URGENT AREAS OF NEED

There are immediate and critical health care needs in our community. Right now, Surrey Hospitals Foundation is focusing on these campaigns to raise funds and bring life-changing health care to our community.

SOME HIGHLIGHTS OF WHAT WE'VE ACHIEVED TOGETHER

Since 1992, we’ve been unstoppable in our drive to change lives.

2020 - current

Ongoing support of Surrey's COVID-19 Response

We’re using funds raised by our community to support the front line teams at Surrey Memorial Hospital with both immediate and ongoing needs. To date, our COVID-19 Response Fund has enabled us to acquire 150 additional pieces of important equipment as requested by the hospital teams.

2019 - 2020

Renewing 10 Operating Rooms at Surrey Memorial Hospital

Over 21,000 surgeries per year are performed inside of Fraser Health’s busiest surgical centre at Surrey Memorial Hospital. We have partnered with Fraser Health to renew all 10 operating rooms with state-of-the-art equipment and innovation, helping to recruit and retain top surgical talent to Surrey. Three of the operating rooms are now complete.

2018 - 2020

Transforming the Regional Children's Health Centre

Since the Centre was built in 2001, the population of Surrey has increased by 50%. 1 in 3 Surrey residents is under 19 years old. In response to this growing population, SHF partnered with Fraser Health to transform the regional Children’s Health Centre at Surrey Memorial Hospital. This renovation will increase the number of clinical rooms, open Surrey’s first pediatric pre and post surgery unit, and move the Joseph Chung Pediatric Oncology Unit to a renewed, brighter space overlooking the playground.

2018

Better Care for Our Community's Alzheimer Patients

By working together, we’ve been able to fund specialty programs and support for Alzheimer patients in our 72-bed Czorny Alzheimer Centre, which provides specialized care and a safe, comfortable home for dementia patients. The Centre was gifted to Surrey Hospitals Foundation in 2018, and is operated by Fraser Health.

Highly specialized, urgent care for kids in crisis

By funding the establishment of the ten-bed Cloverdale Paint Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Stabilization Unit, children and adolescents in urgent mental health crisis will receive attentive care from a highly specialized team in a calm environment. This unit is the first of its kind in Fraser Health. Prior to its opening, young patients were seen in emergency departments throughout the region. An SHF-funded Parent-in-Residence and Youth-in-Residence program by Family Smart ensures both youth and parents are supported during their stay.

2014

30% more beds for patients, increased capacity, new facilities and better space for patient care

Thanks to your generous donations, we were able to help fund the new 8-story Surrey Memorial Hospital Critical Care Tower, a $512 million redevelopment and expansion project that featured:
• Double the capacity of care for high-risk babies in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU)
• Opening of B.C.’s first Ronald McDonald Family Room for parents
• Expanded stroke and intensive care units

2013

Funding for a specialty pediatric emergency department

You helped fund the building of a new Pediatric Emergency Department at Surrey Memorial Hospital, 5,500 square feet of kids-only emergency medical treatment in a safe, welcoming space. The pediatric emergency department at Surrey Memorial is 1 of only 2 in the province.

2011

You helped reinvent patient care by funding the Jim Pattison Outpatient Care and Surgery Centre

The first of its kind in B.C. and an incredibly valuable asset to the people of Surrey, the Jim Pattison Outpatient Care and Surgery Centre features:
• Day surgery, diagnostic procedures (lab, X-ray, CT and MRI scans, biopsies and specialized health programs) all within one building
• New breast health clinic and urology services

2001

Our most vulnerable are even better cared for at the new Children's Health Centre

Through our community’s generous donations to Surrey Hospital Foundation, the new Children’s Health Centre was fully funded, featuring:
• Surrey’s first chemotherapy unit for children
• Neonatal intensive care unit for fragile, premature babies
• A new family birthing unit and increased capacity for surgery
