The 174,000-square-foot Love Family Women’s Center will improve access to care for thousands more women each year. The new center will offer comprehensive, collaborative care that’s in touch with the evolving needs of our patients.
Access and Assistance
The volunteer-run Good Samaritan Clinic helps underserved community members access health screenings and quality care. Mercy Health Foundation Oklahoma City also benefits telemedicine technology and other programs that close gaps in care for Oklahomans.
Innovative Care
Like the Sisters of Mercy before us, we are blazing a new trail to find lifelong cures through modern thinking and innovation.
Nearly 2,000 new cancer cases are diagnosed in the Coletta Building annually. Mercy’s oncologists offer advanced treatment, while keeping patients close to home. But our doctor’s can’t do it alone. Mercy Health Foundation and our donors are committed to supporting technology-driven programs and projects, education for co-workers in specialized fields, advanced diagnostic equipment and cutting-edge treatment options.
At Mercy’s NeuroScience Institute (NSI), providers are using world class techniques and equipment to diagnose and treat stroke patients. Many of Mercy’s stroke patients are able to go directly home instead of to a rehabilitation facility after experiencing a stroke. Mercy’s NSI is Oklahoma City’s premiere stroke center. Your gifts allow us to bring transformative and life-saving advancements to your friends and neighbors.
Women’s and Children’s
Catherine McAuley, Mercy’s founder, had a particular concern for the poor. More specifically, she worked to assist women and children in need.
Mercy Health Foundation Oklahoma City continues Catherine’s legacy by supplementing the program and equipment needs for Oklahoma City’s labor and delivery unit and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The Foundation also funds breast health services and Project Early Detection, a program that helps uninsured women get mammograms and treatment.
The Markayla Hope James Memorial Nursing Scholarship Fund was established at Mercy Hospital Oklahoma City in March, 2021. The fund will provide scholarships for nurses pursuing an advanced degree in the nursing profession. To apply, please contact: Caroline.Leahystringer@mercy.net
