With an aging population and the number of people with cardiovascular disease climbing, so is the need for cardiac resources. We must ensure that we not only sustain, but advance cardiac care at our hospital with innovative technology and specialized training.
“It’s so important to have the latest equipment in our physicians hands—for diagnosis, intervention and rehabilitation. Your support will help make sure your hospital continues to be a cardiac centre for excellence.”
