St. E’s Trauma Services donates diapers to needy

YOUNGSTOWN — The children of Beatitude House received a special delivery recently — diapers. Twenty boxes, or a total 2,240 diapers, were delivered by the Trauma Services Department at St. Elizabeth Health Center.

M. Ben Melnykovich, RN, was a weekly guest speaker at Beatitude House earlier this year. He learned of the need for diapers and suggested the group from St. Elizabeth’s use funds from its annual golf outing to buy items needed for the women and children living at Beatitude House.

Trauma Services also bought several boxes of baby wipes, several bike helmets, laundry detergent and over-the-counter medicine.
