November 4, 2024<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Kingaroy Hospital Auxiliary has donated two Airvos 3 oxygen machines – worth a total of $15,000 – to Kingaroy Hospital to help adult patients with breathing difficulties.<\/p>\n

\u201cEe purchased the machines following a generous donation of $1000 from the QCWA Kingaroy Branch, and through funds raised by our vending machine which was on site during construction of the new Kingaroy Hospital,\u201d auxiliary treasurer David Morton said.<\/p>\n

The auxiliary donated the machines after learning that new and more effective oxygen machines were now available for patients which would greatly benefit the local community.<\/p>\n

One of the hospital\u2019s registered nurses, Mandy, thanked the auxiliary for the oxygen machines.<\/p>\n

“The new machines are easy to operate and will provide faster relief to patients requiring oxygen,\u201d she said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The auxiliary is currently fundraising for further medical equipment and would greatly appreciate donations to its Cash for Containers account (member number C11439263).<\/p>\n

The local community can also help by buying a ticket at South Burnett markets in the auxiliary\u2019s Christmas raffle.<\/p>\n

The major prize is a 40 inch TV from sponsor Kingaroy Betta.<\/p>\n
