New equipment and technology will be purchased with a $75 million gift to the San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center's foundation from Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Dr. Priscilla Chan, according to an article on the San Francisco Appeal website.
The money will also complete the hospital’s new acute care and trauma center, which is being rebuilt to address seismic safety concerns.
Some of the money will be spent on smart beds, which can provide nurses with real-time patient information, such as blood pressure and pulse rates, the article said.
The hospital is the only one in San Francisco that provides trauma and psychiatric emergency services to city residents. It serves about 100,000 patients per year.
