New Mammography Machine For CCH

Local women can breathe a little easier knowing a new mammography machine is coming to the Charlotte County Hospital.

MLA for Charlotte-Campobello tells Tide News this is one of many things that are helping the lives of people in Charlotte County. He points to the new dialysis hours at the hospital, two new doctors coming in next month, and now the mammography machine.

Malloch says breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer among women in New Brunswick -- and this new machine will be an important piece of women's health.

He says the machine has already been ordered and will be here soon, and fundraising efforts are already underway. He says the machine, however,  will be in place before the fundraising is complete.
