Arnot Health lands grants for equipment purchases

ELMIRA  —  Arnot Health recently received several grants to use toward purchasing a new evaluation and treatment kit and a new portable ultrasound system for its emergency department.

A grant from the Douglas G. Anderson-Leigh R. Evans Foundation, Inc., which is sponsored by the Elmira manufacturer Hardinge Inc. (NASDAQ: HDNG), put $5,000 toward the purchase of a Saebo evaluation and treatment kit for St. Joseph’s Hospital’s renovated rehabilitation center in Elmira. Arnot Health believes the kit, which has a total cost of $7,500, will help patients recover from neurological injuries like strokes.

Two other grants totaled $22,000 for the ultrasound system. The Anderson Foundation provided $12,000, while the Hilliard Foundation awarded $10,000 for the equipment.

The ultrasound system allows medical staff to view and print images on location. Arnot Health estimates the system, which comes with a total price tag of about $58,000 will be used five to six times a day. That translates to 2,000 times a year.

Arnot Health is a nonprofit regional health-care system with three hospitals serving the Southern Tier of New York and the Northern Tier of Pennsylvania. It has a total of 709 licensed beds and more than 300 physicians.
