ORMOND BEACH, Fla., October 25, 2017 On Oct. 22, Florida Hospital Memorial Medical Center employees met at the Andy Romano Beachfront Park in Ormond Beach to remove trash from the park grounds and along the beach. Hospital staff were joined by local Cub Scouts Pack 490.
Over a span of two hours, the hospital employees cleaned a two-mile section of the beach that was littered with debris from Hurricane Irma. They collected 315 pounds of garbage, including a cars bumper, a chair, planks of wood, and even a bed!
Though a beach clean-up may not be considered a traditional role of hospital staff, cleaning up and supporting the community is another way that Florida Hospital employees are able to extend the hospitals healing ministry of Christ beyond the facility's walls.
