Church of Our Savior Supports Baptist Health COVID-19 Emergency Fund

Posted

The Church of Our Savior in Jacksonville Beach raised $650 to donate to Baptist Medical Center Beaches’ COVID-19 Emergency Fund to help with the creation of recharge-and-refresh rooms for hospital team members.

“The contribution assists in the ongoing wellness and resiliency of team members who all are grateful for such generous community support,” said David Morrell, a chaplain for Baptist Beaches.

Morrell and his pastoral care team are responsible for bringing the recharge-and-refresh rooms to the hospital campus. These rooms include relaxing music, massage chairs and snacks for team members.

The COVID-19 Emergency Fund provides assistance to both Baptist Health team members and patients. Donations are used to help purchase iPads and other entertainment materials to keep patients comfortable and occupied, assist Baptist team members facing unexpected financial distress and prepare hospital campuses as needed to care for the surge of patients throughout the pandemic.
