Nurses Helping Nurses

UAB SNA is sponsoring a program to send needed items to nurses currently serving in Iraq. One of the nurses is a UAB SON graduate and she sent us a wish list of items needed for the hospital, patients and the nurses in her unit. We will be collecting items and sending them overseas throughout the summer.

For Patients
For the Nurses
Flip Flops (All sizes)  Shampoo and Conditioner 
Liquid Soap (Old Spice, Irish Spring)  Shower Gels 
Deodorant  Febreeze Fabric Dryer Sheets 
Shaving Cream  Good Coffee 
Gold Bond Powder  Chocolate 
Patient Gowns  Microwave Popcorn 
AAA Batteries  Baby Wipes 
Infant hats, clothes, socks, blankets   Disposable Razors 
Twin-sized Flat Sheets  Toothbrush Kits 

In addition to donated items, we would like to ask you for any letters or cards you might want to pass on to the nurses in Iraq. Everyone needs words of encouragement… Especially if you are thousands of miles from home in a foreign country serving in our military!

Collection boxes are located in the Nursing Building on the 1st floor in front of the elevators and on the ground floor in front of the student lounge to the right of the elevators. If you would like to make a monetary donation for these items and/or shipping, please make checks payable to UAB SNA and print Nurses Helping Nurses on the memo line. Thank you for your help with this project. Let’s show these nurses in Iraq how much we appreciate their service!
