Golden Valley Memorial Hospital received the 2007 Outstanding Hospital award from Community Blood Center at the annual Celebration of Giving banquet on Thursday, March 13, 2008.  The hospital collected 127 units of blood this past year.  This was a 115% increase over the 2006 donations. GVMH Blood drives have increased from two blood drives per year to five blood drives per year.   GVMH employees should be very proud of the support they have shown not only for Community Blood Center, but also for the people of Clinton and the surrounding areas!
