Annual Giving

CELEBRATE OUR PAST. SUPPORT OUR PRESENT. SHAPE OUR FUTURE.

SampsonRMC is among only a handful of independent, community-based hospitals remaining in North Carolina. More than a hospital, SampsonRMC is a health system of outpatient and professional services – all committed to excellence in delivering quality healthcare to our community.

Our Foundation supports the health system in fulfilling its mission by funding new equipment, renovations, special projects, and capital investments. Funds are raised through grants, special events, and donor contributions.

We value your continued support as our Foundation grows to meet the expanding needs of our community hospital; below, you’ll find details about some of our recent projects.

SampsonRMC is among Sampson County's largest employers, with nearly 600 full-time exempt employees, and additional mid-level and physician providers directly contracted for full-time and part-time services

Facility Operations is a behind-the-scenes, yet critical function to providing quality patient care. Significant investments are required to maintain a safe environment and comply with regulations. SampsonRMC is exceptionally challenged by an aging infrastructure, and essential repairs, upgrades and replacement of systems are continuously needed.

As imaging equipment nears the end of its useful life and technology improves, reinvestment is essential. Approximately $4 million over the next three years will be required to advance imaging technology for Sampson County.

At any given time, $3-5 million in capital needs are part of a rolling plan to address replacement of essential medical devices and purchase new equipment for expansion of services.

In a digital world, our IT infrastructure is vital to delivering patient care. IT is the backbone for that integrity, which includes security of networks, support for advancement in medical systems and technology, regulatory compliance, and expansion of telemedicine. More than $1.5 million will be required over the next two years for operability in these areas.

Your gift helps transform lives and strengthen our healthcare system.
