With the growing concerns about COVID-19 entering our region, Grant Regional would like to take a proactive approach and avoid a potential shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE).

Face shields

Digital thermometers

Eye protection such as safety glasses and goggles

Hand sanitizer that is at least 60 percent alcohol

Sanitizing wipes

Masks including both N95 and surgical masks (any level)

Gloves

Gowns

Handmade cloth masks
Our amazing communities have reached out to see how they can help us. Many talented individuals have started making and dropping off handmade cloth masks. For a pattern that we suggest, click on link here https://bit.ly/3dwDgmd.

We will be accepting donations Monday – Friday from 10 – 11 AM at our Rehab entrance at the South side of our hospital. If you cannot drop off donations at this time, we can arrange for you to drop items when someone can meet you at a designated entrance to accept the donation. If you have questions, you can call Brandi Riechers at (608) 723-3358 or email her at foundation@grantregional.com.
