History Of Carleton Place & District Memorial Hospital
The Carleton Place District Memorial Hospital Auxiliary was formed on May 22, 1953, two years before the hospital was opened. Ninety ladies attended the 1st meeting and elected Mrs. Annie Johnston as their first president.
Over the years, volunteers have given of their time to the Physiotherapy, medical records and the Laboratory Department as well as the Information Desk, Gift Shop, HELPP Lottery and Patient Registration. Along with these duties as well as their many fundraisers - Roast Beef lunch, Tortieres and Ride of Splendor, to name a few - the volunteers donate an estimated 20,000 hours to the Hospital.
The role of the Carleton Place District Memorial Hospital Auxiliary is always shifting to accomodate the community's need for a more outpatient facilities, and the Auxiliary is pleased to be still active in providing volunteers and equipment to help achieve this goal.
