The Resident is helping out!

The cast of the Fox medical drama is donating medical supplies from the show to Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia amid the coronavirus outbreak.

The series has since postponed filming their third season due to the coronavirus.

“‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’ To the entire team @theresidentonfox, thank you for this incredibly generous donation of #PPE from your set, including gowns, masks, gloves, and all the things our healthcare workers need to provide safe care for our community during #COVID19,” Dr. Karen Law, a rheumatologist at Grady Hospital, wrote on Instagram.

“Yesterday, I had a serious discussion with the residents about how, though supplies are low, a magical shipment of masks is unlikely to arrive. And yet, a magical shipment of masks DID arrive, in the form of this very generous gesture. This kind of community support means so much to our #frontlineproviders who are making many sacrifices to staff our hospitals and care for our community. Thank you, @theresidentonfox and @foxtv for being helpers. We needed this kind of good news today.”

Hospitals have been running low on supplies since the coronavirus hit and Fox’s The Resident made a huge donation to one local hospital to help them out.

While the show didn’t hand over money to the medical professionals at Grady Memorial Hospital, which is located in Atlanta, they did give the facility boxes of their supplies that they used for the medical series.

“To the entire team @theresidentonfox, thank you for this incredibly generous donation of #PPE from your set, including gowns, masks, gloves, and all the things our healthcare workers need to provide safe care for our community during #COVID19,” rheumatologist
Karen Law shared on Instagram of the donation.

She added, “Yesterday, I had a serious discussion with the residents about how, though supplies are low, a magical shipment of masks is unlikely to arrive.

This kind of community support means so much to our #frontlineproviders who are making many sacrifices to staff our hospitals and care for our community.”

“The team @theresidentonfox are good citizens doing good deeds and not looking for a shout out. Though I encourage all to support The Resident and the great team behind the show and to pay their good deed forward any way you can, Karen concluded.

The Resident, which paused production for the time being, airs Tuesdays on Fox.

Exciting news for fans of the hit Fox shows 9-1-1 and The Resident… both shows are getting third seasons!

The two shows air back-to-back on Monday nights and their success has boosted ratings 24 percent over the comparable period from last season, according to THR.

“911 redefined what a procedural series can be, consistently delivering edge-of-your-seat emergencies, mixed with emotional story arcs and incredible performances from one of the most powerful teams of actors on television,” said Fox Entertainment president Michael Thorn.

He added, “The team behind The Resident continue to showcase their brilliant storytelling, revealing both the triumphs and tragedy within the medical world… We want to thank our producing partners, 20th Century Fox Television, who have steered these two extraordinary series. Both 911 and The Resident have many, many more stories to tell and we can’t wait to deliver them to fans next season.”

Fox says that 9-1-1‘s audience across all platforms is 15.4 million people while The Resident is seen by 11 million.

Emily VanCamp opens up about her new medical drama The Resident during the Fox panel at the 2018 Winter TCA Tour on Thursday afternoon (January 4) at The Langham Huntington in Pasadena, Calif.

The 31-year-old actress was joined by her co-stars Bruce Greenwood, Matt Czuchry, Merrin Dungey, Melina Kanakaredes, Manish Dayal, and Shaunette Renee Wilson.

The show plans on taking on the topic of sexual harassment in the workplace during season one.

“It’s a female empowerment show. I’m a woman. Our staff is half female in the writers room as we’re trying to get as many female directors as we can. My take on the (topic of) sexual harassment was how my career was impacted. While I was never a victim, after four features they wouldn’t allow me to direct,” co-creator Amy Holden Jones said during the panel, via Deadline.
