The Waterloo Adventist Hospital provides some of the highest quality care in the country to thousands of people per month. However, 70% of our patients cannot pay their full bill. We work hard to make sure our prices are low even when compared to government-subsidized hospitals. Because our hospital never turns anyone away, revenue from our patients cannot maintain all the costs of the hospital operations and development without external support.
Please consider one of the following gift items:
Malaria Treatment
Often, parents cannot afford treatment. So they do not bring their children to the hospital until they are having seizures. For a one time donation, you can provide malaria treatment for one child.
Specialty Clinics
Many diseases like Sickle Cell or Type 1 Diabetes aren’t well controlled because of poor access to trained physicians or rare medicines. Donations will fund medicines, labs, and specialty clinic days to help extend the lifespan of these patients.
COVID Relief
Help support both renovations and continued operation of the hospital during this difficult time.
Chart Filing System
The outdated filing system is both difficult to use and frequently makes charts impossible to find. We are in need of modernization.
Staff Salary
The staff are the backbone of the hospital. Because many of our patients can’t even pay for our reduced fees, salary issues make retention difficult for our most educated staff, especially nurses.
Equipment Maintenance
AHI has sponsored one of our staff to become certified in Biomedical Engineering. This allows the hospital to have the expertise to fix any of its broken equipment. However, every good work requires good instruments
