What’s in a Name?

Partners in Caring is now the Arnprior Regional Health Foundation. Our board of directors has completed the final steps to change the name. The new name better reflects our association with Arnprior Regional Health, the corporation that oversees the Arnprior Hospital, The Grove Nursing Home, The Primary Health Care Center and Community Based Services.


 

Your Foundation News

Helping the Grove Grow!

Exciting news! The Provincial Government has approved the expansion of the Grove Nursing Home from 60 to 96 long term care beds. This $24 million project will be partially funded by the government with the Arnprior Regional Health Foundation working with our local community to raise $5 million ($4 million is needed for the Grove and $1 million for Hospital and Grove medical equipment). More news will follow in the months ahead.


 

Equipment Funding

It’s Not What You Think!

It’s a common misconception that the government pays for new medical equipment at our hospital and nursing home. They don’t! Each year the Foundation fundraises to help Arnprior Regional Health purchase new equipment. Your gift helps fund these purchases.

Donor Spotlight

Miche McKenna has been a loyal donor to the Arnprior Regional Health Foundation since 2007. She often tells her friends and neighbours about our wonderful hospital and the great care she received, first from the late Dr. Jose Gutauskus and currently from his daughter, Dr. Andrea Gutauskas. Miche loves the proximity of the hospital to her home in Kinburn and the number of specialists she and her husband have access to. THANK YOU MICHE!


Never Too Young!

The Spratt children are the inaugural recipients of the Junior Ambassadors Program.

It encourages friends of the Hospital and Grove Nursing Home to raise awareness and money for both organizations. Eldest daughter Aayla held a “Donation for Donation Party” and her younger brother, Nowle and sister, Mara, followed suit. The Spratt children asked that the $370 they raised be put toward the purchase of a new hospital bed.


Turning 75

In 2020, the Hospital will celebrate its 75th anniversary. We are looking for volunteers to organize archival materials and to help plan the celebrations.

Please contact Christine Waite at 613-623-3166 Ext. 362 for more information.

 

 

 

 


In Memory of Penny Stashick

When Larry Stashick’s wife, Penny, suddenly passed away from cancer, he and his family decided to raise money in her memory for the Arnprior Regional Health Foundation. $1,000 was raised to fund a vital sign monitor. In December of 2018, the family held the 1st annual “Penny Stashick Ugly Christmas Sweater Walk” with great success, raising $21,000.00 to support the purchase of medical equipment.

What We Do

What Will Your Legacy Be?

There are many ways to support the Arnprior Regional Health Foundation to ensure cutting edge medical equipment is available now and in the future for the Hospital and Grove Nursing Home. By considering a legacy (or planned) gift you can preserve your assets and lifestyle while committing to a larger gift on your passing.
