Your gift to Southwest Health is more than just a onetime donation. You’re helping create better care experiences for families and individuals across our community.

One of the items on our wish list is an additional EKG machine to complete our fleet. This would allow for an EKG machine setup at every nurse's station, easing staff stress and ensuring each patient receives timely pre-op care.
