CLUB Central Hurstville has donated $57,000 to Nurses On Wheels to help them expand their fleet and replace existing cars.
The money, donated as part of the ClubGRANTS initiative, is the first instalment.
A total of $153,000 will be donated over four years to buy five new cars.
Nurses On Wheels is a non-profit organisation that provides community nursing in St George and Sutherland Shire.
The organisation provides in-home nursing care seven days a week, every day of the year to keep patients in their homes as long as possible and reduce the workload of GPs.
The team of 21 nurses made 29,594 visits to patients in their homes last year to provide much-needed home nursing care.
With five new cars this year plus the additional money over the next four years, the nurses will be able to increase patient visits.
