Together In Care
It’s our heritage
Hospital service in Markdale goes back a century when citizens united to create the first hospital in the area
It’s our track record
We invest in the health and well-being of family and friends, and in the collaboration that delivers better health across Grey Bruce.
It’s our nature
We are neighbours helping neighbours. We welcome visitors in distress. We see beyond town and county lines to act on what’s good for everybody.
It’s our vision
We are not short-term thinkers. Rather, we cherish the generations we haven’t even met. We work to build a dynamic community that will enrich peoples’ lives for decades to come.
It’s our commitment
When we have promises to keep, nothing stops us. We follow through. We persist. We educate, advocate and agitate to create the future we believe our community deserves.
WE ARE ALL TOGETHER IN CARE
Volunteers committed to enhancing health care for us all
In 1998 the hospital established the Centre Grey Health Services Foundation (CGHSF). Immediately it found well qualified and respected community leaders to serve as volunteers on its Board of Directors.
Our mission is to raise, manage and disburse funds to support and enrich quality health care for residents of and visitors to our community.
Centre Grey Health Services Foundation is one of five Foundations that continue to support Grey Bruce Health Services to raise funds for equipment, furniture, IT and education. Each year, the Foundation reaches out to its community to raise between $600,000 - $900,000 in order to keep our local and regional hospitals well equipped and functional.
Together in Care, the campaign for the new Markdale Hospital is sponsored and managed by Centre Grey Health Services Foundation.
A powerhouse of support
Centre Grey General Hospital Auxiliary In 1951, the Centre Grey General Hospital Auxiliary formed to shine a light on the need for community support to enhance health care.
Their first purchases were a toaster and a tea kettle for patients to use. Then, as now, the auxiliary’s mandate was to raise funds in order to provide needed capital items for the hospitals to ensure that patients and their families receive the best care possible.
In addition to fundraising, the auxiliary members provide numerous volunteer services within the hospital. Furthermore they work closely with Centre Grey Health Services Foundation to ensure that our hospital remains well equipped and functional.
