Colleton Medical Center brings Christmas cheer to 17 adults and 13 children

Colleton Medical Center (CMC) staff embraces Care Like Family motto to bring Christmas cheer to 17 adults and 13 children between the ages of 80-years-old and 3-months-old.

“Care Like Family” isn’t something we simply say, it’s something we do,” said Jimmy Hiott, Colleton Medical Center CEO. “We understand that the holidays can be a time of stress and loneliness for many in our community and this was our way of helping to ease that burden.”

CMC worked with the Department of Social Services office in Walterboro who identified families and elderly community members in need of a little extra holiday cheer. A simple wish list of items with no identifying information was provided for each individual and Santa’s CMC Elves did the rest.
