April is National Volunteer Month and Greene County Medical Center Auxiliary members were recently recognized for their commitment to local care.  

Since being founded 64 years ago, the Auxiliary has raised over $600,000 for the medical center to be used in support of equipment purchases, programs, scholarships and for the benefit of patients, community members and staff alike.

The mix of active and lifetime members donate hours of their time to operating the Gift Garden in the main lobby of the medical center, hosting fundraisers and providing general support as needed. 

SHIIP (Senior Health Insurance Information Program) volunteers at Greene County Medical Center play a crucial role in assisting county residents with Medicare planning. They provide unbiased support for those working to navigate the complexities of the Medicare system and in selecting plans that meet their individual needs. Not only do they assist during the open enrollment period each year, they host educational seminars for those who will be applying for Medicare in the coming months. 

Please take a minute to thank these hard-working and selfless individuals who are dedicated to the healthcare systems in our communities and all of the people served.
