3 As Manager of Labs for Wellington Health Care Alliance, I witness amazing work done in our labs. This year the lab at Louise Marshall Hospital (LMH) needs several upgrades. The Foundation added these projects to its annual equipment list and now seeks community support so we can maintain an efficient lab at our local hospital. The Ontario government provides funding for operating costs to hospitals; however little funding is designated for new equipment. Generous donations from our community for equipment is essential. My wish this Christmas is that you consider supporting the equipment projects for our lab as described in this Wish Book. Thank you in advance for considering and supporting good health in your community. Wishing you all the best for the Holiday Season... Brenda Brenda Holliday Brenda Holliday is Manager of the Labs for Wellington Health Care Alliance.
