COVID-19 is affecting each and every one of us and the Government of Quebec has declared a provincial health emergency. At St. Mary’s Hospital Foundation (SMHF) the health of our community and our staff remain our utmost priority. As an acute care hospital, we are working very hard to save lives and help prevent the spread of the virus in Quebec. We need your help.

Our dedicated teams of physicians, essential administrative staff and hygiene and sanitation workers on the front-line are in need of personal protection equipment (PPE) to keep playing a pivotal role in the response to this pandemic. SMHF is responding to the urgent need for $50,000 to purchase the following PPE for our frontline:

1 -Protective hoods for intubation

2 -Stethoscopes

3 -I Pad tablets to use with portable ultrasounds

4 -Protective eye-wear

Please know that while our fundraising events have been put on pause, our healthcare services have not. St. Mary’s devoted front-line health professionals are at the very heart of this crisis. We know they would greatly appreciate your support while they are doing their utmost, professionally and personally, to help carry us through this difficult time.
