For patients with brain and spinal cord injuries, early access to advanced rehabilitation is critical to recovery. It’s also hard to get. Currently, the wait to be transferred to an inpatient rehab facility is between two weeks to a month.

With your support, a state-of-the-art Neuro Rehabilitation Innovation Centre will be added at the University of Alberta Hospital. This will give patients with potentially debilitating neurologic conditions timely access to intensive rehab treatments and improve their chances for a full recovery.

Festival of Trees has raised over $23 million for critically important causes at the University of Alberta Hospital site. From bringing incision-free brain surgery technology to Edmonton to expanding intensive care for cardiac patients, funds raised have impacted patients from head to toe, inside and out.
