I am pleased to share with you – our donors – the QEH Foundation’s 2012-13 annual
report demonstrating the impact that your support has made to the people who
receive and provide all levels of healthcare services at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
As donors supporting the purchase of medical equipment throughout the past year,
you were an essential part of the healthcare team. For the hundreds of people who
presented with chest pain and received an echocardiogram for rapid diagnosis and
treatment – you were there. For the 850 babies born at the QEH last year – some who required critical care
through the Neo-Natal ICU – you were there. And, for the thousands of patients who visited specialty clinics
in Ambulatory Care Centre – you were there.
Regardless of your level of support to the QEH Foundation, you had a direct impact on patient
care and healthy outcomes. On the pages that follow, you’ll read some stories that will

In June, the Foundation celebrated two momentous events: the unveiling of a new donor recognition
wall in the lobby of the hospital, and the announcement of a significant milestone of donating more
than $50 million to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital for equipment purchases since inception in 1984.
In 2014, the QEH Foundation will celebrate 30 years of supporting the equipment needs of the QEH.
Advances in medicine and technology over the past three decades means new and upgraded medical
equipment is essential and continuous, which leads us into our 2013-14 goal to raise funds to equip
the surgical support services expansion and redevelopment. The QEH Foundation continues to need
you as part of the healthcare team here at home on PEI.

Here for all ages.
Thanks to the generosity of our donors and the healthcare professionals at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital,
28 year old Rachel Harper is alive to share her story. In February 2012, Rachel received a shocking diagnosis upon
arrival to the QEH Emergency Department. She was athletic, young, and in great physical shape. Having ignored chest
pains, shortness of breath and tightness in her legs for too long, Rachel presented with all the signs and symptoms of a
pulmonary embolism - a potentially deadly blockage of arteries in the lungs caused by blood clots.
With the quick action of QEH Emergency
Physician, Dr. Joanne McGinn, and the
attention of QEH Internal Medicine Specialist,
Dr. Patrick Bergin, Rachel’s life-threatening
condition was rapidly diagnosed and treated.
Rachel and her family credit these QEH doctors
and the nursing staff for saving her life.
Last year the
Foundation raised
over $400,000 in

patients just
like Rachel.

& Eileen McMillan Ambulatory Care Update.
Thanks to the generous support from donors, the QEH Foundation contributed $5.2 million in medical equipment for
the new Dr. Joseph A. and Eileen McMillan Ambulatory Care Centre that opened in August 2012. Since then, patients
have benefited from the ease of access and expanded areas this centre has to offer. With close to 350 patient visits per
day, the new Ambulatory Care Centre has improved wait times, relieved pressure on the Emergency Department, and
increased overall healthcare service provisions at the QEH.

Faith in her hospital.
As a registered nurse at the Queen Elizabeth
Hospital for more than 30 years, Stratford
resident Kathy Larter was not as shocked as she
thought she would be when she discovered
she had breast cancer after detecting a lump.
Surprised nonetheless, Kathy had complete
faith in her fellow healthcare professionals at
the QEH.
Once diagnosed in March 2012, the experience of walking into the place that had become her second
home changed drastically. As the Nurse Manager for Unit 4, Kathy went from taking care of mothers
and their babies, to being the one taken care of. Even with her
cancer diagnosis, Kathy considers herself one of the “lucky ones”, As she discovered, “you never know
as she was able to receive all of her care here at home on PEI at when you might need the QEH.”
the QEH. Between the Diagnostic Imaging Department, the QEH
Operating Room, and the PEI Cancer Treatment Centre, she feels the care that she received was second to
none. Kathy is grateful to all of her QEH family for being there for her in her time of need, and to the QEH
Foundation for providing the state-of-the-art medical equipment, which many people may not realize.
Kathy is a long time supporter of the QEH Foundation and since 2007 has regularly donated to the
Foundation through payroll deduction.

QEH Foundation Milestones.
In June, the QEH Foundation celebrated two
significant events leading into its 30th anniversary
year.
In addition to unveiling a new donor wall,
the Foundation announced a milestone of
$50 million in equipment purchases for the
QEH since its inception in 1984.
The QEH Foundation unveiled its first donor
wall in 1989. The need for a new wall had to
do with the recent renovations of the hospital,
coupled with the need to expand the recognition
wall to accommodate the number of people

whose cumulative giving reached the starting
Subscriber level of recognition at $5,000,
through to the Platinum level of $2,000,000 and
above.
The names recognized on the wall represent
so much more than the financial contributions
donors have made. They represent families
and friends, loved ones who passed away,
special events, and also many caring Islanders
and visitors to PEI who decided that the QEH
is important to them. All the names together
represent a common compassion – the desire
to help others in need.

QEH Annual Friends for Life Campaign
Residents of Prince Edward Island demonstrated
yet again their Island generosity and belief in
the Queen Elizabeth Hospital by donating a total
of $2,000,000 during the QEH 2012
Annual Friends for Life Campaign.
Funds raised through this campaign enabled
the purchase of multiple pieces of priority
medical equipment including two new lasers
for ophthalmology, four new ultrasound units
for Diagnostic Imaging and the Emergency
Department, rehabilitation equipment for
stroke care patients, and two new anaesthesia
gas machines for the Operating Room.
Annual Friends for Life Campaign chair Dr. Jerry

The Rotary Club of Charlottetown Royalty,
together with the Queen Elizabeth Hospital
Foundation, held its 10th anniversary ‘Great Day’
Fore Health ~ Harry MacLauchlan Memorial Golf

donor to the Foundation.
Since 2003, and with the support of generous
companies and individuals, this golf day has
raised $392,856 for medical equipment at

From their neighbourhood to you.
Nigel Armstrong and his family present a donation to Telethon Chair Chris Whitlock on behalf of the residents of
MacMillan Crescent, who fundraise regularly in support of the QEH.
The residents of MacMillan Crescent in
Sherwood have been fundraising for the QEH
Foundation for the past 10 years.
MacMillan Crescent resident and former QEH Foundation
board member Sibyl Cutcliffe has led the charge for
a number of years, which includes fundraising events
such as yard and bake sales, card parties, and canvassing
during Telethon and the Annual Friends for Life Campaign.
It’s been a win-win experience for all the
residents involved, as they have had the
opportunity to get to know their neighbours
personally, and feel good about collectively
supporting the QEH. The group has raised over
$30,000 and is the only street on PEI to be on
the Foundation’s new donor wall.

MacMillan Crescent resident Nigel Armstrong
knew the importance of supporting the QEH,
but it became a much more meaningful
activity for him after being diagnosed with
cancer in 2009. He experienced first-hand the
technology and equipment that his fellow
neighbors have helped purchase and is grateful
for the care he was able to receive here at
home on PEI. As a young person with a young
family, Nigel is proud of the efforts and
dedication of the street where he lives and
would like to encourage other streets
throughout PEI to get involved in supporting
the QEH.

A legacy gift to the
Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
Bob Bateman was a successful entrepreneur
who owned and operated Prince Edward Air,
along with his loving wife Carolyn. Before they
sold their company in 2010, they had a successful
fleet of 25 airplanes with over 130 employees.
Sadly, Bob passed away in March of this year
following a brief but courageous battle with ALS.
Bob adored his wife Carolyn and their two sons,
Scott and Adam and he was so blessed when
he became a ‘grampie’ to grandchildren Mara,
Mateo and baby Maxim.
In 2002, Bob became a member of the QEH
Foundation Board, and both he and Carolyn
embraced the hospital’s many fundraising
efforts including the Yuletide Gala Auction
which Bob chaired for one year. Anyone who
took the opportunity to fly to secluded places
like St. Pierre and Micquleon, or spent time
in Nantucket or Boston under the personal
escort of Bob and Carolyn would agree
wholeheartedly they were some of the best
trips, and the memories captured during those
excursions would be forever treasured.
During his time on the Foundation
Board, Bob and Carolyn made an
important decision to purchase a
life insurance policy and named the
QEH Foundation the owner and
beneficiary.
“Bob truly understood the significance of the
QEH in our community,” concludes Carolyn.
“We were so thankful to attend last year’s
gala and see many of our friends and
colleagues. Our family will never forget
the incredible kindness provided to Bob
while he was a patient in the ICU during his
precious last days.”
Bob and Carolyn worked tirelessly to raise the profile
of many charities on PEI. Most importantly, they
helped established the Stars for Life Foundation
which was created to provide a life-long living and
learning experience for young adults with autism.
Have you considered including a charitable gift to the QEH in your estate plans?
Life insurance is one way to make a significant gift in the future. Talk to your professional
advisor about the many benefits of life insurance as part of your legacy. They can advise
you about the best options for your situation, whether transferring ownership of an
existing life insurance policy, purchasing a new life insurance policy, or naming the
Foundation as the beneficiary on your policy or in your Will.
