Central Piedmont Health Professions and Human Services, donated more than 30,000 pairs of gloves, 670 N95 masks, 350 isolation gowns, 250 level 3 masks and 400 bouffant caps to Atrium Health and Novant Health.

All of the college’s health programs and Environmental Health and Safety department offered their supplies to meet the community needs. Although faculty from all areas were willing to come in and help pack, we limited the faculty involved for safety reasons. Here are a few of our Central Piedmont heroes:

• Karen Summers, Interim Dean Health Professions and Human Services
• Eileen Clark, Dental Hygiene
• Cathy Flores, Medical Assisting
• Mel Angelisanti, Surgical Technology

Thank you to all of the staff involved for supporting the community during such challenging times.
