Pursing a Career as a Health Professional
Donations like yours make a difference to our employees and community members pursing careers in the health care profession. Maria is an administrative assistant at Norman Regional Health System. She loves working at Norman Regional and wants to advance her career possibilities in our health system. So she decided to go back to college–even though she works full-time, out of necessity, because she is also a single mom raising her small children. In her scholarship application letter to the Foundation’s scholarship Committee, she wrote, "After I graduate as a nurse I want to continue my employment as an RN with Norman Regional."
The Norman Regional Health Foundation annually awards scholarships to students who want to begin or advance their education in health care. "We want the best and brightest health professionals at Norman Regional, and the scholarship program gives the Foundation the opportunity to support individuals like Maria who want to give back to Norman Regional," states Susan Gladhill, Chairman of Norman Regional Health Foundation.

Fighting Against Breast Cancer
The Central Oklahoma Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure® provides support and funding for the Mammogram Initiative. The Mammogram Initiative is a comprehensive education, screening, and intervention program dedicated to assuring that female patients admitted to Norman Regional Health System have excellent breast health. The program advocates breast health and awareness, and encourages women to schedule mammograms. This program leads to earlier identification of breast cancer, when it is most treatable, resulting in fewer related instances of prolonged illness and death.

Creating Healthy Futures for Infants
Norman Regional offers the newest, state-of-the-art Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) solely dedicated to the health and wellbeing of babies. The NICU located at Norman Regional’s HealthPlex campus off I-35 and Tecumseh Road provides critical care to newborns with life threatening health issues. Having a baby in NICU is a challenging time for parents and the child. The fragility of new life makes a loving caress by mother or father even more important. Thousands of babies across south-central Oklahoma begin their lives at Norman Regional, and your continued donations provide that healing and loving touch when Baby needs it most.
