The Auxiliary of Indiana Regional Medical Center—supporting the hospital since 1915

On January 16, 1915 - Miss McKnight presented to the Executive Committee her views on the formation of an auxiliary board for the purpose of assisting in the care and management of the hospital. After some discussion, Mr. Scott made a motion that a Hospital Auxiliary Board be established and organized. One woman from each of several churches was chosen to represent their church, and thus the hospital auxiliary was formed. Mrs. D.B. Taylor was the first president and there were initially 12 members.

Today, the Auxiliary of Indiana Regional Medical Center (IRMC) has grown to 160 members who have given thousands of hours helping IRMC meet the medical needs of our community.

The Auxiliary always welcomes new members who may participate on special fundraising events or simply support activities through annual membership dues. The success of the Auxiliary's projects is directly attributed to the hard work and dedication of its committee members. Auxiliary funding has supported countless programs at the hospital over the years, and the group has also been a morale booster, with a powerful sense of purpose and camaraderie carried through the decades.
