Gift Enhances Advanced Life Support Training for Our Nursing Professional Development Center
Friends of Strong recently funded the purchase of new training equipment for the UR Medicine Center for Nursing Professional Development's American Heart Association Training Center, including a QCRP AED w/Airway, ShockLink and SimPad simulator, and child-sized manikins compatable with the SimPad simulator—further helping refine the world-class care our nurses provide.
New ‘Light Up Strong’ Initiative Shows Our Support for Patients, Families
Many illnesses today are known by name, and also by color. That's just one reason Strong Memorial Hospital—thanks to the generosity of Friends of Strong—is now going red, blue, green or gold, depending on the observance. Splashes of color outside SMH now greet patients, families and guests when they arrive—creating a friendly and welcoming environment while also raising awareness of the illnesses we research and treat here at URMC.
Gift Planning—A Legacy to Be Proud Of
Our volunteers are generous in giving their time to Friends of Strong. You too can support Friends of Strong, both by volunteering and gift planning—enabling you to make a current or future gift to help us better serve our patients, families and visitors.
Friends of Strong Gives Thanks for Your Support
Every day. Every year, many of us stop by a URMC Finger Lakes Coffee Roasters for a refreshing chai, visit the hospital Gift Shop to grab a greeting card for someone special, or attend one of the many fundraisers organized by the Friends of Strong. What you may not know, is that the proceeds generated from each of these interactions contribute, in no small way, to patient- and family-centered care initiatives throughout Strong Hospital.
