DON PEASLEY PHOTO Society NEWS Five days a week, a workfor­ ce of volunteers moves daily into McHenry hospital, skill­ fully assisting the staff in the responsibility of caring for patients. These women-all dressed in attractive pink uniforms--come from miles around to donate their time and ability to make the patients' stay more com­ fortable. Through more than a half dozen services these volunteers aid, and now the time has come to recognize the sizable con­ tribution of these Pink Ladies, reports Mrs. Everett Hansen, director of volunteer services. Mrs. Hansen, one of the vol­ unteers who spends almost full time at her organizational and administative responsibil­ ities, says a luncheon will be held W ednesday, Oct. 15, at the Crystal Lake Country club to salute the seventy-five volun­ teer Pink Ladies. Service awards will be giv­ en at what essentially will be a "fun" party, a program to honor those whose dedication to persons that need help is ex­ pressed in personal form. The women volunteers under­ go a training program before assuming their duties in the hospital. Their effort is coor­ dinated through the Woman's auxiliary and with the hospital administrator, Anthony Cor­ coran. New services provided by the volunteers include an es­ cort service, emergency room assistance and a recreational therapy program. The escort service involves transporting patients to and from x-ray, laboratory and physical ther­ apy. In the emergency room, the volunteers assist the reg­ istered nurse in charge. Those in recreational therapy visit patients, show movies, take things to patients and transport patients to events and help with various types of handi­ craft.
