I work in  a rehabilitation hospital- When provided with a donation of any value we write a thank you letter ( on hospital letter head) acknowledging the donation.  We do not put any value on the donated items.

Subject: Donating equipment

Hi everyone,

 

I know this is a question we have probably discussed in the past but I need a refresher and am hoping someone might have a sheet they can send me!

 

Do you provide anything to the patient’s family when they wish to donate their loved ones old equipment?  Anything showing their donation and the value maybe? If so where do you determine the value? Do you call the manufacturer? I have a patient who may donate her mother’s EyeMax but prior to calling her I’d like to know if there is something I should provide. Amy it seems like you posted something once???

 

Any help is appreciated thanks!
