BUH Foundation Monthly Lottory Ticket Sales Start Next Week
Battlefords Union Hospital (BUH) Foundation’s Monthly Lottery tickets will be available starting Tuesday, February 20, 2018.
This starts another year of winning with BUH Foundation and tickets will be available at the BUH Foundation office and BUH Foundation “Gratefully Yours” Gift & Food Shop at the hospital and new this year, online through buhfoundation.com.
Proceeds of the 2018-2019 Monthly Lottery have been allocated towards the purchase of a new Pulmonary Function Unit for Respiratory Therapy at BUH. A Pulmonary Function Unit measures how well a patient’s lungs are working. This includes how well patients are able to breathe and how effective their lungs are at bringing oxygen to the rest of their body.
Patients that may benefit from this new unit are those having symptoms of lung problems, those regularly exposed to certain substances in the workplace, those with chronic lung disease, such as asthma or COPD, and those requiring an assessment of how well their lungs are working prior to having surgery.
