LITTLE CURRENT鈥擱ocking their way to a better world. Members of the 澳门三肖三码 Health Centre (MHC) Auxiliary gathered at the hospital鈥檚 Little Current site to present a cheque for $7,607.96 to the hospital for a new vital signs monitor鈥攖he funds represent the proceeds from the auxiliary鈥檚 Rock-a-Thon, supplemented with monies from the In-Memorium Fund.
鈥淲e of the hospital auxiliary are really excited to be able to do this,鈥 said MHC Auxiliary spokesperson Laila Kiviaho, who was seconded from delivering headsets and other items to patients on the floor in order to take part in the presentation. 鈥淭his vital signs monitor is something that can affect you, your family, your friends, everyone in the community. We would not be able to have this without the support of everyone in the community.鈥
鈥淚t is a vital signs monitor, it takes your blood pressure, pulse, monitors your oxygen levels,鈥 explained Ms. Fields. While the machine might be familiar to those attending hospital as 鈥榯he machine that goes beep,鈥 Ms. Fields notes it does far more than simply emitting regular sounds. 鈥淚t makes nursing more efficient in the care we provide and helps keep up with digital health and changes in technology.鈥 As that technology tends to move forward in leaps and bounds, MHC must regularly upgrade and replace that equipment.
鈥淭he fact that the hospital does not receive money for capital purchases, donations such as these go a long way toward helping us provide safe patient care,鈥 said Ms. Fields.
鈥淥n behalf of the board of directors I would like to thank the MHC Auxiliary for all of their hard work and efforts and dedication to MHC,鈥 said Board Chair Dennis McGregor.
