PADUCAH, Ky. (WSIL) -- Paducah's Mercy Health - Lourdes Hospital has announced its partnership with St. Mary School.

The hospital donated $10,650 to support a new school nurse.

The school selected Belinda Weitlauf, who has served as a school nurse with the Mayfield City School District and Paducah Public Schools for 18 years.

Hospital president Mike Yungmann says this partnership has been a great opportunity to provide health services during the pandemic.

"There are a lot of people concerned about the return of kids to school and so it was important for us to be able to contribute to that happen safely. Not protecting just our kids, but also our educators," he said.

Yungmann says he's looking forward to providing any future needs for the school.
