Thanks to donations, Hywel Dda Health Charities, the official charity of Hywel Dda University Health Board, has been able to purchase six TVs for Preseli Ward at Glangwili Hospital.
Preseli Ward is a 15-bed ward for surgical patients.
Vicky Thomas, Senior Sister, said: “We are very grateful that charitable funds has enabled us to purchase six new TVs for Preseli Ward.
“There are currently no televisions on the ward. Patients can feel very isolated when away from their family and friends for extended periods. The new TVs will help pass the time and distract from issues they may be facing.”
Nicola Llewelyn, Head of Hywel Dda Health Charities, the official charity of Hywel Dda University Health Board, said: “The support of our local communities enables us to provide services over and above what the NHS can provide in the three counties of Hywel Dda and we are extremely grateful for every donation we receive.”
