When you make a gift to Blythedale, you are helping miracles unfold.
A teen awakens from a coma while his parents are at his bedside…With the help of her occupational therapist, a seven-year old makes a card for her grandmother, despite burns that limit her range of motion…An infant born prematurely begins ventilator weaning and takes his first independent breath as his mother sighs in relief.
We are inspired by all of our patients, and everyday, become more devoted to providing them with every opportunity to dream, aspire and achieve. Philanthropy is key to offering children the broad range of services to address their medical and rehabilitative needs, and transform their dreams to reality.
In our current health care economic climate, the reality is that reimbursements alone cannot cover the full cost of care for a child with extensive and complex medical needs. Blythedale treats patients regardless of financial ability and a staggering 70 percent of our patients are Medicaid dependent. The generosity of our friends and community fills in the critical gaps and allows Blythedale to grow and develop an ever-broadening scope of services.
At Blythedale, every gift matters. Every gift ensures that the Hospital can offer the level of care that medically fragile children and their families deserve.
