BHB thanks The Hospitals Auxiliary of Bermuda for donation benefiting long-term care residents

Tuesday 20 January 2026: The Bermuda Hospitals Board (BHB) extends its sincere appreciation to The Hospitals Auxiliary of Bermuda (HAB) for its generous donation of two 48-inch televisions and accompanying stands to the Perry and Cooper Long Term Care (LTC) units of King Edward VII Memorial Hospital.

The donation, presented on Friday 2 January, is already enhancing the daily experience of LTC residents, providing them with access to television programming and movies that support recreational engagement and social connection.

Clinical manager Curtis Long Term Care Unit, Christine Bogle-Mienzer, welcomed the donation.

“On behalf of the residents and staff of the LTC Perry and Cooper units, please accept our sincere thanks for the generous gift of a TV with a stand. This donation will make a meaningful difference in the daily lives of our residents,” she said.

She added that the gift to both the Perry and Cooper units reflects the HAB’s longstanding and valued commitment to Bermuda’s hospital community.

“Your continued support demonstrates a genuine understanding of the needs of long-term care residents and a strong dedication to enhancing their care environment.

“The Hospitals Auxiliary of Bermuda has a long-standing legacy of service, generosity, and partnership with our clinical teams. We value this relationship and look forward to continuing to work together in support of our patients and residents,” she added.

BHB CEO & President Scott Pearman commented: “On behalf of the management and staff of BHB I thank you for this gift to our LTC units and also acknowledge how grateful we are for your ongoing support. Year after year you continue to enrich our hospital environment through meaningful contributions that directly improve the well-being of our patients and residents.

“At Christmas you provided a gift to each of our long-term care residents and now, at the start of the year, you continue your generosity.

“We offer our warmest wishes to your HAB leadership and members for a healthy, happy and successful 2026.”
