Auxiliary and Volunteer Information

Jones Regional Medical Center Auxiliary

Jones Regional Auxiliary, comprised of more than 250 men and women from all over the county, promotes and advances the welfare of Jones Regional Medical Center. Its members do this through service to the hospital and its patients and through fundraising. The Auxiliary's main fundraisers include:

  • No-Bake Sale
  • Bratwurst Lunch Sale
  • Chicken & Noodle Luncheon
  • Holiday fundraisers

In recent years, the Auxiliary has supported the hospital by providing funds for an optical chair and for the renovation of the specialty clinics. Since its establishment in 1957, the Auxiliary has donated more than $96,000 for hospital needs. In 1994, the Auxiliary began a scholarship program in which it gives scholarships to a student from each of the four high schools in Jones County every year. The students must be planning to study a health care field.

Dues for the Auxiliary are $5 per year or $100 for a lifetime membership.

Billie Werner, president
Lori Shelton, vice president
Anna Adams, treasurer

Emergency Department
"The emergency room team worked together so well. They were prepared to take care of my immediate needs when I arrived. There wasn't a wasted motion in the ER. I was so impressed with the efficiency and the way the ER worked! As an air ambulance pilot, I've seen it all, and for a smaller hospital to have everything lined up and orchestrated so well, it was comforting to me as I was going through this. I was in a lot of pain, but they took care of me. I've always thought they did a great job here in Anamosa, but I really understand the true meaning of 'They saved my life' now."
- Elgin Lester, Anamosa, former heart attack patient at Jones Regional
