This program is designed to help colleagues impacted by unforeseen circumstances such as funeral expenses; items lost in a fire, theft, or disaster; emergency medical situations; or other causes. When personal crises affect colleagues, they may not ask for help and could be suffering in silence. You have a great opportunity to live our Core Values and help support your fellow colleagues in their time of need by making a tax-deductible donation to our Colleague Emergency Assistance Program. You can do this in one of two ways:

  • Payroll Deduction Option - Authorize a set amount to be deducted and transferred from your paycheck on a bi-weekly basis by completing the form via the link below and sending it to the Payroll department. You may adjust or cancel this authorization at any time by submitting a payroll deduction termination form to payroll.
  • One-time Donation Via Check - Simply make a check payable to Trinity Health (indicate CEAP on the memo line), complete the form via the link below and send both to the Accounting department.

Connecticut

Mercy Community Health, Inc. - Hartford, CT

Saint Mary Home, part of The Mercy Community, has an enclosed garden space named The Secret Garden that would be ideal for picnics, art therapy classes, and other therapeutic programming; however, colleagues have observed that its use is limited by inadequate amounts of furniture that is uncomfortable and unsafe after years of wear. We request $5,034 to provide three units of ADA-approved Havana outdoor table, chairs, and shade covers for the courtyard nearest our memory care and short-term rehabilitation neighborhoods within our skilled nursing facility. Originally encompassed by a 12' high retaining wall, the enclosed outdoor area is surrounded by a local artist's hand-painted mural called "Everlasting Spring in The Secret Garden," making it an engaging, inspiring place for our residents to relax, enjoy a picnic, do therapeutic exercises in the fresh air, and visit with each other and with relatives and friends. This proposal is designed to broaden the usage of this attractive outdoor space and make it accessible to all residents and their visitors. We would be very proud to have three of the 10 units of Havana furniture we are seeking through grant funding bear the name of the Colleague Giving Campaign and provide our residents with an sensory experience that connects them with the beauty of nature.

Saint Mary's Health System - Waterbury, CT

The Saint Mary's Hospital Foundation is proud and inspired. We're proud to be with Trinity Health and inspired by our colleagues and our future. We are proud to work with amazing people who provide excellent healthcare and we're inspired by their dedication to our organization. We are proud to work hard to ensure that our Hospital and the departments within it have the resources necessary to provide the best of comfort and care to our patients. And we're inspired when our colleagues step up and make a gift to the Foundation. It means that they share our sentiments about Saint Mary's Hospital and Saint Mary's Hospital Foundation.

The past year, our Foundation has supported lifesaving technology for our Hospital. A new da Vinci XI Robot just arrived, and we are finishing up renovations on our new Imaging Suites in radiology that will offer a new 3D mammography, ultrasound, and bone density unit so that women (and men) who come here to be screened are offered the best technology we can offer. Last year, we rolled out a Caring for our Community Fund, which is heavily supported by our Workplace Giving Campaign. The fund helps to ensure that the care we can offer doesn't stop when our patients go back home. We have the resources to offer them transportation, meals, and services that they need to be healthy outside of the Hospital. Regardless of the fund that our colleagues decide to support, it impacts our patients and their families, and we appreciate that our colleagues believe in our ability to make an impact.

We're excited to offer various ways to give depending on what touches your heart. Learn more or make an online contribution click here and click on 'Be Inspired'.

Florida

Holy Cross Hospital - Fort Lauderdale, FL

Since 1955, Holy Cross Hospital in Fort Lauderdale has been a transforming and healing local presence. Under the guidance of the Sisters of Mercy, Holy Cross is more than a hospital. We are a healing ministry, designed to improve the health of our community.

This hurricane season has been catastrophic for so many communities in the Caribbean, Texas and our home, South Florida. Holy Cross alone incurred $4.3 million dollars in damages due to Hurricane Irma in September. Because our local community is dealing with rebuilding their own lives, we have not reached out for hurricane relief donations from them and will be assuming all costs through our general operations and unrestricted funds.

We ask that you please consider a gift to aid us in bridging this financial gap and continue to solely focus on our mission of serving our patients with compassionate and quality healthcare. Thank you in advance for helping us save lives.

Saint Joseph Health System - South Bend, IN

Sister Maura Brannick, CSC, Health Center, South Bend Indiana

Founded in 1986 by Sister Maura Brannick, CSC, the Health Center started out in a simple, two-stall coach house on Chapin Street in South Bend.

Iowa

Mercy Medical Center - Clinton, IA

Mercy Medical Center - Clinton has launched a $2 million capital campaign to raise funds for the purchase of a new linear accelerator at Mercy's Radiation Oncology Center. The linear accelerator is the machine that targets and destroys cancer cells with high intensity radiation therapy. The current machine is 12 years old and in the final stage of its life cycle. The campaign seeks to raise funds for the purchase of the latest technology in radiation therapy and the addition of a vault to house the machine. The new linear accelerator will benefit area residents by providing more precise treatment in less time, while also treating tumors deep within the body. The new machine will have the added benefit of built-in CT imaging capabilities to provide the exact location of the tumor prior to treatment, reducing the treatment margin for increased patient safety. Mercy Medical Center Clinton has raised $1.12 million with $880,000 remaining.

Mercy Medical Center - North Iowa - Mason City, IA

Nursing Scholarship Program and Loan Forgiveness Program

"The best thing you can do for anyone is give your best, which is something I hope I can say every day of my nursing career. A scholarship to me is more than getting money. It would mean to me that Mercy wants to help me grow in this career and be a part of their team. I always believe in giving back to those that help you out, and I hope I can do that for my patients, co-workers, and Mercy as a whole." - Allyson, RN on 6 West (Awarded a $16,000 scholarship on April 21, 2016.)

Mercy - North Iowa is blessed to have so many exceptional nurses like Allyson, but it is becoming more and more difficult to recruit and retain great nurses due to the severe nursing shortage in North Iowa. With this in mind, Mercy developed a Nursing Scholarship and Student Loan Forgiveness program as an incentive for nurses to commit to working for Mercy for four years. The $2 million program is providing approximately 125 nurses with up to $16,000 each in scholarships to purse their BSN degree or to help pay off student loans for their ADN or BSN degrees. Because of the severity of our shortage, local residents, O. Jay and Pat Tomson, committed a $1 million matching gift. Your donation will be matched dollar for dollar to help nurses like Allyson grow in their career and remain a part of our team and give their best to our patients and their families. If you would like to help, please donate now by clicking on the following link: click here. Thank you for your support.

3T MRI - The Future of Diagnostic Imaging at St. Peter's Hospital

St. Peter's Hospital Foundation is currently working on funding a $5 Million project to implement 3T MRI at its flagship clinical setting - St. Peter's Hospital in Albany, NY. 3T MRI is the most advanced imaging technique that utilizes a 3 ton magnet and comprehensive computer technology to create the most advanced, highest resolution images of both soft tissue and structural anatomy.
