ER at South Shore Regional Wins $10K at Giving Circle

Three privacy screens will be coming to the South Shore Regional Hospital's Emergency Deparment, thanks to the attendees of the 2020 Charm Diamond Centres' Women's Giving Circle. 

These privacy screens will help with the crowding in South Shore Regional's Emergency Department. The screens will be used to turn the current ER waiting area into a "chair care" area for patients, while the waiting room will temporarily move into the hospital's gift shoppe space.  

While this is the Health Services Foundation's 7th Women's Giving Circle, it was their first attempt at a virtual fundraising event, in light of the global pandemic. 

Over 100 people purchase tickets to the virtual Giving Circle and participated in the online auction, still raising just over $10,000.
