COVID-19 response fund established

From Memorial Hospital of Sweetwater County

During this unfamiliar and challenging time, healthcare agencies and their providers admire the way our community has stepped up with support.

Anticipating an increase in local COVID-19 cases, the community’s efforts are greatly appreciated. The Memorial Hospital of Sweetwater County staff is grateful to all of the individuals, businesses and industry who have donated Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), homemade masks and gowns, and other thoughtful gifts.

“The outpouring of support has been truly amazing,” said MHSC CEO Irene Richardson. “We are so thankful for each and every donation the hospital has received and very honored to serve such a kind and compassionate community. 

As MHSC continues to prepare for potential positive COVID-19 cases, the Memorial Hospital Foundation has created the “COVID-19 Response Fund” for those who wish to support the hospital with a monetary donation.

“We understand that many in our community are facing hard times as we do our best with social distancing,” said Charlie Van Over, Memorial Hospital Foundation President. “Knowing that, we are honored that even in these hard times, the community has come forward wanting to support our hospital in any way they can.”

Donations received will go directly to support preparation and equipment needs.

Ensuring the staff has the necessary tools to provide patient care for COVID-19 positive patients. For more information, contact Janae Gale, Community Outreach and Volunteer Services Director, at 307-352-8418.
