A request was made to the League for funding to purchase medical equipment to support the new Same Day Emergency Treatment Centre. This new service was set up to stream-line the number of patients attending the Emergency Department by referring them to the appropriate practitioner or for them to be discharged with e.g. an Out Patient Appointment.
The items included 2 x sphygs; a bladder scanner, a defibrillator, 9 x ophthalmoscopes/oroscopes and a CPAP machine (to provide Continuous Positive Airway Pressure).
Total Donation Value: £26,560.50
