►SRMC Auxiliary
Since 1934, the Auxiliary has supported Salem Regional Medical Center through projects and fundraising events that benefit services and programs for our patients and their families.
Auxiliary meetings are held the second Thursday of the month in the hospital's Private Dining Room. The meetings begin at 9:30 a.m., and include a business session and guest speaker. Each year, members also gather to enjoy a Christmas brunch in December and Spring luncheon in May. The general membership adjourns for the Summer (June-August). Annual membership dues are $10.00.

►Mobile Meals of Salem
Mobile Meals of Salem partners with SRMC to provide meals to housebound residents in Salem and Perry Township. Volunteers meet at SRMC to pick up the meals and deliver them to clients, usually working in teams of two. Meals are delivered Monday - Friday from 11 a.m. - 12:30 p.m., and volunteer drivers are typically assigned a schedule of between 2 - 4 days a month.
Mobile Meals volunteers receive a free lunch provided by the hospital after completing their deliveries for the day. For more information on becoming a Mobile Meals volunteer, visit www.salemmobilemeals.com or call the Mobile Meals Coordinator at 330-332-2160.
