September for St. Joe's presented by Tim Hortons and Murphy Restaurants is a month-long community wide campaign supporting excellence in care at St. Joseph's Hospital. For 2023 the campaign is supporting new ultrasound technology for Diagnostic Imaging. Most people would recognize Ultrasound technology for it's use in pregnancy, but ultrasound is used as a diagnostic tool for many things, ranging from aneurism detection to locating gallstones, blood clots, breast exams and more. The current units are approaching end of life and the Foundation has committed to raising funds to provide a new ultrasound equipped with modern technology.
Previous campaigns have provided care and comfort items for our Geriatric Inpatient Patients, new equipment and technology for our Orthopaedic joint preservation and reconstruction program. This year funds will be used to purchase new ultrasound technology and will benefit over eight thousand patients annually. The current Ultrasounds purchased in 2013 are nearing end of life, a new ultrasound will require an investment of $120,000. Today, we are asking your consideration in making a donation towards the campaign or becoming one of our community sponsors. |
