Memorial Hermann Northeast donates hospital beds to Medical Bridges

Memorial Hermann Northeast Hospital recently donated nearly 100 hospital beds to Medical Bridges, a not-for-profit organization in Houston that recovers medical surplus that would otherwise be discarded and redistributes it to hospitals, clinics and healthcare providers in less fortunate countries. Pictured from left to right are Brythin Bernstine of Medical Bridges, Carolyn Denman, chair of the Medical Bridges Committee for Memorial Hermann Northeast Hospital Volunteers, Anderson Wright, also of Medical Bridges, and David Cervantes of Memorial Hermann Northeast Hospital.  (Jun 22, 2009 | post #1)
