The auxiliary announced its annual donation to the hospital, this year contributing more than $31,000. Vice President of Patient Care Susan Mangini displayed four pieces of new medical equipment that the hospital purchased using the auxiliary's donation. New equipment includes an epidural infusion pump, a chair scale, a LifePak 12 portable defibrillator/monitor and a volume ventilator. The auxiliary raises funds for the hospital through gift shop proceeds, raffles, bake sales and other fund-raising efforts throughout the year. Auxiliary President Gertrude Williams, along with Kathleen Harrington, vice president of human resources, presented pins to 27 volunteers in recognition of long-standing service, including four individuals with more than 10,000 volunteer hours logged. Ruth Crimp and Ruth Ford were recognized for 10,000 of service, past-president Norma Bowman celebrated 14,000 hours, and gift shop volunteer Ellen Shea topped the list with 26,000 hours. Hospital President Joseph Morrissey also took the podium to thank the auxiliary. "We are indebted to our volunteers for the vital role they play in the daily operations of Milton Hospital, including transportation, reception, clerical duties, managing the gift shop, and the countless other duties they are called upon to carry out," Morrissey said. The Milton Hospital Auxiliary was incorporated in 1950. For information about becoming a volunteer at Milton Hospital, please call the Auxiliary Office at 617-696-4600, extension 1199.
