At BC Women’s Health Foundation, we proudly support the life-changing care provided by BC Women’s Hospital + Health Centre. Together, we continually seek new and innovative ways to transform healthcare for the women who walk through our hospital doors.
While state-of-the-art equipment, facilities, and dedicated medical professionals are critical to patient well-being, we recognize that healing extends beyond these mainstays of medical care. The environment in which care is provided significantly influences the emotional, psychological, and even physical well-being of patients, their families and hospital staff.
With this in mind, we are proud to announce the launch of the BC Women’s Health Foundation Art Collection. This carefully curated selection of artworks will create an inspiring, inclusive and welcoming atmosphere for patients and their families as they embark on their healthcare journeys. The collection, showcasing the contemporary work of Canadian and international artists, will be thoughtfully integrated throughout our public and clinical spaces, enriching the hospital experience and supporting a more human-centred model of care for everyone.
Research indicates that exposure to art in healthcare settings can significantly reduce stress, promote healing, and improve patient outcomes. Art has the power to create moments of peace, reflection, and hope—features that are essential to quality care. For patients, their loved ones, and the medical teams that serve them, this collection will provide comfort and connection during uncertain times.
