Nebrasks CMSA collected free will donations to go toward the purchase of Christmas gifts for those teens in the Youth Inpatient Psychiatric Department at BryanLGH West in Lincoln, NE.
FROM THE PRESIDENT OF NEBRASKA CMSA...Lisa Cantrell
I would like to take this opportunity to extend a very heartful Thank You to those of you that contributed to our Christmas donation. I wanted to pass along some feed back and a great big thank you from the Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Units at BryanLGH Medical Center.
"Thanks to the donations of the NE CMSA members and Corporate Sponsors.
The patients received a wonderful Christmas. The manager was not only able to purchase gifts specific to the patient requests but she was also able to have stockings filled with more treats and essentials and also purchased some items for the patient
unit (games, DVD's etc). Additionally there were cookies baked and it was
overall happy time for the patients and staff.
There were a number of patients on both units who had no visitors so this
was especially meaningful to have Christmas for these kids. Can you imagine
a child not even getting a hug from a parent or family member on
Christmas. I can't . None of this would have been possible without
this contribution.
Best Wishes to you all for a Happy New Year!"
Thank you again for your kindness and your donations. It is a privelege to be associated with such a fine group of professionals! Thank you again and Happy New Year!
