MatchDay Fundraising Project
Name of Project/Initiative: IV Pump Replacements at Norton County Hospital
​
Fundraising Goal: $19,000
Project Description:
The Norton Regional Health Foundation at Norton County Hospital works diligently to fundraise
for equipment and facility improvements to help the hospital fulfill its mission of meeting the
region’s evolving healthcare needs.
This year, we’re raising $19,000 to purchase 15 new IV pumps for Norton County Hospital. These pumps will improve care across departments, especially in nursing and lab services.
“Upgrading our IV pumps means more than just new equipment — it ensures our nursing staff have immediate access to the most current drug library, reducing medication errors and ensuring patient safety with every dose administered.”— Sarah Mohr, Director of Nursing, Norton County Hospital
Strong local healthcare is vital to rural communities. Your support helps us continue to provide high-quality care and build a healthier Norton County.

How the project will benefit Norton County
All citizens of Norton County Hospital patients would benefit from purchasing these items.
Patients will be comforted knowing Norton County Hospital has the state of the art equipment needed to care for and administer medications to them. The upgraded pumps will help staff effectively administer IV medications and will help ensure that staff have immediate access to the most current drug library. The upgraded pumps will ensure patient safety with every IV medication administered.
The Norton Regional Health Foundation aims to raise $19,000 for the purchase of 15 IV pumps to replace and expand the existing fleet of pumps at Norton County Hospital. Match Day is a tremendous opportunity to raise funds to assist in hospital equipment upgrades to improve quality of care.
