Today’s nursing professionals have a passion for their work and helping patients and families. In this time of changing technology, these highly trained individuals must continue to hone and update their skills. The Sue Tadgerson Fund plays an integral role in keeping today’s nurses on the cutting edge of today’s advanced care.

For more than a century, Sparrow Hospital has benefited from the support of caring individuals who have committed their time, energy and financial resources to help fulfill Sparrow’s mission to improve the health status of the people of Mid-Michigan.

Now you have the opportunity to support nurses through the Sue Tadgerson Nursing Education and Research Fund.

The Sue Tadgerson Nursing Education and Research Fund allows nurses to explore health topics and find important answers in areas such as:

  • Pain management in regard to caregiver’s knowledge and beliefs about pain,
  • Infant mortality and risk factors that influence mortality,
  • Newborn trauma in relation to various suctioning methods and their effects,
  • Preventing bedsores and enhancing patient comfort as affected by various specialized mattresses, and
  • Stress in the workplace for neonatal nurses as they witness and experience grief and loss.

Your gift to the Nursing Education and Research Fund will allow the Nursing Research Committee members to continue:

  • identifying areas of opportunity for nursing research,
  • valuable research projects,
  • sponsoring journal clubs,
  • assisting graduate nursing students in patient research, and
  • working collaboratively with other disciplines on research.
