Morton Plant Mease Health Care Foundation

Our office has re-opened! We sustained some minor damage, but are ready to continue our work improving the health and wellness of our community and supporting the hospitals of Morton Plant Mease.

In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, we extend our heartfelt thoughts and prayers that all of you are safe. Amidst the destruction and loss, we see the resilience in our friends and neighbors working together to recover and rebuild. We know this will take time, but we have faith in our community. Our Foundation is collecting these specific items to be distributed to those in need: Plastic Bins/Totes Flashlights New Batteries Feminine Products Tarps Shop our Amazon list here: https://ow.ly/SoJ350TBmCm You may drop off or ship to 1200 Druid Rd.

Congratulations to Luis, a nurse on Barnard 6 at Morton Plant Hospital for receiving the prestigious DAISY® nursing award. DAISY® is a national award that is among the highest in the nursing profession. Luis was nominated by a patient who has a chronic disease that causes excruciating pain and requires frequent hospitalizations. Thank you for your compassion and empathy, Luis!

Thank you to our incredible Nurses Giving Society members for a memorable gathering last night, even if it was hot and rainy!
