The Nanaimo & District Hospital Foundation is excited to be hosting our third annual Light the Trees this Christmas. This year it is our official kick off to a $1.8 million Cardiac Campaign!

Every year 8,700 patients receive cardiac care at Nanaimo Regional General Hospital (NRGH) and Oceanside Health Centre (OHC) in Parksville. The Heart Health program faces major challenges in meeting the demand for cardiac services in Central and North Vancouver Island, particularly with our growing population.  With renovations and equipment costing $1.8 million, we will be able to deliver 95% of pre and post-surgery cardiac care that positively impacts patients in our communities and reduce wait times by as much as 50%.
