St. Luke’s Magic Valley Regional Medical Center is committed to improving the health of the community it serves. Each year the hospital Board of Trustees grants financial support to community organizations that are also working to address identified community health priorities and improve the health of the people of the region.

Proposals for the 2007 Community Health Improvement Fund must address one or more of the following community health priorities:

Access to Care
Injury and Violence

Applicants are expected to demonstrate collaboration and coordination with other community organizations, including SLMVRMC.
