Thank report
The QEH Foundation was thrilled to host special friend Brad Richards, who won the Stanley Cup
with the Chicago Blackhawks in June 2015. Richards, along with his wife Rechelle, stopped by for a
visit to meet young patients and their families in the Pediatric Unit at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
There were many big smiles as children met their hero and touched the Stanley Cup in the winterthemed Pediatric Oncology treatment room that features a mural of young hockey players on an
outdoor rink.
Richards has a close connection to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Pediatric Unit; he established
the Brad Richards Foundation endowment fund in 2010 to assist in the purchase of medical
equipment to help children. He made the gift in honour of his cousin and best friend, Jamie Reynolds
who passed away in 1989 as the result of a brain tumour. Jamie was seven years old and Brad
was nine at the time.
Brad’s endowment gift was invested and the income earned each year is directed toward medical
equipment for children’s health at the QEH.

This year concludes our present three-year strategic plan developed
by the QEH Foundation Board of Directors and planning is underway
for our upcoming three-year strategy. Reflecting upon our organization’s achievements, we are extremely proud to see the growth in
our planned giving and major gifts programs. We have been able to strengthen the level of giving
by focusing on being more donor-centred and have also expanded on our signature events. Our
Foundation has seen growth and success over the past three years – an outcome of a focused staff,
supportive Board of Directors, and exceptional donor support. As a result, the Board of Directors is
pleased that one hundred percent of your donation goes to support the purchase of priority medical
equipment for the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
This past year we continued to make strides in fundraising for critical equipment priorities. Our QEH
Friends for Life Campaign chair, Cory Gray, launched the campaign by saying that it was an “easy
decision to make” when he was asked to lead the annual fundraising drive to support our Island
hospital. Many individuals, businesses, groups, and organizations followed suit by making the decision
to give to the QEH Foundation in a number of different ways – from hosting and participating in
special events in support of the QEH Foundation, to responding to our annual fundraising appeal
and our signature events. The Harry MacLauchlan ‘Great Day’ Fore Health Memorial Golf Tournament
was once again a success and our Yuletide Gala Auction and QEH/Eastlink Telethon set new records
for their fundraising totals. From North Cape to East Point awareness, engagement, and dollars were
raised in support of PEI’s main referral hospital.
We closed our year with two very special occasions:
• The Gray Family Foundation’s announcement of a $1 million gift
in support of eye care, a provincial service at the QEH; and
• For a number of young patients from across the province who receive treatment
at the QEH Pediatric Day Unit on a regular basis, hockey star and donor Brad Richards’
visit to the Pediatric Unit with the Stanley Cup was a highlight.
Read more about this within our report.
This is our opportunity to say ‘ThankQ’ to all our donors. It is your
generosity that ensures your Island hospital is well-equipped to help
patients through all levels of healthcare needs. You will see throughout
this report that gifts of all sizes have had a huge impact on the health
of our Island community.
Thank you!

Friends for Life Campaign 2014-15
Every year the QEH Friends for Life Campaign focuses on raising funds to purchase priority medical equipment
to assist the Queen Elizabeth Hospital family in providing the best healthcare possible. In recent years, the Hospital
has undergone extensive renovations resulting in greater space and more efficient treatment areas and the
Foundation has focused on ensuring that the most current equipment is available in this transformed space to
care for all Islanders in times of need.
In 2014-15, a few Campaign priorities were to purchase a Dynamic Adaptive Radiation Therapy (DART) treatment
planning system for the PEI Cancer Treatment Centre; to fund the replacement and upgrade of the Intensive Care
Unit patient monitoring system; and to replace a Nuclear Medicine SPECT/CT Camera in the Diagnostic Imaging
Department.
DART for PEI Cancer Treatment Centre = $328,000
A cancer diagnosis can be devastating. The PEI Cancer Treatment Centre’s holistic approach to cancer care has
been a source of comfort to many Islanders since it opened in 1999.
In 2014-15, the QEH Friends for Life
Campaign was successful in raising the
funds to purchase a DART system for
the PEI Cancer Treatment Centre. The
DART is a high-tech system that allows
radiation treatment to be customized
to account for daily variation in patient
anatomy, ensuring the radiation is
delivered precisely to the affected
tissue with the least exposure possible
to surrounding tissue. This state-ofthe-art software application will be
implemented throughout the year.

ICU Patient Monitoring System = $400,000
Nursing staff and physicians must be able to constantly
and accurately observe the vital signs of all patients
in the Intensive Care Unit. ICU patients are typically
in an unstable condition and any changes must be
addressed immediately. The patient monitoring
system allows staff to continuously monitor all patients
in the Unit.
A new and upgraded patient monitoring system
was among the medical equipment priorities for the
Friends for Life Campaign. Fundraising for this system is
complete and staff and physicians are currently
evaluating systems for implementation in the ICU.
Nuclear Medicine SPECT/CT Camera = $950,000
Diagnostic imaging is the foundation upon which successful treatment for many conditions is based. One of the
best tools for making accurate diagnoses is the Nuclear Medicine SPECT/CT Camera. The QEH Nuclear Medicine
Department requires a new SPECT/CT camera to replace an out-dated model. This camera is an integral part of
day-to-day operations in the Nuclear Medicine Department. With advances in technology, this piece of equipment helps provide accurate diagnoses for cancer, cardiac, and pediatric patients along with a variety of other
important imaging.
This camera was a fundraising priority for
the 19th Annual QEH/Eastlink Telethon
and, thanks to the generosity of donors
from all areas of PEI, we have raised over
$700,000 of the total cost to date. This
campaign continues.

G ray Family Focuses
on Eye Health at the QEH
On June 9, 2015, Wayne Gray, founder of Vogue Optical, announced before a large audience that his family had
decided to make a gift to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital of $1 million.
This gift will establish an endowed fund to support annual purchases of equipment for ophthalmology services
at the QEH. Knowing these funds will be available each year, in perpetuity, allows medical staff to plan for the
future of eye care in our province. In recognition of this inspiring commitment to healthcare in PEI, the new eye
surgical rooms at the QEH will be named The Gray Family Eye Surgery Suite.
The Grays have been supporters of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital for many years. Wayne is a former member of
the QEH Foundation Board and his son Cory has followed in his footsteps as a Board Member and chair of the
2014-15 Friends for Life Campaign. This gift represents the second endowment fund established by the Grays at
the QEH. In 2001, the family made an endowed gift in memory of Wayne’s wife Doreen who received cancer
care at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
Eye Care at the QEH:
• This provincial service which is only available at the QEH includes the
following eye surgical procedures:
- Retinal / Vitrectomy procedures
- Corneal procedures
- Strabismus procedures
- Oculo-plastics procedures
- Repair of eye trauma
- Drainage procedures
•There are approximately 1,600 eye surgeries performed annually at the QEH.
“Over the course of
a weekend, I had a
cataract develop in my
left eye. I was referred
to the QEH for eye surgery with Dr. Drysdale
and the improvement was immediate!
I was really pleased that I didn’t have
to leave PEI for the surgery.”
Vicky Richard, Summerside
“Eye care has become
increasingly important
on PEI because we
have an aging population. This gift will allow us to continue
to make improvements to eye care
services and will enable more people
to remain in their homes and in their
communities.”

QEH Auxiliar y makes
$520,000 Telethon pledge
The QEH Auxiliary has been providing funds and services in support of the patients and staff of the Queen
Elizabeth Hospital since 1981. This year the Auxiliary made a big impact by announcing a $520,000 pledge on-air
at the 2015 QEH/Eastlink Telethon!
The group has chosen to direct the majority of that pledge to the Supply, Processing, and Distribution (SPD)
Department. The staff and services of SPD are imperative to the delivery of safe patient care and the QEH
Auxiliary recognized the importance of their work with a Telethon pledge in 2014 in support of a large-capacity
washer-disinfector and an instrument washer-disinfector.
Their latest gift in support of SPD will equip the
department with an electronic instrument tracking
system. This system provides permanent markings
for individual instruments, allowing for visibility
and traceability throughout the Hospital and full
accountability for every item throughout the entire
cycle from sterilization to return of the
instruments. This level of visibility and traceability is
what CSA defines as part of the complete patient safety
record. The electronic instrument tracking system
costs $275,000.

The remaining $245,000 is earmarked for the
purchase of advanced ophthalmology equipment to
fill an immediate need in the dedicated eye surgery
suites within day surgery.

or volunteer of the QEH Auxiliary, please contact
Wilma at 902-894-2197.

Melvin and wife, Claudette,
at their home in Mont Carmel.
In September of 2013, Melvin Gallant of Mont Carmel was helping fix the foundation of a community
building when the foundation collapsed, the building fell, and Melvin’s left leg was caught and
Melvin Gallant
crushed. He was rushed to the
Queen Elizabeth Hospital where
doctors worked quickly to repair the
damage to his leg. There was concern that he might lose the limb, but with the help of the excellent
medical staff of the QEH, Melvin pulled through with both legs. After recovering from surgery,
he began the long road to rehabilitation and his positive attitude helped things go smoothly.
Today, Melvin says he works ten hour days in a physically demanding job; he walks normally; and
has no pain whatsoever!

Marlene Cairns
After her first diagnosis in 2003, Marlene Cairns has spent the last twelve years living with
breast cancer, but she remains grateful that the services she requires can be received here,
at home, in PEI.
“Being diagnosed with cancer can be, and is, very scary, and it’s really important not to
have that added stress of off-Island travel, and to be able to get your chemotherapy and
radiation treatment here at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.”
Marlene knows her situation isn’t ideal, but approaches her life with a positive outlook and
doesn’t plan on giving up! She says she’s very thankful for the amazing staff at the QEH,
as well as the donors who have helped to equip the Hospital for treatments like hers.
“I am so grateful to everyone who supports the QEH! I can’t thank them enough.”

Nico Kenny
Nico Kenny, from Summerside, was just over two and a half years old when, in September
2014, his mom and dad started to become concerned about his health. Machi Venegas and
David Kenny said the first red flag was Nico’s colour. He was very pale and then began to
show unexplained bruising.
Nico was admitted to Prince County Hospital and when blood tests confirmed the
Kennys’ fears – he had acute lymphocytic leukemia – he was rushed to the Queen Elizabeth
Hospital by ambulance. He was referred to the IWK in Halifax for two weeks of intensive
treatment. Nico and his family were happy to return to Prince Edward Island, where
the treatment plan designed by his doctors at the IWK is delivered by the QEH Pediatric
Day Unit and regular blood tests are performed at PCH.
Nico loves Holly and Hazel, nurses in the QEH Pediatric Day Unit, and his parents are
relieved to know that their son is in such good hands.
“He is a treasure”, says Machi. “And we trust the staff enough to put him in their hands.”

QEH Legacy Society
The QEH Legacy Society was established to recognize those who have planned a future gift to the Queen
Elizabeth Hospital to support the purchase of priority medical equipment. The Society was launched in the fall of
2014 as part of our 30th Anniversary activities.
The Legacy Society recognizes individuals and families who include the QEH Foundation in their estate planning
through a bequest, life insurance, or other planned gift such as shares transfer. If you are interested in
becoming a member of the QEH Legacy Society or learning more, please drop in to the Foundation office located
off the main lobby of the QEH or contact Helen Chapman, Gift Planning Officer at (902) 894-2432. You may also

participate in the future planning needs of the hospital. As a former
staff member I have witnessed first-hand the kindness and compassion
shown to patients by hospital and medical staff. My husband Ivan and I
are pleased to do our part to help ensure future generations will receive
the best possible heath care in PEI.”

Leaving his Legacy
Living in PEI his entire life, Keith Mutch was a very proud Islander who had a warm and
infectious smile. He and his wife Ruth had three children and spent their early years running
a mixed farm in Stratford. Keith went on to become co-owner of Sherwood Estates which he
later subdivided.
Keith had his fair share of experience with the Queen Elizabeth
Hospital. His wife passed away from cancer and both of his
parents had cancer. Keith also needed the hospital on more than
a few occasions.
14
Keith truly believed in the importance of healthcare and
supporting others. His good friend and executor Lloyd Parker
remarked how Keith always spoke highly of the QEH and
knew he gave generously every year. He recalled Keith
saying how fortunate he was, how he enjoyed life, and how,
“This will help the Hospital when I’m gone.”
The QEH Foundation is honoured to recognize J. Keith
Mutch at the Gold Level of giving ($500,000 - $999,999)
on the beautiful donor wall in the main lobby of the Queen
Elizabeth Hospital.
