Co. we Baptists. contribute funds to heip Support the care of the needy sick af our Hospital in Winston-Salem. This is natural thing for us ‘to°do. for Baptists could never pass by on the other side when a neighbor calls for help. . But how many of us ever Stopped to think what the Hospital means 'to us and our loved ones? Here are some ways it helps: all of us: 1. When we need ment or hospital care of a specialized nature that is not available ities, Baptist Hospital stands by,. ready to Serve: It has doctors representing every medical specialty. They “have thé latest equipment, devised by medical science to aid them in their healing ministry. They work closely with your personal physician and he refers you to the Hospital: Ninety per. cent of its patients come through. Teferrals. ° bs Eis 2. The Hospital and the Bowman Gray School of Medicine combine Ya form our own North Carolina Baptist Medical Center, The Hospital is the teaching hospital for) the medical schoo! and members of the school’s facult ryala nter, advantages which only such an institution can providi i Staff are conducting vital research into the causes and cures of illnesses. We have the benefit of the knowledge. they gain and of their constant alertness for knowledge which ig brought to light in other research centers of the world 3. In our home Communities, we have doctors; nurses, and technicians. who were trained - ___at.the Hospitat and are. practicing their professions with the-high degree of skill they developed ave less of a Shortage of these well trained persons because of our Hospital's educational program.
