Northern Cares Fund
Supporting Northern Regional Hospital employees that are experiencing unexpected financial hard times
The “Northern Cares” Fund is a program of our Foundation that was founded several years ago with the aim of supporting Northern Regional Hospital employees that are experiencing unexpected financial hard times.
The program was created a few years ago and a recent revitalization effort by the Foundation discovered Northern Cares and resurrected this important program. This is a very worthwhile cause, as this program will benefit our most important asset – our own employees.

Testimonials
“I am grateful and thankful for the Northern Cares program that the hospital offers to employees. I recently had an unexpected health issue and needed help paying for a procedure. I spoke to Tina about the program, and she was so great about explaining everything I needed to do. A few days after applying, I received the letter saying that the program would pay for my medical procedure! I had a type of precancerous tissue that needed to be quickly removed and because of the Northern Cares Program I was able to receive the treatment that I needed. If it wasn’t for this program, I would have had to keep putting off this procedure until I was able to afford it. Me and my family will be forever grateful for this program and the help that we received! This is a wonderful program that the hospital offers to its employees.”
“I would like to say thank you again for this Northern Cares Program. I received funds to help pay Northern medical bills. I am a widow and things have been hard since my husband passed away. I found myself faced with a cancer workup here at Northern Hospital. I had to have a CT scan, PET Scan, blood work and pulmonary function testing and see some specialists. I received a lot of medical bills and was not able to pay all of them. Setting up a payment plan was not an option as I don’t have extra money to put out each month. I reached out to the people in charge of this program and was awarded help. The money they gave me helped me pay some of the medical bills. I appreciated the help greatly.”
“We are so grateful for the Northern Cares Fund Program, as it provided some relief to our financial battle we have been faced with during [my husband]’s diagnosis. We were able to send monies given through this program to outstanding bills acquired during his treatment. It is difficult to adequately express our gratitude for this benefit we are offered here at Northern Regional Hospital. We feel not only support from our respective departments, but throughout the entire organization through the Northern Cares Program. Thank you Northern Cares Program, we are forever grateful!”
