We don't even use our TTY anymore. In fact, it's just sitting on the shelf collecting dust. We don't want to throw it away, but we don't use it."
If this is true and you are not using your TTY, please consider donating it to your local hospital network.
At St. Luke's Hospital, we are looking to increase the number of TTYs for use in patient rooms at 6 different hospital locations within southeastern Wisconsin. That's a lot of patient rooms!
We would appreciate gently used TTYs that are in working condition.To find out more about donating your TTY, please email Lori Duvernell at lori.duvernell@xxxxxxxxxx
