The HGH Foundations Current Fundraising Priority: Theres No Place Like Home

Thanks to the expansive and accessible layout of our new hospital, as well as the new CT scanner and MRI machine, HGH is enhancing its services in orthopedic surgery, ophthalmology, urology and nuclear medicine. This focus reflects the most pressing and increasing needs of the local population.

Community support will continue to help ensure that new medical equipment is available to meet the regions healthcare needs and to make the most of the recent redevelopment and expansion at HGH. As the community grows, so will HGHs ability to expand services and programs to continue to provide more healthcare closer to home.

The HGH Foundation will first focus on helping support the development of HGHs new Orthopedic Program. Orthopedics really is a specialty that affects everyone. No one is immune to a fracture or injury.

And as we age, our joints often deteriorate making normal daily activities difficult and ruining our quality of life, says Dr. Chris Kennedy, an orthopedic surgeon who is helping develop the Orthopedic Program at HGH. The reality is that when youre in pain, travelling to Ottawa for multiple appointments is difficult and even the chores of daily life can be excruciating.

That is why HGH and its Foundation are working to bring orthopedic services closer to home. The HGH Foundation is now seeking the communitys support to fully equip HGHs operating theatres with the specialized equipment needed to perform orthopedic surgeries in Hawkesbury.

The HGH Foundations mission is to raise funds in order to improve the care and services offered to the community by the Hawkesbury and District General Hospital.
