Santa’s Helpers!

(Honesdale, December 15, 2023)…It’s an annual tradition at Wayne Memorial Hospital (WMH), providing holiday gifts to senior citizens in need. Every year the call comes in from the Wayne County Area Agency on Aging and employees at Wayne Memorial go shopping! Many homebound seniors ask for necessities like toiletries and cleaning products. While those needs are met, the generosity of WMH employees always exceeds that to make it a merrier Christmas for all. As in years past, this year’s gifts filled up an entire van. It’s “overwhelming,” according to WMH Social Work Manager Mary Burgio-Terpak, LCS, “You all have big hearts and care about the community,” Thank you to everyone for always coming through.
