Sturdy Memorial Hospital is once again participating in Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) Project Red Ribbon, a national campaign designed to promote safe and sober driving during the holiday season, by making red ribbons available to members of the public.
Drivers across the country are being asked to tie a red ribbon on their car door handle, antenna or door mirror as a signal that they are committed to driving responsibly during the holiday season.
According to Brian Patel, M.D., Chief of Emergency Services at Sturdy Memorial, the Hospital’s participation in this project “is an important part of our overall goal to reduce the incidence of motor vehicle accidents and deaths which unfortunately rise during the holiday season. We hope that members of our community will join us in recognizing this worthwhile program by tying a red ribbon on their vehicle, and even more importantly, avoiding accidents by following the rule - Don’t Drink and Drive.”
