AUXILIARY

The Cherokee Regional Medical Center Auxiliary is a concerned group of volunteers who enjoy contributing many extras to make the local hospital special.

They have a long time tradition of providing heart-warming gifts for patient services. Each newborn baby is presented with a hand-made cap before leaving the hospital. Other special projects include providing cable T.V. in each of the patient rooms and a comprehensive newborn care book for all new mothers delivering at CRMC.
Currently, the CRMC Auxiliary conducts various fundraising events including- the May Coffee & Bake Sale, the Iowa/ ISU Cookie Challenge, and the December Sweet Affair.

The famous CRMC Quilters meet in room 233 at the hospital every Tuesday and Thursday morning from 9:00 to 11:00. This team of quilters provides hand-quilting services to the public. Over the past several years, the Quilters have donated money towards new equipment including a recumbent bike for the Physical Medicine department. Area quilters are always welcome and can contact Lee Gary at 225-5320 for additional information.

Auxiliary memberships can be purchased for by contacting Marilyn Brown, 5313 O Avenue, Cherokee, Iowa 51012 or by calling 225-4785.
