Personal Protective Equipment – Donations

Personal Protective Equipment, PPE, is important for those who are providing direct patient care. Today, Madera Community Hospital has a full supply of surgical masks, N95 masks, face shields, and gowns. However, as you have learned from the national news, all hospitals are having difficulty with securing PPE. In preparation for the predicted patient surge, we appreciate donations of all regular hospital PPE along with disposable and washable painter’s coveralls

According to the Centers for Disease Control, fabric masks are a crisis response option with other supplies have been exhausted. We are extremely grateful for the community’s support and specifically the Madera Medical Mask Brigade. Their advanced mask pattern can be found on

Support our Workforce

Want to help, donate now!

The demand for a professional and committed workforce has never been greater. The current visitation restrictions make it really tough on both families and patients. We can use technology to help bring comfort to both the patient and the family. We also need technology to help patients, in isolation, stay connected to their nurse while limiting the number of times our doctors and nurses enter their room. Please help.
