThe state-of-the-art SPECT CT scanner at the East Kootenay Regional Hospital will be the only equipment of its kind in the East Kootenay\, providing faster\, more definitive diagnosis of medical conditions. For patients\, it will reduce the anxiety of waiting for a full diagnosis and the commencement of treatment\, reducing time\, money\, travel expenses and stress. If your life has been touched by cancer\, heart disease\, renal failure\, dementia\, and the list goes on\, you will truly understand the impact of having this state of the art diagnostic equipment. On behalf of the East Kootenay Foundation for Health\, I invite you to be part of this very important campaign. We need your support to make this a reality. To help\, we invite you to make a holiday gift to the EKFH\, purchase a star and light the way to help the East Kootenay Region become a leader in health care. \nTogether we can save lives! \nWith sincere appreciation\,\nBrenna Baker Executive Director \n\n PREVIOUS

SUMMARY:Day of Giving - Creston Valley Hospital
DESCRIPTION:The East Kootenay Foundation for Health (EKFH) is proud to hold the 2nd Annual Day of Giving on December 13th at the Creston Valley Hospital from 11am-3pm. The EKFH will be set up in the main lobby spreading the spirit of the Holidays and their annual Starlite Campaign by accepting donations for Creston Valley Hospital’s tiniest patients. \nThe East Kootenay Foundation for Health is raising $35\,000 to purchase and isolette. An isolette is a specialized crib (incubator) that maintains a warm environment for a new baby and isolates him or her from germs. A baby\, especially a premature baby\, who cannot maintain body heat\, can be protected from drafts and cold in an isolette. Oxygen can also be administered to a newborn in an isolette without the use of a mask. The isolette can be life-saving for an infant waiting to be transferred to a larger centre. \nPlease stop by the Creston Valley Hospital on December 13th from 11am-3pm to donate! Everyone who donates on the Day of Giving will have their name will be entered into a draw to win a gift basket from Save On. The goal for December 13th is to raise $10\,000 to light up the star on top of the Creston Valley Hospital! \nIf you are unable to stop by on December 13th you are invited to make a holiday gift to the EKFH by calling 1-877-489-6481 or go online to ekfh.ca. The EKFH would like to thank all of their past and current donors and they look forward to having a successful 2019 Starlite Campaign!
