You power the ideas and innovations that transform care
Innovation has always been part of Cone Health's DNA, and today it's central to our move toward value-based care, where prevention, access and whole-person wellness define success. There will always be more effective, more collaborative and more compassionate ways to address health challenges, and Cone Health is committed to staying at the forefront of this transformation.
Donor support plays a vital role in that progress. You enable Cone Health to test new ideas and pilot programs that grow into systemwide solutions. When Mae Douglas made her generous gift to launch the Community Health Worker initiative, she helped us demonstrate the impact of trusted guides who meet people where they are and connect them to care. Building on that success, Cone Health has now invested in a full team of community health workers serving neighborhoods across our region. It's a powerful example of how philanthropy fuels innovation and inspires long-term change.
Where else can you see donor-inspired innovation coming to life? The new Steven D. Bell Family Heart and Vascular Center, designed for collaborative, prevention-first care where providers work together to address every aspect of a patient's health. School-based telehealth clinics that are contributing to decreasing absenteeism rates and healthier families. The ECMO machine, an advanced form of life support that comes to the rescue in high trauma and acute respiratory distress situations.
Reach out to our Philanthropy team to learn more. Every gift strengthens this culture of innovation, helping us design care that's smarter, more connected and centered on the people we serve. Together, we can make tremendous strides. Cone Health is building a model for innovation that redefines how health systems deliver care. Below are a few of our most critical funds designed to focus on outstanding patient outcomes. If you are ready to make a gift now, visit our donate page.
