Make the greatest impact with your gift! Unrestricted gifts provide support to every area of Inspira, allowing us much-needed flexibility in directing funds to areas of critical need throughout the organization. Contributions provide funds for patients in need, community programs, educational scholarships for nurses, facility enhancements, and so much more!

**Please note that effective 2024, all gifts previously made to Employee-Identified Projects will be rolled into the Greatest Impact at Inspira. This provides even more flexibility to fund your project! Employees still have the opportunity to submit their projects to be philanthropically funded, and more information can be found by viewing the Employee Giving webpage.

Previous employee-identified projects include: 

• Cancer Support Art Therapy Program – Addressing the increasing need for mental health services of oncology patients. To pilot the program, there will be two visits at each oncology location – starting at the Leading-Edge Cancer Center at Inspira Medical Center Mullica Hill, and increasing as needed.
• Discharged Patient Clothing – Responding to requests from the nursing units for clothing for patients who are discharged to home. Tops and bottoms are being purchased in different sizes (M-4XL) to provide to our patients.
• Joeybands to Support the “Eat Sleep Console” Method – Providing parents with a tool that supports “Eat Sleep Console”, an evidence-based practice used to treat infants exposed to opioids. The focus is to use nonpharmacologic measures including skin to skin holding to help with newborn withdrawal symptoms. Joeybands helps with correct positioning and support for skin-to-skin contact.
• Weighted Blanket Therapy Research Study – Supporting a research study involving Acute Care adults who experience poor sleep or sleep quality while in-patients, and studying the effects of weighted blankets to see if they improve patient rest/sleep while admitted.
• Adult Activity Books for Patients at Guest Services – The Foundation funded an assortment of activity books, coloring books, and colored pencils to have when patients contact Volunteer/Guest Services requesting something to do.
• Sponge Detection Initiative for ORs and Labor & Delivery Units – Acquired new technology that assists with the elimination of retained sponges, a constant concern nationwide in all surgical areas. This technology allows patients to be scanned prior to closing the surgical site to provide confirmation that all sponges have been removed from the surgical site.
• Simulab Central Venous Catheterization in the Training Model Emergency Department – This equipment provides enhanced training tools for emergency department medical residents, allowing them to train on and earn certification in autonomous central line placement. This expedites care when time is critical and enhances the level of care our physicians are able to provide to the community we serve.
• Giraffe Infant Incubator at Maternal Child Health – These isolette beds enable our clinicians to provide care for infants while maintaining the baby’s body temperature. There was only one of these giraffe beds in the unit. Funding another one allows the team to provide more of this quality care to infants.
• Bereavement Resources – Contributed to the newly developed bereavement packets to be given to families of those who pass in one of our facilities.
