About Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation
From the beginning, Royal Columbian Hospital has stood at the heart of health care in British Columbia. Created by visionary pioneers to provide compassionate care to those building a new province, the hospital has participated in the social and economic changes of British Columbia since 1862. Today, Royal Columbian is one of British Columbia’s busiest hospitals, serving a population of close to two million people. It is a regional referral hospital for cardiac, trauma, neurosciences, high-risk maternity and neonatal intensive care. No other hospital in the province provides all of these services, at this level of care, on one site. It provides the highest level of care to the most critically ill and injured from throughout the province.
Heart of gold
Generosity has the power to create a ripple effect that can last for generations. As evidence, look no further than a thoughtful philanthropic gift made decades ago that set the course for the growth of cardiac care at Royal Columbian Hospital. Over the past 50 years, heart services at the hospital have expanded to the point that Royal Columbian is now the busiest cardiac centre in BC, and it has become the busiest in Canada for a key, life-saving heart attack treatment.
Royal Columbian’s first heart catheterization took place more than 50 years ago, something that was made possible in 1969 following a $100,000 donation from the P.A. Woodward Foundation.
At the time, it was the largest private donation ever made to the hospital, and it triggered a successful fundraising campaign to match the contribution.
The equipment that was purchased allowed for cardiac imaging to be done for the first time at Royal Columbian. The first heart catheterization was performed in November 1969.
Today, the New Westminster-based hospital provides emergency cardiac care for a third of British Columbians who live, work, or play within the boundaries of the large Fraser Health Authority. In addition to the most open-heart surgeries in the province, Royal Columbian performs more angioplasties than any other hospital in the country to restore blood flow to people who have suffered heart attacks because of clogged arteries.
Cardiac services are again set for tremendous growth and advancement as Royal Columbian undergoes phase 2 of its unprecedented $1.49 billion redevelopment. A new Acute Care Tower, set to be complete in 2025, will include increased care for heart disease and capacity to treat more patients.
