Magruder Hospital Foundation
2024: Providing Cancer Care Close to Home
Almost all of us have been touched by cancer in some way. It is a stressful and scary time. Whether it is a family member, close friend, coworker, neighbor or anyone else that you care about - you want the best care possible for them close to home. Here at Magruder Hospital, we have collaborated with University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center to provide nationally recognized expert cancer care in our community hospital. University Hospitals has updated their electronic medical records system which has created an immediate need for us to update our oncology medical records as well.
The goal of the Magruder Hospital Foundation is to fund this upgraded system. This will enable us to streamline operations, ensure that vital medical information flows seamlessly between facilities, enhance patient care and ultimately save lives.
With your help, we can make exceptional cancer care more accessible to everyone in the community. Every dollar counts. With your generous contribution we can make a difference in the lives of patients who rely on our hospital for their oncology care.

About Magruder Hospital Foundation
At Magruder, our passion is caring for people, and not just when they are sick. By being an active partner in our community, we are able to give back through education, prevention, support, and sponsorships. We are a nonprofit hospital owned solely by the community we are committed to serve.
In 2014, Magruder put another building block in place to support our community, The Magruder Hospital Foundation. This foundation is a nonprofit foundation supporting the mission of Magruder Hospital in Improving Lives Together.
Independent community hospitals are vital to the health and well-being of the communities they serve. Magruder has been a solid member of the community since 1940. As healthcare has evolved, small, independent community hospitals have faced a daunting future. As a result of the ever-changing funding programs and regulations, many small hospitals have merged with larger healthcare systems.
Even though Magruder faces these same challenges, we are committed to being an independent hospital with the freedom to make the best healthcare decisions for our community. With the help of donors like you, the foundation can provide necessary assistance to Magruder through equipment purchases, service line expansion and upgraded technology.
