IWK Foundation receives $1M donation for simulated learning

The IWK Foundation is celebrating a $1 million donation towards simulation learning.

This critical investment given by the Kenneth and Dorothy Rowe Foundation will ensure the hospital remains at the forefront of pediatric care.

The simulator will replicate learning by amplifying authentic emergency care scenarios for health care professionals to build their knowledge, skills, and approaches.

Equipped with livestreaming capabilities, the classroom will allow participants to both observe and engage in real-life situations as they are unfolding.

“We are deeply grateful for the generous donation from the Kenneth and Dorothy Rowe Foundation. You are continuing your legacy of giving back to the IWK and your community,” says Jennifer Gillivan, President & CEO, IWK Foundation.

“This thoughtful gift not only supports the dedicated care teams and learners of today but also helps nurture our future leaders of tomorrow. Your investment in education and healthcare will have a lasting impact on our community. Thank you for believing in the IWK.”

This advancement will allow the IWK to deliver leading-edge emergency treatment to patients and their families across the Maritimes.
