McCall MacBain Foundation donates $4 million to help launch Niagara Health Knowledge Institute.
A large donation has been made to help Niagara Health launch a new program.
The McCall MacBain Foundation has pledged $4 million for the Niagara Health Knowledge Institute.
The Institute looks to be a leader in community hospital-based research.
"Research and education play such an important role in two key areas for us as a healthcare provider - improving the quality of care for our patients, and helping us recruit and retain talented healthcare professionals," said Lynn Guerriero, Niagara Health President and CEO. "The NHKI expands our capacity for ground-breaking research, and will help us attract physicians and other frontline workers because it signals our commitment to knowledge generation."
The project, which was over a decade in the making, launched in St. Catharines earlier today.
More information on the program can be found here.
