Stronger Together: Dartmouth Health Boosts the Power of Giving at SVMC (and beyond)

Celebrated annually on the first Tuesday after Thanksgiving, Giving Tuesday is a global movement that encourages people to support causes that have an impact in their communities.

This year’s Giving Tuesday (December 3^rd) is especially important to SVMC for two reasons:

1. This year, the Dartmouth Health Board of Trustees will be matching donations across the system for all gifts up to $40,000 allowing donors to increase the impact of their gift for their member hospital.

2. This increased giving power creates the perfect opportunity to help SVMC reach its goal of $2 million to advance the future of TeleHealth services at SVMC.

For supporters of SVMC, there is no better time to give. All donations received on or before December 3^rd will be matched by Dartmouth Health Board of Trustees. Your generous giving will go further than ever to help us sustain and support our state-of-the-art TeleHealth program that gives patients access to critical care and time-sensitive specialty services when they need it most.

SVMC TeleHealth includes:

TeleICU: provides 24/7 access to critical care physicians and nurses to assist in medical decision making, ordering, and documentation for critical care patients in the ICU.
TeleEmergency: provides 24/7 access to critical care physicians and nurses to assist in medical decision making, ordering, and documentation for critical care patients in the emergency department.
TeleNeurology: provides 24/7 support from neurologists to assist in medical decision making for patients in the emergency department or hospital with acute neurologic disease.
TelePsychiatry: provides 24/7 support from psychiatrists to assist in medical decision making for patients in the emergency department with mental health crises, medication needs, and to determine decision-making capacity.
TeleGenetics: provides outpatient service line to limit the long drives patient's face to see a geneticist; increasingly necessary for patients receiving treatment for cancer.
TelePharmacy: provides off-hours support for inpatient medication monitoring and revisions.

Another critical reason to give now!

Currently, the TeleHealth Endowment campaign has raised nearly $1.5 million, just $500,000 short of its $2 million goal.

When SVMC achieves its $2 million dollar goal, an anonymous donor will give an additional $2 million, fully establishing the TeleHealth Endowment Fund at $4 million.

Make your donation go further by giving on or before December 3^rd

Now is the perfect time to support the critical TeleHealth program at SVMC – you’ll maximize your gift with the Dartmouth GivingTuesday match and your gift will help sustain the future of TeleHealth at SVMC.
