In the latest episode of the All Hands on Tech podcast, QEII Foundation President and CEO, Susan Mullin, and Dr. David Clarke, a renowned neurosurgeon at the QEII Health Sciences Centre, share how innovation and philanthropy are transforming healthcare in Nova Scotia.
The episode explores the remarkable advancements made possible through community support, including the QEII Foundation’s success in raising $14.7 million to fund five of the six surgical robots currently in use at the QEII Health Sciences Centre. These cutting-edge technologies are revolutionizing patient care across various specialties, including neurosurgery, orthopedics, and cancer treatment. Dr. Clarke describes how these tools not only enhance the precision and safety of complex surgeries but also position Nova Scotia as a leader in healthcare innovation.
The conversation also highlights the role of simulation and virtual reality in modern medicine. Dr. Clarke explains how these technologies are changing the way medical professionals are trained, making it possible for new surgeons to refine their skills in a controlled environment before entering the operating room. This approach not only improves patient safety but also elevates the standard of care.
Mullin emphasizes the critical role of the donor community in driving these advancements. She describes the QEII Foundation as a facilitator, channelling community contributions into tangible healthcare improvements. The result is not just better care for patients but also the recruitment and retention of top medical talent drawn to the opportunity to work with state-of-the-art technology.
The episode concludes with a look toward the future, including plans to establish a Centre of Excellence in Robotics at the QEII. This initiative aims to combine cutting-edge surgical technologies with data-driven research to continue advancing healthcare innovation.
This inspiring discussion underscores the power of community, technology, and philanthropy working together to improve lives!
