Foundation Initiatives
Expand Service Lines
We support new and expanding medical services by purchasing the equipment and technology needed, as well as staff education to expand their clinical skills.
Capital Projects
We support the renovation and expansion of our facilities as needed for patient care. We are anticipating a major capital project on the horizon as well. We will be excited to make that announcement soon.
Medical Equipment and Technology
We provide replacement and new state-of-the-art technology and equipment to insure that our staff and providers can provide the highest quality of care.
Support Care for Those In Need
Our financial support overcomes the financial barriers to care for members of our community. Together with Teton Valley Health Care our goal is to make sure that finances will not prevent any patient from receiving the care they need.
Clinical Education
Supporting education for our clinical staff maintains the high level of skills necessary to provide the best patient care possible.
Below are the ongoing priorities for the Teton Health Care Foundation, and we welcome support for them. To discuss our most pressing needs beyond this, please reach out to Nancy Osmundson, Executive Director at nosmondson@tvhcare.org or by calling 406-451-1040.
