OUR HOSPITALS:
Past Present and Future
Sunday, April 27th 2-4pm

Our next Talk & Tea is
"Our Hospitals: Past Present and Future"
with Dr Ambrose Marsh,
Fundraising Campaign Chair,
Saanich Peninsula Hospital & Healthcare Foundation
Do you remember Resthaven Hospital? Designed by Samuel McClure, it was built on Sheep Island in Tsehum Harbour, with a bridge to connect it to Sidney. Resthaven served as a military hospital until it was bought by the Seventh-day Adventist Church, when it was run as an Adventist health institution from 1921 to 1978.
The Saanich Peninsula Hospital opened its doors
on February 8th, 1974. Since then, SPH has provided
ambulatory, diagnostic and surgical services, maternity,
emergency, inpatient, palliative, and long-term care
to community residents.
Dr Marsh will provide us a look back, and a look forward,
to our Saanich Peninsula hospitals!
Join us on Sunday April 27th, at 2pm, in the Log Cabin Museum.
(one block north of the Prairie Inn, Saanichton)
The public is welcome: $10 at door, $7 for members.
Tea will be served after the talk.
