Starting with a handful of volunteers in 1982, the award-winning Citizens Memorial Hospital auxiliary program has grown to more than 350 auxiliary members who actively volunteer at all CMH locations. Since that time, more than 1,500 auxiliary members have served CMH for a total of 36,000 hours a year. In recognition for their exceptional spirit and hard work, the CMH Auxiliary was selected three times as Auxiliary of the Year in Missouri, and recently received the 2014 Award for Excellence from the Midwest Association for Healthcare Volunteer Resource Professionals. The founder of the CMH Auxiliary, Lillian Hutcheson, led the auxiliary program even before CMH opened in 1982 until her retirement in 2001. In honor of her leadership and dedication, CMH annually presents an award in her name to an outstanding volunteer. The auxiliary has members that serve in many capacities - the hospital's information desk, gift shop, physical therapy department, outpatient clinics, administration, medical records, laboratory, pharmacy, medical-surgical unit, Hospitality House, and long-term and residential care facilities. In addition to volunteering, the auxiliary raises money through different fundraisers and donates that money to CMH to purchase items such as new hospital beds, a new bus for the CMH transportation system, electric doors for the hospital, blanket warmers, granite park benches, speaker systems and many other needed items.
