Gifts to The Riddle HealthCare Foundation help to support the healthcare
services and programs Riddle Hospital provides to the community.
In recent years, it has become increasingly difficult for community
hospitals like Riddle to fill the gap between rising costs and lower
reimbursement from insurers. Philanthropic support helps to close this
gap and allows Riddle to make significant investments, including:
-
Riddle Health Center 4 was opened February 2010 offering
services that include Rothman Institute, Riddle Fitness
Center, Speech and Hearing, Diabetes Education,
Nutrition Counseling, Audiology Services, The Janet and
George Fullmore Cardiac Rehabilitation Center and a new
Surgi-Center
-
All ambulances in Riddle’s fleet are equipped with new
state-of-the-art EKG Monitors with Blue Tooth technology
to communicate with emergency physicians on the road and
enhance the speed care is delivered
-
Critical training and education in emergency situations
