Delco Council approves purchase of new voting system
Surgical Technology students at Delaware County Community College are once again joining the Association of Surgical Technologists across the nation in an effort to “gLOVE” the world one person at a time.
Surgical technologists, generally found in operating rooms helping surgeons into sterile gloves, want to extend their caring hands to help warm residents in need. Students are collecting gloves, hats, scarves and outerwear for local shelter residents. Collection boxes are being distributed throughout the College’s Marple Campus , 999 S. Media Line Road, Marple Township, as well as at clinical sites throughout Delaware, Chester and Philadelphia Counties. The campaign runs through Dec. 9.
For more information on the “gLOVE” campaign, call Anne Marie O’Shea, instructor of Allied Health, Emergency Services and Nursing, at 999-599-9999.
