A Gift Has Been Given To You
 

Sanford Initiatives

Sanford Initiatives are the defining projects of Sanford Health. Each is designed to have a meaningful impact on patients and healthcare for generations. The Sanford Initiatives will truly distinguish the system in its vision and accomplishments.
Watch the Sanford Initiatives video to learn more.


Initiative One: Investment in Children

“The gift” will ensure the development of services and facilities and the recruitment of physicians specifically focused on children for generations. Five pediatric clinics will be established in areas of need across the country. In time, this model may be expanded internationally. Each of these facilities will have outreach resources via the Sanford Children’s Hospital, the state-of-the-art facility slated to open in Sioux Falls, South Dakota in 2009.


Initiative Two: Sanford Research

Sanford Research currently conducts research in five key areas including cardiology and cancer and provides support and services to other studies within Sanford Health. "The gift" will allow significant growth and will include the creation of the Sanford Pediatric Institute which will focus on the health research needs of children.


Initiative Three: The Sanford Project

As has been demonstrated many times, focus, resolve and resource allocation to one priority area can accomplish world-changing results. The Sanford Project will apply such focus to identify and then resolve one of the most pressing health issues of our day.

To accomplish this, a committee of leading scientists will be retained to select the area for focused research and Sanford Health will assemble a team of top researchers to work on the project.


Initiative Four: Sanford Healthcare Campus of the Future

The integration of patient care, research and education, along with advances in technology, has created a demand for a whole new approach to healthcare campus and facility design. Sanford Health will meld these components by providing dedicated development zones for each distinct yet related activity.

While clearly providing a state of the art foundation for patient care, research and education, the campus will also be an important catalyst for economic development in the region.
