Spring means Gardening!

Now that spring is finally arriving, the hard working volunteers with the KL Hospital Auxiliary in Nelson will be spending time at the hospital getting the gardens ready for summer.  Many volunteer hours are spent every year on these gardens and flower boxes.  The Auxiliary believes beautifying the exterior of the hospital makes it a better place for both patients and visitors.

As one patient said who was spending his 43rd day in the hospital, “sitting outside among the flowers is a real blessing and has helped lift my spirits”

KL Hospital Volunteers – TV for Patients Program

The hard working volunteers of the Kootenay Lake Hospital Auxiliary (Nelson) organize and distribute TVs to patients who order them. If you are hospitalized at KLH, ask the nurse on your ward to contact “the TV lady” and she will come by and set you up with a TV at your bedside.

All proceeds go back to making KLH a better place for patients and visitors.
