“I AM ALIVE AND WALKING TODAY BECAUSE OF THE TREATMENT I RECEIVED AT REGIONAL ONE HEALTH.”
The Importance of Philanthropy
The landscape of healthcare in the United States is undergoing the most significant period of change we have seen in our 185-year history. At Regional One Health Foundation, we believe that times of great change are also times of great opportunity. As the medical community adapts to new realities, the healthcare institutions that thrive will be those that can deliver world-class care while managing costs; caregivers who realize the importance of transitioning chronic disease patients from treatment to prevention; and hospital systems with dedicated professionals who focus on innovation and constant improvement.
We have been champions of medical excellence for 185 years at Regional One Health. With the generosity of our donors and supporters, we will continue to lead through innovation, research and academic training, not just in Memphis and the Mid-South, but nationally.
