The Waupun service club of The Lions Club International recently donated funds to help support the purchase of music CDs for the Comfort Carts at Waupun Memorial Hospital. John Bett, with the Waupun Lions Club, gave the donation to Karen Gross, Waupun Memorial Hospital volunteer coordinator. The Comfort Cart is intended to give patients and visitors the tools they need to reduce anxiety and provide relaxation. The cart features the following items: crossword puzzles, playing cards, sleep kits with lavender spray and eye mask, shawls, rosaries, magazines, notebooks, neck pillows, stress balls, manicure sets, and now music CDs along with other miscellaneous items. Patients are reporting that they enjoy having a visit from the volunteer who brings the cart, and it has helped them feel more relaxed and in better spirits.
