Cause

Your raffle ticket purchase has the power to help fund sophisticated technology and new equipment for our hospitals.

This holiday season, join OCEAN 98.5 in supporting our dedicated care teams and hospitals, and help us raise funds for the Imaging is Power campaign. Between Royal Jubilee and Victoria General hospitals, 500 people receive scheduled scans each day. As the two referral sites for specialized care for all Vancouver Islanders, medical imaging never stops in the hospitals, nor do care teams. Together, we can ensure radiologists and care team members, as well as patients, have access to reliable, state-of-the-art technology.

This campaign will upgrade six pieces of priority imaging equipment at Royal Jubilee, and Victoria General hospitals: 3 MRIs, 1 CT, 1 SPECT/CT Nuclear Medicine Scanner and 1 C-Arm.
