Share

On Friday, January 8, 2021, the Sheridan Memorial Hospital Auxiliary voted unanimously to pledge $50,000 to the Transitional Care Expansion at Sheridan Memorial Hospital. With this gift, the Auxiliary has given $724,000 to Sheridan Memorial Hospital since 1991.

With a mission “to provide comfort to and better the welfare of Sheridan Memorial Hospital’s patients,” The Auxiliary Board members voted on the opportunity that best exemplified their purpose. This year’s funds will impact patient care throughout the hospital by going to the Transitional Care Unit (TCU), as this service is a multi-disciplinary team made numerous departments. The TCU team includes Nursing, Physical, Occupational, Speech and Respiratory Therapy, Case Management and Social Services, Nutritional Services, Wound Care, and more.

Foundation Director of Donor Relations – Ada Kirven, Development Coordinator – Jasmine Slater, and Chief Development Officer – Cody Sinclair gratefully accepted the gift presented on behalf of the numerous departments who will be positively impacted by this contribution.
