PATIENT PERCY CROSTHWAITE rests on a comfortable new bed

St. Joseph's General Hospital patient Percy Crosthwaite rested comfortably Wednesday in one of six new beds purchased by the RBC Foundation.

The organization donated $20,000 to support a program to phase in new beds at the hospital, which provide more comfort, are adjustable and are easier for patient transport.

More than half of the 234 beds at the hospital are 12 years or older.
