LINDEN Fund USA has donated a new electrocardiogram (ECG) machine to Linden Hospital Complex.
It was handed over, last Friday, by Dr. Kelly Thomas and other representatives of the donor to Mr. Brian Claxton, in the presence of other staff at Mackenzie Hospital.

Chief Executive Officer of Linden Hospital Complex, Mr. Gordon Gumbs, was also present.

Thomas told the gathering the donation was facilitated through the efforts of Dr. Madan Rambarran of the Health Ministry, who was in contact with the Honourary Consul General for Guyana in Canada, Mr. Danny Doobay.

Thomas said he hopes maximum use would be made of the gift to enhance patient care.

Secretary of Linden Fund USA, Ms. Linda Felix, disclosed that the need was made known to Ms. Shanie Persaud, niece of Guyana’s Ambassador in Washington, Mr. Bayney Karran, who met and spoke with Linden Fund Chairman, Dr. Vincent Adams at a function.

Claxton expressed thanks on behalf of the Linden Hospital Complex and noted that the equipment would better serve patients.

Other Linden Fund members witnessing the presentation were Ms. Donna McAllister-Jones, Mr. Gilbert Joseph and Mr. Sammy David.
