Lori Grubbs, vice-presidente do conselho de diretores da Volunteers in Medicine dos condados de Dearborn, Ohio e Su\u00ed\u00e7a, diz que a cl\u00ednica gratuita estava em uma encruzilhada quando recebeu uma doa\u00e7\u00e3o de $1.000 da Operation RoundUp do Southeastern Indiana REMC.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\u201cNossa maior despesa s\u00e3o os laborat\u00f3rios \u2013 gastamos $12.000 este ano\u201d, ela diz. \u201cEst\u00e1vamos debatendo se dever\u00edamos come\u00e7ar a cobrar pelos laborat\u00f3rios, e a bolsa foi uma d\u00e1diva. Precis\u00e1vamos de dinheiro naquele momento, e a bolsa manteve nossa miss\u00e3o de fornecer assist\u00eancia m\u00e9dica gratuita progredindo.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ter a capacidade de fazer exames de sangue \u00e9 vital para os servi\u00e7os que a cl\u00ednica fornece. \u201cSe a pessoa n\u00e3o consegue fazer o exame de sangue, como sei se o colesterol dela est\u00e1 alto?\u201d, diz Grubbs. \u201cH\u00e1 pessoas que ignoraram uma condi\u00e7\u00e3o de sa\u00fade de longo prazo e, ent\u00e3o, t\u00eam um evento monumental, como um derrame por causa da hipertens\u00e3o ou porque o colesterol estava alto. Ou ignoraram o estreptococo, que \u00e9 tratado com um antibi\u00f3tico simples, mas agora t\u00eam um problema card\u00edaco devido \u00e0 infec\u00e7\u00e3o.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Grubbs conta sobre um casal que visitou a cl\u00ednica porque estavam preocupados que o marido pudesse ter c\u00e2ncer. Por meio de cuidados atenciosos e perguntas da equipe volunt\u00e1ria, o casal saiu com assist\u00eancia m\u00e9dica, comida, antibi\u00f3ticos para a pneumonia da esposa \u2014 diagnosticada quando ela tossiu e disse que estava doente h\u00e1 um m\u00eas \u2014 medicamentos para o marido e informa\u00e7\u00f5es sobre novas oportunidades de emprego.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cA esposa estava chorando e nos abra\u00e7ando\u201d, diz Grubbs. \u201cQuem imaginaria que um telefonema ajudaria esse casal de tantas maneiras? O impacto simplesmente surge e fica cada vez maior.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
De acordo com Barry Lauber, que administra a Operation RoundUp do SEI, os membros arredondam suas contas mensais de energia el\u00e9trica para o d\u00f3lar inteiro mais pr\u00f3ximo, o que d\u00e1 uma m\u00e9dia de cerca de $6 por ano cada. Desde o primeiro desembolso bienal em janeiro de 2017, a cooperativa doou mais de $370.000 para causas em sua \u00e1rea de servi\u00e7o de sete condados, gra\u00e7as \u00e0 generosidade de seus membros.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cSeis d\u00f3lares por si s\u00f3 n\u00e3o fariam muito impacto, mas quando voc\u00ea soma isso a 20.000 outros membros, o valor aumenta muito r\u00e1pido\u201d, diz Lauber.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cA Operation RoundUp beneficia as comunidades em que nossos consumidores vivem, o que as torna um lugar melhor para viver e melhora a qualidade de vida. N\u00e3o podemos colocar um pre\u00e7o no que nossos membros est\u00e3o fazendo por seus vizinhos e amigos.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Grubbs reitera como apenas alguns d\u00f3lares podem mudar a vida de uma pessoa. Uma jovem visitou a cl\u00ednica por um problema respirat\u00f3rio e acabou recebendo ajuda porque estava pensando em se machucar. \u201cNaquele ponto, $6 era vida ou morte para aquela garota\u201d, diz Grubbs sobre a contribui\u00e7\u00e3o anual dos membros do SEI. \u201cQuantas vezes jogamos $6 fora?\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
O gerente geral Keith Mathews diz que o conselho de concess\u00e3o normalmente tem mais solicita\u00e7\u00f5es do que pode atender, mas ainda concede cerca de 35 a 40. Esse apoio geralmente ajuda departamentos de bombeiros volunt\u00e1rios e servi\u00e7os m\u00e9dicos de emerg\u00eancia, bem como organiza\u00e7\u00f5es juvenis, igrejas e ag\u00eancias focadas em sa\u00fade e seguran\u00e7a.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cN\u00f3s enfatizamos a retribui\u00e7\u00e3o \u00e0 comunidade porque estamos comprometidos em retribuir \u00e0 comunidade \u2013 \u00e9 uma das nossas prioridades\u201d, ele diz. \u201cSem nossos membros e sua disposi\u00e7\u00e3o em doar, nada disso seria poss\u00edvel.\u201d<\/p>\n
