Trees of Hope

Please listen to Nicole’s holiday message below and help us purchase a new CT Scanner!

GIVE THE GIFT OF A NEW CT SCANNER

Make a gift in Honour or in Memory of a loved one, and your sentiment card will be placed on our Trees of Hope. All gifts received will help Haldimand War Memorial Hospital purchase a new CT Scanner. Your gifts – no matter the size – will help to ensure our friends and family receive the best possible care right here at home!

The most important uses of the CT scanner for a small community hospital like ours would be:

• ED Traumas to quickly determine internal injuries
• Cancer Screening and cancer follow up
• Fracture assessments when they are too subtle to see on an x-ray
• Pulmonary Embolism studies to assess urgent treatment issue
• Head trauma brain bleeds or signs of acute stroke

There were 10000CT scans performed in the last two years at HWMH which is the only CT Scanner in Haldimand County.  A new CT Scanner will mean better, more accurate diagnoses, as well as faster turnaround times on tests and procedures.

With your help, we can fill this critical need for the 48,000 people who call Haldimand home.
