The Guthrie County Hospital Auxiliary recently donated funds to the Emergency Department to purchase a new infant/toddler scale and cart.
“We are thankful for the support the GCH Auxiliary has provided to help purchase a new infant scale for our emergency department,” Jackie Willms, director of pharmacy, said. “The new infant scale will help our nursing staff obtain accurate weight measurements of some of our smallest patients. Having accurate weights in this population is very important as medications for infants and toddlers are dosed based on the patient’s weight. We cannot thank the GCH Auxiliary enough for their generosity and acknowledgment of the importance of medication safety.”
“The GCH Auxiliary is excited to purchase a new infant/toddler scale and cart for the Emergency Department,” Danielle Lauzon, GCH auxiliary president, said. “Our goal is to support the hospital departments in a way that directly impacts patient experience and improves daily workflows for employees. The Auxiliary is thankful for the generous donations received during our annual fundraising events that make these purchases possible.”
