Northwest B.C.’s largest fundraising effort: $14.5M for new neonatal care unit at TerraceBC’s hospital
At $14.5 million, the Dr. R.E.M. Lee Hospital Foundation’s campaign now underway to raise the money for a neonatal intensive care unit at Terrace’s new Mills Memorial Hospital under construction is the largest of its kind ever to take place in northwest B.C.
A neonatal intensive care unit, which will provide an advanced level of before and after birth care not possible now in the region, was not included in the design, cost or financing formula for the new hospital. There was also a clock ticking when construction contractor PCL Construction told Northern Health the window of when the infrastructure for a neonatal intensive care unit could be added without affecting a quote it provided.
An arrangement with the hospital district to act as a financial backstop for the foundation as it raises money is also playing a key role. Instead, the foundation has created a 19-member group of regional representatives, including a few foundation board members, to focus in on the neonatal campaign.
