Highlights of Projects
We’ve Supported
Gin Emergency Trauma Imaging Centre (GINETIC 1)
The Jack Gin Emergency & Trauma Imaging Centre (GINETIC 1) is a specialized diagnostic facility located within the Emergency Department (ER) of Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster, British Columbia, designed to provide rapid access to cutting-edge imaging technology directly within the emergency department, reducing the time needed to transport trauma patients to a separate medical imaging department.
Women and Families Centre
The Women & Families Centre at Union Gospel Mission is a facility providing a “comprehensive continuum of care” for women and children overcoming poverty, homelessness, and addiction.
Gin Emergency Tech Imaging Core (GINETIC 2)
The Gin Emergency Tech Imaging Core (GINETIC 2) is a specialized diagnostic imaging initiative at St. Paul’s Hospital in Vancouver, supported by the St. Paul’s Foundation, focusing on advancing emergency medical imaging through donor-funded technology to improve diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes in critical care settings. This enhances the Emergency Department’s ability to quickly and accurately diagnose complex conditions using state-of-the-art imaging tools.
