Patient Care

Make a Difference

Ensure every person gets excellent, compassionate care

Everyone deserves great health care, close to home

An excellent patient experience and access to medical care are important for healing and quality of life

Our donors make a difference every day in many ways, large and small. The skilled and compassionate care you expect from Bon Secours is enhanced by gifts to the Foundation.

When our care teams need a piece of equipment or other resources to take good care of our patients, donations are a vital source of funding for unforeseen costs. When our patients are uninsured or can't afford care, donations cover the cost of things they need to get well. When new programs and services are needed to deliver health care in communities across the Richmond area, donations make it possible.

You can direct your gift for the greatest needs to improve patient care or even designate it to support one of our specific patient-care related services.

Patient Assistance Programs

After leaving the hospital, many patients need medications or special equipment to continue their recovery. Each of our Richmond-area hospitals has a donor-supported patient care fund (sometimes known as a Good Help or Good Samaritan Fund) to help pay for patients’ needs as they continue healing at home. Every dollar you contribute goes toward helping patients with things like:

Prescriptions
Medical equipment
Special preemie car seats
Groceries for those who can’t work during recovery

You can direct your gift to any of our hospitals' patient assistance funds.

Memorial Regional Medical Center Good Help Fund
Rappahannock General Hospital Care Fund
Richmond Community Hospital Good Help Fund
Southern Virginia Medical Center Good Help Fund
Southside Medical Center Good Help Fund
St. Francis Care Fund
St. Mary’s Hospital Good Samaritan Fund

Instructive Visiting Nurse Association (IVNA-Wellness)

Our IVNA-Wellness team is an important part of Bon Secours' Community Health. They offer a continuum of wellness, prevention, screening and primary care health services. They also give referrals to community wellness resources. Our staff can provide care that helps prevent patients from going to the hospital or emergency room again.

Every year, IVNA-Wellness nurses perform over 14,000 vaccinations in Richmond and in surrounding communities. And thanks to donors like you, adults and children can get immunizations, regardless of their ability to pay.

Cullather Quality of Life Center

A cancer diagnosis is never easy, but the physical and mental effects of a brain tumor can be especially devastating to a person and their loved ones.

Donations support many integrative therapies and support services that improve the quality of life for people living with cancer, including:
