Proceeds from the Lottery purchased new medical equipment for the Respiratory Therapy Unit. If you or someone you care for has experienced difficulties in breathing, you know the importance that respiratory therapy treatment provides to critically comprised patients suffering chronic lung problems such as asthma, bronchitis, emphysema and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. This also includes therapeutic treatment of more acute symptoms resulting from other critical conditions such as heart attacks, strokes, or trauma. The treatment of debilitating respiratory diseases requires specialized equipment to effectively manage these critically ill patients.
