The FHN Gala is held each November to raise funds to assist with one larger project at the hostpital each year.  Last year, funds were raised to improve the inpatient experience by purchasing new beds and mattresses for the hospital rooms.  This year, we are continuing to focus on improving the patient experience.  To do this, we would like to replace the over bed and bedside tables, as well as the wall saver recliners in each patient room. Last year's theme was Casino Vino (as can be seen in the event website listed below). This year it is the HA HA Holiday Gala as we are featuring a comedian/magician for entertainment.  The website for this year is not yet up.

 ·         The over bed tables will provide not only a place for the patients to comfortably and conveniently be provided with meals but also doubles as additional storage and security for belongings such as phones, glasses, and hygiene products.

 ·         The bedside table/dresser combination provides additional space for personal items such as clothing, personal care items, and supplies.

 ·         Wall saver recliners ensure the ultimate in comfort for patients and safe alternative to lying in bed for meals and relaxation.
