The Antigonish Town & County Palliative Care Society relies on donations from people in the community. Without donations, it can’t continue.
Every dollar counts when it comes to helping to pay for the homecare equipment and in-home support required for someone requiring palliative care at home.
With your donations we were able to purchase the following equipment for our patients.
- Leather recliner/lifter chairs
- Cool Mist Humidifiers
- Air-Flow Mattresses
- Bed Rails
- Over Bed Tables
- Contact Alarms
- CAAD pump/pain pumps
- Dose cords for CAAD/pain pumps
- Portable Suction
- Odor Eliminator
- Oxygen concentrators
- Baby Monitors
- Fans
- Commode
- Aerosol Machines (Nebulizer)
- Tub Lift
Plaques were awarded to John R. MacDougall and Anne Marie Long for their years of service, and in particular their determination in seeing the Palliative Care unit become a reality.
