THE BCHS EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT Unite to support the Emergency Department We need your help to unite as a community and support our Emergency Department and the local healthcare system. With record numbers of visitors to the ED at the BCHS, the need for essential patient equipment has never been more important than now. A Growing Need The number of patients treated in the BCHS Emergency Department (ED) has grown significantly over the past seven years to the point where today, doctors and nurses routinely administer emergency care to over 156 patients per day, or more than 55,000 patients annually an increase of seven percent over 2015 s numbers and an increase of 38 percent from 2010 when the staff treated an average of 40,000 patients per year. With such an increase in patient volumes, the impact to our medical equipment has been significant. New and replacement patient equipment is needed to address the growing needs of our community. The BCHS Foundation is appealing to our community to invest in the Emergency Department, and we thank you for your support. Together, we are transforming healthcare in our community. 4 BCHS FOUNDATION VINTAGE CARNIVAL
