Kelsey Trail to get CT scanner
Melfort will be the site for the Kelsey Trail Health Region’s first CT services.
“We were very excited and pleased by the announcement,” said Kevin Phillips, Mayor of Melfort.
A total of $500,000 for the renovation and installation of the equipment came as part of the Ministry of Health’s $133 million commitment to health care.
Health Region CEO, Glen Kozak, said they only started working on the application proposal for the machine about six weeks ago.
“We’re a little surprised the announcement came so soon, but we’re very happy about it,” he said.
