Cheyenne Regional Medical Center Foundation

In 2016, the Foundation’s Denim and Diamonds proceeds purchased high fidelity simulators. Thanks to our community’s generosity, we’ve been able to add more simulators and training equipment to our Simulation Lab every year. This high tech lab provides a realistic environment for healthcare staff to practice difficult procedures, teamwork and critical thinking.

Today, Derik Nelson, Clinical Nursing Educator, invited us to observe these ED nurses participate in a simulation. They discovered quickly that the Sim Man’s headache was due to meningitis.

In 2025, 793 clinical staff, students and first responders from across our community were able to enhance their skills on these simulators here at Cheyenne Regional Medical Center.

Please contact Derik at 307-996-4732, if your business, school or governmental entity is interested in having a training with our simulators.

Last fall, the Foundation awarded our nursing excellence program a $2,300 grant for new CNA scrubs to assist newly hired or employees in financial need of new scrubs. The scrubs have arrived and are a popular item. Thank you to our donors!

The scrub repository is stocked with new and gently used RN, CNA, Medic, LPN, Respiratory Therapist, Pharmacy Tech and more scrubs in sizes XS to 3XL, and maternity. If you have scrubs to donate or are an employee in need of scrubs, please contact Sam Bass at 633-7082 or samuel.bass@crmcwy.org

Last month we ran a guess the number of surgeries done by CRMC’s Operating Room team in December. They were very busy and conducted 568 surgeries. Well done, OR team! We received multiple guesses which were very close so we drew the winner’s name out of a hat.

Congratulations to Clarissa Blue Gross! Clarissa, please contact us to claim your prize.
