Weems Memorial Foundation presents check for 18K to purchase hospital equipment

The Weems Memorial Healthcare Foundation this week presented a check for 18 thousand dollars to Weems Memorial Hospital to purchase some necessary equipment for the hospital.

The money will purchase an ACL Elite, which is a coagulation analyzer system.

It will help patients who are on blood thinners and make sure they don’t have to leave the hospital for blood tests.

The second piece of equipment is a I Stat point of care which is a hand-held system to do blood chemistry in the patients rooms they don’t have to be taken out of their rooms for blood work.

The hospital said both pieces of equipment were sorely needed.


The county commission and the hospital said the Healthcare foundation worked their tails off to raise the money and said they couldn’t ask for a better group of people helping the hospital.
