Cheque presentation to Intensive Care Comfort Fund, University Hospital Galway

The family of the late Mary McGuckin, Shantalla have generously donated €1,120 to the Intensive Care Comfort Fund, University Hospital Galway. Mary who was a patient of the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), UHG, sadly passed away last July and in recognition of the excellent support and care Mary received during her time in ICU, Mary’s family and friends organised the first annual Mary McGuckin Memorial Swim which took place on 01 January. The funds raised will go towards purchasing furniture for the Intensive Care Unit.     
 
The Intensive Care Unit at University Hospital Galway would like to thank the family and friends of the late Mary McGuckin and all the people who donated to the Mary McGuckin Memorial Swim for their generosity.
