Langley Community Health & Hospital Foundation is actively fundraising for a state-of-the-art X-ray machine to replace one of the two X-ray machines in continual use in LMH’s Imaging unit.
The unit currently operates with two X-ray machines in continual use. However, the newest machine was acquired in 2009: at 15 years old, it’s well past its average 10-year lifespan. Frequent breakdowns of both aging X-ray machines force patients to wait for two hours or more and frustrate technologists and radiologists.
The need is urgent. Trauma admissions at LMH’s Emergency Department grew by 31.7 percent over the last year and ambulatory X-ray scans increased by 31.2 percent during that same time. X-ray imagery is instrumental in diagnosing injuries and abnormalities that could be early signals of cancer.
With your generous support, the purchase of a new X-ray machine will help improve image quality for more accurate diagnoses and less radiation exposure, prevent long waits and provide a more user-friendly experience for Imaging technologists.
Thank you from all our partners and Langley Community Health & Hospital Foundation.
