Radiothon

On September 12th, we, at the Burin Peninsula Health Care Foundation, along with our many friends and supporters on the Burin Peninsula, will be coming together once again to celebrate local healthcare initiatives in our region, and raise funds for our local hospitals, right here at home.

This year, funds are being raised to purchase:

A Transport Monitor for the Intensive Care Unit at the Burin Peninsula Health Care Center (Burin), which will be used while transporting cardiac patients to our tertiary center in St. John’s.
A Portable Bladder Scanner for the Burin Peninsula Health Care Center (Burin). A non-invasive way to assess urine retention within the bladder and help prevent non-necessary catheterization of patients.
Adjust-A-Sinks for the long-term care residents’ Hair Salon at US Memorial (St. Lawrence), which will allow residents to remain safely and comfortably seated in their wheelchair while getting their hair washed, as the sink adjusts to them.
Blanket Warmers for the long-term care residents of Blue Crest Nursing Home (Grand Bank).

There are four easy ways to donate:

1) Complete the form below by clicking "DOWNLOAD" and mail it to us with your donation.

2) Donate online by clicking "DONATE" above.
