Testimonials
Hospitals auxiliaries make a huge difference to patients’ experiences, offering directions and other help and comforts in almost every area of the hospital.”
“The family care room furnished and managed by the auxiliary has been so great! It’s used every day, often multiple times a day. We use it for family meetings, but I’ve also started to notice some families going in and using the room just when they need a quiet space. Staff and physicians are very happy to have a space they can direct our families to. It has been amazing having it set up.”
The Women’s Hospital Auxiliary was organized April 28, 1938, at a meeting held in the City Hall Council Chambers by a Private Member’s Bill, passed in the Provincial Legislature. In 1955, the Women’s Hospital Auxiliary was granted representation on the Belleville General Hospital Board of Governors.
