Keep the masks coming!

We are so grateful for the donations of homemade masks to be used by employees that do not have direct contact with patients and our hospital and site visitors. If you cannot make masks but happen to have craft material on hand to donate, we have folks available to sew.

Supply needs for us at this time include: water-resistant fabric to make reusable isolation gowns, breathable fabric for masks, thread and elastic.

Here’s a helpful video for how to make masks.
