Community Companions

Have you ever wondered what the highest honor is that can be bestowed upon a health care provider? It’s the decision of a patient, family member, or community member to help the provider by means of a financial contribution. Crittenden Health Systems (CHS) is the community’s health system — it’s your health system. Our organization consists of Crittenden County Hospital, Crittenden County EMS, Salem Springlake Care Center, Marion Home Health, and Crittenden County Convalescent Center. The CHS medical staff represents many specialties, whose services cover a wide range of inpatient and outpatient surgical services, obstetrics/gynecology, CCU, MRI and CT scanning, and state-of-the-art Echocardiogram diagnostic capabilities, just to name a few.

Healing Hands, Caring Hearts

At Crittenden Health Systems, we develop resources that support Crittenden County Hospital, Crittenden County Convalescent Center, Salem Springlake Care Center, Marion Home Health, and Crittenden Emergency Medical Service in providing access to the best healthcare available. These resources help us care for new life, educate and support our patients and their caregivers, and ensure a healthier future through nurturing and treating with dignity those who are ill. Through your philanthropic support of CHS, we believe that the quality of life for our patients, their families, and their loved ones will be enhanced. Therefore, we encourage giving to life and a lifetime of giving.


Donor Recognition

The Donor Recognition Program was designed to express our sincere appreciation to those individuals who have helped ensure the mission of Crittenden Health Systems by giving the ultimate gift… something they have acquired during their lifetime. Nine levels of giving have been established to recognize our supporters. Donors are placed into giving levels according to the total donations made during a calendar year.

Levels of Giving:

  • Associate    
  • Companion   
  • Pacesetter   
  • Artisan        
  • Patron         
  • Samaritan    
  • Diplomat      
  • Humanitarian 
  • Philanthropist

$5,000-9,999
$10,000-24,999
$25,000-49,999

Donors at the Companion through Philanthropist levels of giving are honored annually at a recognition dinner where they are also presented with an appreciation gift. The names of the donors who participate at these levels will also be placed on a plaque located on the organizational Wall of Honor soon to be located in the Crittenden County Hospital lobby.

CHS acknowledges all donations in writing upon receipt. Acknowledgments will be made to both the donor and the honoree or designated family member. Donor names are also listed in the organizational and community newsletters, unless donors request otherwise.

CHS is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) corporation, which means donations are tax deductible.
 

Categories of Giving

  • Donations (Unrestricted and Restricted): Donors may request donations be used in areas of greatest need (unrestricted), or they may request the donations be used for a particular department or service (restricted).

  • Honorary & Memorial Gifts: Throughout the course of a year, there are many special occasions to be commemorated: holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, or the remembrance of lost loved ones. Honoring the special people in your life on these special days through a gift to CHS is a memorable way of expressing your appreciation and respect.

  • Special Requests: From time to time, the individual facilities have special requests, i.e. supplies, decorations, updated fixtures. If you are interested in helping meet these special needs, please contact Administration at (270) 965-1001.
