Overview
The Hope for Wildlife Society has been working hard towards opening Nova Scotia's first Wildlife Veterinary Hospital. Currently, all veterinary care is provided by a hospital 30 minutes away from the centre. Transporting the animals causes unnessessary stress and costs us time and money. We've already acquired much of the necessary equipment for an on-site hospital: our surgical suite and exam area are fully equipped with all the necessary supplies. What we still need is equipment for our diagnostic lab (centrifuge, microscopes, analyzer equipment) and radiology suite. (xray and table) With these final peices of equipment in place, our hospital will be ready for inspection. Our goal is to have the official opening in April 2011.

How will the $100K be used? |

Budget Notes: We're asking for digital x-ray equipment versus film because there is no need for harsh chemicals or film to develop radiographs, which is better for the environment and cuts down on costs. It also produces higher-quality radiographs, which is important for accurate diagnoses. | |
$ 70,000 | digital x-ray |
$ 28,000 | diagnostic lab equipment |
$ 2,000 | 2 microscopes |
