The Nebraska Medical Center hospital and University of Nebraska Medical Center share
one campus for the benefit of our community’s health. The university is responsible
for research and educational successes. The staff at The Nebraska Medical Center
is dedicated to improving the quality of patient care the hospital provides.
In giving a gift to the hospital you are giving our staff, the tools they need to
effectively treat patients to achieve the best possible outcome. A gift to the hospital
enables us to build better and more modern patient facilities, makes purchasing
of state-of-the-art technology possible and allows us to assist patients and their
families receiving care at the hospital.
