A Decade of Warmth: Annual Blanket Drive Returns! โœจ

We want to collaborate with you to wrap patients and families in warmth this winter. From November 3rd through December 10th, we are accepting donations of new blankets in the spirit of the season.

For the past 10 years, UAMS Auxiliary has shared your gifts to create comfort, hope, and healing for patients and families with UAMS Medical Center over the holidays.

Thanks to the generosity of our community partners, our organization has been able to gift brand-new blankets to patients in our hospital units, hand-delivered by Santa Claus and his troupe of Auxiliary elves.

Come by with your donation now through Dec. 10th. We are located at the Office of Volunteer Engagement, UAMS Medical Center Suite 1E50, across from the Gift Shop. You can also contact Jaimel Jointer (jjointer@uams.edu) to arrange pickup.

Donate as many blankets as you likeโ€”we accept small or bulk donations.
Ready to make a difference? Your donation earns a spot on Santa's "Nice" List. Help us wrap our community in love this holiday season. ๐ŸŽ

๐Ÿฉบโœจ HEALERS Program 2025: Future Healthcare Heroes in Action! โœจ๐Ÿฉบ

UAMS Health welcomed 12 talented rising high school juniors and seniors to our Healthcare Education Active Learning Experience for Regional Scholars (HEALERS) Program!

These brilliant students scrubbed up to explore healthcare careers earlier this summer, laying crucial groundwork for futures in the medical workforce.

๐Ÿฉบ๐Ÿ”ฌ Program highlights:

โœ… Joined lectures, workshops, and demos with clinical and non-clinical experts at UAMS Health
โœ… Conducted experiments in hands-on labs/practical tasks with UAMS faculty and staff
โœ… Gained real-world experience through volunteer work in our hospital units and in patient experience contexts

The curiosity, teamwork, and dedication these students showed was absolutely inspiring! UAMS Office of Volunteer Engagement/UAMS Auxiliary was honored to host these future healthcare professionals and help students take a big step toward careers in health sciences.

Huge thanks to our UAMS HEALERS Intern Parker Byrd for planning and facilitating, and to all UAMS faculty and staff who contributed time, developed thoughtful demos and lectures, and made this summer program incredible!
