“All
our rooms are full!” Raymond Hino, Chief Executive Officer of the Bear Valley’s hospital,
explained to representatives of the Big Bear Lake Rotary Club Foundation and
the Bear Valley Community Healthcare District Foundation, Tuesday morning,
October 7th. The hospital rooms, Hino was referring to were the
three newly remodeled rooms funded by both foundations.
The rooms got more
than a facelift, recently. Had the group had a chance to view them they would
have seen: Totally all new bathrooms fixtures, Flooring replaced in bedrooms
and bathrooms, Curtains and window treatment, Drywalls with head-wall units, New
bedside tables, New cabinetry with closets, Re-skinned doors, and Flat-screen
televisions.
To commemorate the three remodeled
rooms, Pam Scannell, Big Bear Valley Chamber of Commerce
Executive Director, conducted a ribbon-cutting. A special
presentation of $30,000 check was handed to the Hospital CEO, the funds of
which were raised at the first annual Rotary Valentine's Sweetheart Ball, that
was held on February 14, 2014. Patients and the hospital staff of the Bear
Valley Community Healthcare District are grateful for the renovation and the
financial assistance that made the project successful.
