Hospital Auxiliary

The Seneca Hospital Auxiliary is a community organization that supports the hospital in all avenues. The Auxiliary also makes generous contributions to the hospital for the purchase of newer equipment. The Seneca Hospital Auxiliary provides care and comfort to patients and assists Seneca Healthcare District in promoting the health and welfare of the community. The Auxiliary also provides educational scholarships to those entering the healthcare field and those in the field continuing their education.

Donation Drive

Each year the Auxiliary conducts a donation drive to community members asking for donations to support Seneca Healthcare District with needed equipment. There has always been an amazing and generous community response to our hospital’s needs.
