Priority Needs
Equipment saves lives.You Make it possible.
When you or a loved one need care at the Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital, having the right equipment matters.
For the 2026/27 fiscal year, more than $2 million is needed to fund essential medical equipment – tools that help diagnose, treat, and care for patients close to home.
Government funding does not cover the cost of this equipment. That’s why community support is so important.
Your gift to the Perth & Smiths Falls District Hospital Foundation helps ensure our care teams have what they need to deliver exceptional care, right here at home.
This page outlines just some of the equipment currently needed.
Please note: Equipment needs and pricing are subject to change due to market fluctuations.
Anesthesia Machine-$101,633
Anesthesia machines are essential in hospitals for providing a controlled mixture of gases and anesthetic agents to patients during surgical procedures. They ensure that patients remain unconscious but breathing, which is crucial for safe and effective surgery. The machines deliver oxygen and anesthetic agents through a breathing circuit, allowing for the delivery of gases to the patient and the removal of exhaled gases. They also include safety features such as hypoxic guard systems, oxygen failure alarms, and pressure relief valves to protect patients during procedures.
