Radiography on Wheels

Radiography on Wheels is a pilot research project that offers mobile x-ray services to Nursing Homes and Special Care Homes at participating sites in Saint John and surrounding areas. The project is a collaboration between Loch Lomond Villa and the University of New Brunswick (Saint John). Radiography on Wheels is funded through the Healthy Seniors Pilot Project grants provided by the federal government. The project aims to increase access to diagnostic services in New Brunswick Nursing Homes and Special Care Homes. We anticipate that the service will avoid unnecessary resident transfer to the hospital and enhance person-centered care.
