Colchester Hospitals Charity

You CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Charity Name: Colchester Hospitals Charity

CoHoC helps Colchester Hospital University NHS Foundation Trust (the Trust) do more for the patients cared for by its staff. Often, there is a new piece of equipment, more up-to-date technologies, and newer fixtures and fittings that will improve the patients’ environment. It’s these extras – some small, some large – which are above and beyond the scope of the NHS budget that really make a difference to patients and the care that our staff can deliver.
CoHoC works in these key areas:
•    improving the hospital environment for patients and staff
•    new equipment
•    additional staff training and education.
Recent examples of items paid for by voluntary donations include:
•    digital heart scanner for the Special Care Baby Unit (£42,323)
•    more comfortable chairs for patients receiving radiotherapy at Essex County Hospital (£2,979)
•    a water cooler for patients attending clinics (£76)
•    materials for the award-winning Tiptree Box’ which is used to help patients with dementia (£240).
