They work all year long to make some of the best holiday crafts around, and they are pumped for fall. The St. Rita's Craft Club is located in the basement of one of the hospital's office buildings, and to a crafter, it's heaven. There are hundreds of bottles of paint, thousands of flowers, hot glue, and a handyman. These ladies spend countless hours painting and decorating to raise money for St. Rita's auxiliary. They are currently working on autumn and halloween decorations along with Ohio State items for their fall craft show.

Medical workers were able to play with four-legged friends on Thursday. Mercy Health - St. Rita's Medical Center welcomed the Auglaize County Humane Society as they brought a total of four puppies to help relieve stress. 

Prioritizing safety can be the difference between spending Independence Day with friends and family versus in the emergency room.  Mercy - Health St. Rita's sees a increase in emergency room visits on the 4th of July. 

Employees at Mercy Health - St. Rita’s are spreading some Christmas cheer, by donating to an organization that helps people out during the holidays.

This summer, Mercy Health started "Community Care Fridays", where employees can dress down and are encouraged to make donations to be given out to different local charities.  This time around, they gave $2,000 to the "Delphos Christmas Community Project."  Last year, the charity provided toys, coats, clothes, shoes, and a holiday meal to more than 125 families and the need is expected to be greater this year.
