Holiday cheer has been delivered to Victoria General Hospital workers.
The hospital auxiliary presented ICU staff with poinsettias Monday as part of its Poinsettias for Patients campaign.“These are thank-you poinsettias where the community has donated money so that we would buy a poinsettia and give it to staff in the three ICUs,” says Val Smith, past president and campaigner for the Victoria General Hospital Auxiliary.
Each staff member who receives a poinsettia will also get a personalized thank-you card stating why the donor is grateful for their work.Proceeds from this year’s Poinsettias for Patients campaign fundraiser will help purchase a medical device called a Bilicheck for $10,000. A Bilicheck allows doctors to assess the risk of jaundice in newborns using light instead of a needle.
Poinsettias for Patients started in 2010 and has provided such things as a very expensive and complicated stretcher for the emergency room, a treadmill, and renovations to the ambulatory lab where kids get their blood taken.
