Bennett and Albert County Health Care Foundation (BACH) support programs and activities that address
health and wellness issues throughout the communities. Sometimes, however, we need services that
are not available at the Health Centre. That is why the Bennett and Albert County Health Care (BACH)
Foundation contributes to the Friends of the Moncton Hospital, as well as to the Albert County Health
and Wellness Centre.
With support from the BACH Foundation and other donors, contributions have been made to assist the Friends of the Moncton Hospital to buy equipment that provides rural Albert County residents with the best health services at the Moncton Hospital. The equipment helps the Moncton Hospital :
Monitor people in their own homes by TeleHomeCare;
Diagnose sick and fragile babies, including premature babies;
Provide Ortho surgery, such as hip and knee surgery;
Diagnose fetal complications in pregnant women;
Provide mammograms;
Identify, treat and help people prevent heart problems;
Diagnose cancers of the lung, esophagus, stomach, rectum and pancreas using Endoscopic
Ultrasound (EUS);
Diagnose osteoporosis in its early stages using a Bone Densitometer;
Bring services for chronically ill children into a single, child and family-friendly location at the new Pediatric Ambulatory Care Clinic.
The Bennett and Albert County Health Care Foundation support the healthcare of the people in rural Albert County. The support starts with education and treatment at our local community health centre and continues when we need to go to the Moncton Hospital for advanced tests and treatments.
