GRANT: School Telehealth
Telehealth uses technology to deliver care at a distance. Essentially, a child will have a 'virtual office visit' with a provider via a secure and confidential channel using computer cameras, telehealth equipment and speakers.
GRANT: Hope Fund
In 2019, the Hope Fund was created to relieve financial burdens of cancer patients in need. Examples include indirect costs associated with needing cancer treatment, like utilities, transportation, food or caregiving.
GRANT: Safe Haven Baby Box
In part to a grant from the Foundation, the hospital recently installed a Safe Haven Baby Box which allows a mother to safely, securely and anonymously surrender her newborn if she’s unable to provide care. Funded by the William A. & Martha H. Hillenbrand Foundation, the Baby Box has been installed on the exterior wall of the hospital which faces Mitchell Avenue.

Grateful Patient
Maybe it was a smile, kind word or gesture which brought you or your loved one comfort. At MMH, patients often ask if there is a way for them to recognize caregivers who provided exceptional care during their stay. Through our Grateful Patient program, we invite you to make a monetary donation to the Health Foundation in your caregiver's name.
