Bruce Peninsula Hospitals Foundation

Bruce Peninsula Hospitals Foundation Bruce Peninsula Hospitals Foundation raises funds to assist in meeting the health care needs of the people of the Bruce Peninsula area.

The year 1989 saw the formation of the Bruce Peninsula Health Services Foundation Committee for the purpose of serving the people of the Bruce by linking the communities' financial capabilities with the best possible care provided through the Wiarton and Lion's Head Hospitals and the Tobermory Clinic. On September 25, 1997, to assure funds raised locally would be used locally, the Foundation was incorporated as an independent entity governed by a Board of Directors of 9 people representing all areas of the Peninsula. In 2009 Bruce Peninsula Health Services Foundation Board invited healthcare groups from Sauble Beach, Wiarton, Lion's Head and Tobermory to meet with our Board of Directors and staff to provide an overview of their operations and to help us determine the working relationship between these groups and our Foundation. Thus, the mission statement of Bruce Peninsula Health Services Foundation was changed to be more inclusive and now reads "to assist in meeting the health care needs of the people of the Bruce Peninsula area". The Provincial Ministry of Health does not provide all the funding required by today's hospitals for up-to-date technology and facilities. The funds must therefore come from the people who use the services. Our Foundation supports two Grey Bruce Health Services Hospitals - Lion's Head and Wiarton, and has a special relationship with the Sauble and Peninsula Family Health Teams.

Thank you, Hayden Hellyer and the Sauble Beach Party team!

Thanks to proceeds from the August 29–30 festival, Hayden donated $6,600 to Bruce Peninsula Hospitals Foundation!

This generous gift will help fund Automated Dispensary Units at Brightshores Health System – Wiarton Hospital, improving medication safety and efficiency for patients. Hayden shared:

“The Bruce Peninsula Hospital Foundation and specifically the Wiarton Hospital, has played a tremendous role in aiding both of my grandmothers in the 2025 calendar year. I am very thankful for this, along with the amazing support & help from the hospital staff in organizing the parking structure at the Beach Party this year. Without the volunteers from the Hospital Foundation, events like this are not possible. I encourage anyone looking to make a donation to a foundation this holiday season, to consider the BP Hospital Foundation.”

We’re so grateful for Hayden’s support—and for our incredible BPH Foundation volunteers who helped make the festival a success!

As the holiday season arrives, we reflect on a year filled with generosity, progress, and heartfelt community support. Your contributions—whether large or small—have empowered our doctors, nurses, and hospital staff to deliver exceptional care to patients across the Peninsula.

This past year, donor generosity funded:
• New hospital beds
• Emergency department and lab improvements
• A crucial nurse call bell system, and more

And last holiday season, our donors generously came together to raise the funds needed for:
• 10 portable cardiac monitors for Brightshores Wiarton Hospital
• An infant warmer for the emergency department at Brightshores Lion’s Head Hospital

Our loyal donors also contributed to the successful funding of the new CT scanner now operational at Brightshores Owen Sound—benefiting patients across the entire Grey/Bruce region.

Thank you for making these advancements in local healthcare possible.

This year, Brightshores is investing in Automated Dispensing Units (ADUs) at all 6 hospitals—an exciting step forward in our commitment to high-quality, safe patient care.

ADUs use touch screens and barcode technology to ensure patients receive their medications quickly and accurately. These advanced systems:

• Provide fast access to emergency medications
• Track inventory and alert pharmacy staff of low stock
• Improve patient safety and operational efficiency
• Give nurses and pharmacy staff more time to focus on patient care

This holiday season, we are asking our community to come together to raise $650,000 to outfit Brightshores Wiarton and Lion’s Head Hospitals with this life-saving technology.
