GREAT PLAINS IS GRATEFUL TO ALL OUR DONORS
Our donors make a major impact on The Great Plains Healthcare Foundation programs they support. Whether they support a specific program or simply support the Great Plains Regional Medical Center mission, the result is clear — lives are changed, and the health of our community is vastly improved.
Neurological Sciences
Over $130,000 was raised at the 2011 Gala; Casino Royale. Funds were used to purchase new electroencephalogram video (EEG) equipment, additional computer monitoring equipment/software for sleep studies, and Telemedicine equipment for acute stroke treatment.
Great Plains Heart & Vascular Center
Funds raised at our 2010 Gala supported the purchase of the Volcano Imaging System. The system is used in diagnosing and treatment planning for vascular blockages.
Staxi Wheelchairs
Two Staxi Wheelchairs were purchased for patient use. These special chairs are new, modern, offer a smoother ride and are easier for volunteers and caregivers to push.
