May 12, 2021<\/strong> \u2013 The\npopulation of the Chaleur and Acadian Peninsula regions responded to the call\nto mobilize for the fight against cancer and for the continuous improvement of\nhealth care at home first. The Roses Radiothon, an event organized by the\nAcadie-Bathurst Hospital Foundations, was held on Friday, April 30, and this\nfifteenth edition, whose objective was $175,000, was largely achieved by\nraising the record amount of more than $239,503. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Radiothon\nwas broadcast on CKLE 92.9, CKRO 97.1 and MAX 104.9 radio stations throughout\nthe day. We were able to hear many testimonials to demonstrate the importance\nof health care at home first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\nchairpersons, Mona Losier, Chaleur Regional Hospital Foundation, Joseph\nLanteigne and Annie Gauvin, Fondation H\u00f4pital de l\u2019Enfant-J\u00e9sus of Caraquet,\nMarie-Jeanne No\u00ebl, La Fondation de l\u2019H\u00f4pital de Lam\u00e8que Inc. and Eric\nRobichaud, Fondation Les Amis de l\u2019H\u00f4pital of Tracadie were all on the job in\ntheir communities on the day of the Rose Radiothon and all agree that \u201cWe are\nvery touched by the response of our communities. Despite the pandemic, we\npromised that we would be there, more than ever. Last year, most of the\nactivities surrounding the Roses Radiothon were cancelled due to the pandemic,\nbut we are back in full force to support the people in our community who are\ncontinuing their battle against cancer. Last year, most of the activities\nsurrounding the Roses Radiothon were cancelled due to the pandemic, but we are\nback in full force to support the people in our community who are continuing\ntheir battle against cancer. In addition, we must thank our partners, l’Acadie\nNouvelle, CKLE 92.9, CKRO 97.1 and Max 104.9 who supported us in the\nbroadcasting of the event.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. John\nLeBlanc, in his testimony added, “For our hospitals, fundraising campaigns\nsuch as the Roses Radiothon, not only allows us to become leaders, but also to\nput forward new initiatives that would not otherwise be possible. For example,\nthe acquisition of a very sophisticated ultrasound will be dedicated to breast\nultrasound and we are the first in the province to acquire it at the Chaleur\nRegional Hospital.  In addition, the\nRoses Radiothon allows hospitals of the Acadian Peninsula to acquire equipment\nspecific to the needs of health care institutions. For Caraquet, investments\nwill be made in the rehabilitation, medical imaging and medicine sectors. For\nLam\u00e8que, it is a contribution to the expansion project at the Family Medicine\nUnit (FMU) and in Tracadie, palliative care, the endoscopy clinic and the\nelectrodiagnostic clinic will receive funding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This new record amount now\nrepresents over $2.6 million that has been raised over the years.  The donations raised truly make a difference\nin people’s lives by providing access to quality health care close to home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
