A strong progressive healthcare system is the cornerstone of any community. The strength of healthcare in our region is a determining factor in quality of life, business development and maintaining a vibrant active society. Anyone who has ever needed the services of a hospital knows the true value of quality medical services and excellence in care.

​

We have been accustomed to receiving high levels of acute healthcare. Previously, our healthcare system has received total funding through tax dollars. This is not today’s reality. We must now rely on community support to help fund equipment costs and yes even some operating costs in order to sustain adequate levels of healthcare service.

​

Funding is always an issue and local support is required. The Moosomin & District Health Care Foundation was formed in 1994 to meet community healthcare needs which may not have immediate funding support from government. The Moosomin & District Health Care Foundation is passionate about providing the funds necessary to ensure that our health care professionals can deliver quality health care to our region. With the funds and the generosity of our community your investment makes it possible for staff and physicians to ensure the right care is available when you or your loved ones need it.

​

Your donations support the purchase of necessary vital medical equipment (large and small), furnishings, patient care, improvements and education. Thanks to your ongoing support the Foundation is able to ensure patients have access to the highest quality care close to home.

​

The Foundation also supports the doctor’s clinic and this past year we partnered with the Southeast Municipal Healthcare Corporation to provide the funds for improved office space in the Moosomin Family Practice. The Foundation also supports the clinic by providing accommodations for temporary health care professionals as well as doctors completing their residency requirements. The Foundation owns a Condo which is currently rented to one of the resident doctors as well we have secured the lease of two units at the Elite Suites.

​

The Foundation is a registered charitable organization that is ran by a voluntary board of directors. We must follow the Canada Revenue Agency regulations and the fundraising ethical principles and guidelines of the Canadian charitable sector professional bodies.
