Treyger, Consolo and NY Building Congress get cell phone chargers for COVID-19 patients at NYC Health + Hospitals/Coney Island
Councilmember Mark Treyger, community leader Priscilla Consolo and the New York Building Congress collaborated to donate more than 150 cell phone chargers from AT&T to NYC Health + Hospitals/Coney Island.
According to Consolo, she learned of the overlooked problem of a lack of cell phone chargers in the hospital.
With hospitals’ need for personal protective equipment (PPE), ventilators, and meals to be delivered to frontline workers, Consolo noticed the challenge facing the hospital’s medical staff was the demand for cell phone chargers for patients being treated for COVID-19.
