Last Saturday Mendocino Coast District Hospital hosted the Fifth Annual Mendocino Coast Hospital Health and Wellness Festival.  And according the virtually eveyone involved, this one was the best one yet!  The Festival Organizing Committee has been Chaired every year by Chief Clinical Officer, Roni McDermott.  This is what Roni had to say afterward.  “This year we provided over 730 screening exams for blood pressure, oxygen saturation, blood glucose, hearing, lipid panel, balance, bone density and % body fat composition.  This is a big increase over previous years.  In 2009 we did 206 tests and in 2010 we did approximately 600.  We also had over 35 exhibitors, making this the largest festival in 5 years!”  Roni added “We could not have put on such a great show without our volunteers that made it all possible.  Every one of our volunteers showed up ready to work and to do whatever it was going to take for a successful event.”

MCDH’s Sweethearts – Our Volunteers
—Posted Tuesday, February 15th, 2011 at 4:58 pm—

Valentines DayWe are blessed at Mendocino Coast District Hospital to have the most wonderful group of volunteers in the World!  There are SO many things that they do for us everyday including greeting our patients and our visitors, running our gift shop, taking magazines to our patients, ministering to our patients as Chaplains, going into homes as Hospice volunteers and MUCH, MUCH more.  However, on Valentine’s Day each year they turn the tables on us and they show our staff how much they appreciate us!  They make homemade snacks and deserts and decorate our Dining Room in a Valentine’s Day theme.  On behalf of our entire staff, thank you again to our volunteers!  You are the best.  And, of course, Happy Valentine’s Day to all members of our MCDH family.
