 Mount St. John\u2019s Medical Centre (MSJMC)<\/em> Oncology Unit was recently gifted a medication refrigerator by the Friends of Mount St. John\u2019s Medical Centre (FoMSJMC).<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This donation was valued at just under $10,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many of the medications used by our patients with cancer have specific storage requirements to ensure drug stability and integrity,\u201d said Salma Crump Head of Marketing & Communication at MSJMC.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur hospital had been experiencing challenges with our refrigerated storage facilities for oncology – And as we would expect of any friend \u2013 FoMSJMC did not hesitate when we asked for their assistance with sourcing a refrigerator. We\u2019re grateful for partners like FoMSJMC that we can depend on when we really need them.\u201d <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Said Dwayana Derrick President of FoMSJMC; \u201cThis is what we do\u2026 Help the hospital. And it gives all of us immense joy to do so. The funds used to purchase the refrigerator were raised from our annual \u201cTickle Me Pink\u201d Fete. So that\u2019s all of us helping ourselves when the community supports our fundraisers. On May 8th<\/sup> we\u2019ll be hosting a fundraiser concert on the Freewinds (cruise ship)<\/em>. Music will be provided by The Kutting Edge Band and The Freewinds Band. We\u2019re asking the public to support us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For more information on how you or the organization you represent can support the hospital please call (268) 484-2711 or send an email to:info@msjmc.gov.ag<\/a><\/p>
