Father-and-son periodontists Mark and Tom McCawley are doing their part in the South Florida community as they joined those helping the healthcare workers on the front lines battling the coronavirus pandemic.
The Fort Lauderdale dentists donated their surplus of medical supplies by distributing 530 N95 masks, 1,800 gloves and 100 surgical gowns to the Broward Health Foundation.
“We just see what all you guys do in the community to keep us safe, to keep us healthy,” Mark McCawley said in an interview, referring to healthcare workers. “We just felt like we needed to do something to keep you guys as healthy as possible.”
The foundation is continuing to collect monetary and in-kind donations for the well-being of the Broward Health caregivers and their patients.
“Every person can help us to make sure that our front line medical staff stays safe so that they can take care of you,” Broward Health Foundation President Bill Diggs said in a statement. “Having individuals embrace what we do means everything.”
