SLMHC Health Care

Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win(SLMHC) and SLMHC Foundation representatives officially break ground for Sioux Lookout's first ever MRI on September 16.

The 2025 Home Hardware Skip to Equip is set to take place November 7-9 at the Sioux Lookout Golf and Curling Club.

Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre (SLMHC) and the SLMHC Foundation are excited to announce construction will begin on the MRI starting Tuesday, September 16.

We are excited to share our progress to date and the growing impact of your support. Since the MRI Campaign was launched in December of 2023, the generosity shown by you, our donors, the first MRI unit to the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre (SLMHC) will now be a reality. The construction to house the unit will begin this July, with the first MRI scan estimated to take place August 2026.

Thank you, Sioux Lookout and region, your generosity is helping SLMHC to continue to be The Hub of Medical Excellence for the North! If you are following other hospital fundraising campaigns in the region, the fundraising is ongoing so as not to be reactionary and ensuring there is funding to keep our hospitals up to date.  Every community wants the best access to top of the line equipment, to be able to offer our medical professionals state of the art technology in which to provide us with quick, efficient testing and results.   What does it mean when we say … keeping quality healthcare close to home?  It means that when you choose to donate to a fundraising cause for the hospital here in Sioux Lookout, your donation will help fund specialized equipment purchases in one of the many departments looking to upgrade to state of the art technology.  This means that our loved ones – family, friends, neighbours, co-workers are taken care of in the sincerest way.  Our goal at the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre Foundation is to be able to provide relief, less stress and increased comfort for those in need of testing, surgery and aftercare – not having to take time off work and the added stress of travel out of the community for testing, surgeries and treatments.  To be able to have your family by your side during your healthcare journey.
