Overview
Mission
The mission of the CTRH Foundation is to encourage and accept gifts of all types that contribute to the health and well being of the communities we serve. The vision of the Foundation is that every individual in our vast service area has access to and enjoys superior healthcare and an improved quality of life.
What it reported doing in 2015
The 15 Unit Merriner Cottages provide temporary housing to medically underserved and underinsured cancer patients in the Nevada counties of Carson City, Churchill, Douglas, Lyon, Pershing, Story and Washoe. As well as the eastern portions of California counties of El Dorado, Placer and Nevada. Carson Tahoe Health serves a vast community of over 250,000 people, with a predominantly rural geographic area. On average, 55 of patients receiving care at the Carson Tahoe Cancer Center live outside of Carson City and more than 20 miles away. For many, the cost of travel and/or lodging would be a barrier to medical treatment, if the Merriner Cottages were not available.The Foundation underwrites the operating costs of the Cottages annually, housing over 200 patients and their families each year. Treatment periods for patients qualified to stay in the Cottages typically range from three to eight weeks. The estimated hard costs of an overnight stay in the Cottages is 80, with an average stay costing 1,800 per patient.
