One Life —
Your Life
The Life
of Another
From the
day you were born you are distinct, unique and
special and will remain that way. Leading healthy,
happy lives will add to keeping you special through
all phases of life.
However, during the journey, You, Loved Ones,
Friends, Those you care about so very much may
have a time during which nuclear medicine assessment
may be needed.
To meet that need for you
and everyone our goal is:
“Peace of Mind” –
knowing that Leading Edge Medical Technology,
Privacy / Comfort is There When You Need It!
The Foundation
recently concluded a Nuclear Medicine Campaign In
order to help meet the 21st century
nuclear medicine demands at Houlton Regional
Hospital. This campaign assisted in assuring that
the nuclear medicine department is fast-paced,
capable of keeping up with emerging technology as
well as providing comfort and privacy patients
deserve.
Outcome:
$602,000 was
awarded Houlton Regional Hospital to purchase
state-of-the-art Nuclear Medicine Imaging Equipment,
and assist with the expansion and renovation of the
Nuclear Medicine Department in order to address
serious privacy/comfort issues.
The nuclear medicine department handles
approximately 2000 patients each year and now with a
camera that will do scans in minutes vs. hours; more
patients can be accommodated each day thereby giving
the hospital the ability to serve a larger
population. In addition to this new equipment, it
was vital that the department have
adequate testing, privacy/comfort space in order to
meet the growing demand.
With new equipment
and space for the Nuclear Medicine Department,
Houlton Regional Hospital will continue the high
quality of healthcare known throughout its service
area. |
