You are here: Home1 / #HumansFirst

They are humans first, who put other humans first.

They care for the vulnerable, injured, and sick—you, your neighbour, your spouse, your parent.

More than 7,900 caregivers and staff work around the clock at Royal Jubilee, Victoria General, and Gorge Road hospitals. Their commitment and dedication to our community make us safer, now more than ever.

These are their stories.

These stories remind us that a caregiver can also be a mother or a father; they can be a friend; they can have a favorite song; they can have fears; they are human—and, like all of us, they have a story to tell. These are stories told in elevators, waiting areas, cafeterias, and benches outside hospital wings. They are vulnerable, nuanced, honest, and, if only in the smallest of ways, they unite our three hospitals, our care teams and staff, our giving community, and every person who has ever stepped foot inside our local hospitals. #HumansFirst

Impacting care across Vancouver Island.

Our caregivers impact Island communities far and wide. Royal Jubilee and Victoria General hospitals are the Island’s two largest hospitals. As such, they are our referral centres for specialty, advanced and critical care. Over 850,000 Vancouver Island and Gulf Island residents rely on our Victoria hospital heroes.

When you support the Victoria Hospitals Foundation, you’re ensuring the best care for your neighbours—near & far across the Island.

The future of our care depends on what we do today.

You can help ease the strain on our hospitals today and leave a legacy for the future.

Invest in local, world-class care—protect and maintain it through our current challenges into the future. Donate today.

Support Our Care Teams

Our caregivers, facilities, and equipment are being put to the test like never before. This is our time to be there for our hospital heroes. To show our commitment.

The Victoria Hospitals Foundation is proud to support our local medical staff and caregivers, today and since 1989. Forty percent of the equipment they rely on is funded by donations from community heroes just like you.

Nominate a Caring Spirit Award for special caregiver, employee, or entire team that has made a difference to you or our community, by making a donation in their honour.
