Hospital to get new over-bed tables

RUBIS has made a donation to the country’s main hospital that will see an improvement in how food and medicines are served

RUBIS donated new over-bed tables to the hospital through the Friends of Mount St John MSJMC.

Country Representative for RUBIS Antigua Raphaelene Jackson, said the “Company’s donation of EC$6,792 to the Friends of Mount St John MSJMC contributed significantly towards enabling a total order of 65 tables for the local hospital, which was formerly known as the Mount St John Medical Center”

“This support benefits the people of Antigua and Barbuda in their most difficult times and we are pleased to play a part in that,” she stated.

Meanwhile, Treasurer of the Friends of MSJMC Lawrence Blackman, said the important work of supporting SLBMC would not be possible without community partners like RUBIS. 

“We are delighted to partner with RUBIS once again in the service of our local hospital, the Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre. With their assistance, we have been able to order sixty-five over-bed tables, which will go a long way in facilitating the proper dispensation of food and medicines to patients at the Institution. It is partners such as RUBIS, with their strong community outreach, who allow us to further our mission of providing tangible support and equipment to our local hospital,” Blackman added.
