Jim Pattison Centre for Health Systems Learning and Innovation Opens at Kelowna General Hospital

In 2025, Kelowna saw the launch of a new facility funded by the Jim Pattison donation, designed to foster collaboration among healthcare professionals and drive innovative solutions.
The centre launched a year and a half after the Jim Pattison Foundation donated $5 million to the KGH Foundation to support healthcare innovation.
The centre unites clinicians, researchers, educators, and policymakers to break down silos and build solutions improving care delivery across the Southern Interior.
Dr. Deanna Taylor was appointed as the first executive director, stating she feels honored and looks forward to conversations that will realize the centre’s mission.
The centre aims to attract essential healthcare talent to the region, potentially aiding Kelowna and the Interior amid challenges like the KGH pediatrics unit shutdown.
