Since the program began, the Hope Center staff have provided patient support for more than 2,000 individuals and their families.The Hope Center was established in 1996 to address the unmet needs of patients infected with HIV/AIDS in Knox and the surrounding 20 counties. It provides consistent, practical, psychological and supportive care programs at no charge to inpatients, outpatients, and families affected by HIV/AIDS and other serious illnesses. The Center relies entirely on charitable gifts and donations for its existence. In the last 16 years, more than 2,000 adults and children have received supportive services at no charge.

Activity 3

See Schedule O for additional details. Expenses - $205,677; Grants - $205,677The Patient Scholarship Program at Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center began in January 2006 with generous contributions from the Patricia Neal Golf Classic, a Fort Sanders Foundation Special Event, and private donations. The program provides inpatient rehabilitation services and outpatient therapies at Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center to individuals who otherwise would not have access to intensive rehabilitation. Most beneficiaries were employed at the time of their injury or illness but did not have health insurance. Since the progam's inception, scholarships have been extended to hundreds of individuals. To date, 95% of scholarship patients have been able to return home. This is a major accomplishment which greatly exceeds national standards. In its final report the Commission on Accrediation of Rehabilitation Facilities cited the scholarship program for "exemplary conformance to the standards" saying; "This level of funding support is unique to the field and is outstanding."
