New Mobile Stretchers Purchased with Annual Giving Funds

February 1, 2017

The Hammond-Henry Hospital Foundation Annual Giving Project was geared towards raising funds for the Emergency Department to purchase seven new mobile stretchers with a fundraising goal of $44,000.  With the wonderful community support we received, we were able to exceed our goal raising $48,520 and purchased an additional stretcher.

This project helps continue our efforts to provide excellent patient care to our community. The new stretchers will enhance patient comfort with a mattress that offers superior pressure redistribution and reduces the risk of falls and physical strain on the clinicians transporting patients.
