 Thank you for your support of our 2025 Radiothon on Wednesday, May 28th from 12pm to 4pm in partnership with the VOCM Cares Foundation. Thanks to your generosity, we raised over $178,000 for our "Closer Care" campaign, helping bring essential medical care closer to home—so families can stay together when it matters most.

 

This year, proceeds from our Radiothon will support the following healthcare enhancements:

A new Point-of-Care Ultrasound System for the Obstetrical Department at the BPHC, assisting moms and babies during assessments or induction of labour.

Upgrades to the Palliative Care Room at Blue Crest Nursing Home, creating a holistic space that supports residents, families and caregivers.

A Bladder Scanner for the US Memorial Long-Term Care Facility, helping to assess and determine the need for catheterization in long-term care residents and dementia patients.

Our Patient Comfort & Care Program, assisting local patients in need with medical transportation assistance, including gas and meal cards, taxi vouchers, and accommodations.

 


We thank you for your continued support of local healthcare at home on the Burin Peninsula.
