United Health Services
UHS is proud that our organization has been selected as a recipient of a transformative grant from the Mother Cabrini Health Foundation, as part of the Foundation’s new Nursing Initiative. UHS will receive nearly $3.9 million in multi-year funding to strengthen nursing excellence, support nurses at every stage of their careers, and improve outcomes for the patients and families we serve across the Greater Binghamton region…
…The Mother Cabrini Health Foundation selected UHS from among more than 50 hospitals that applied for this competitive grant following a request for proposals. The Foundation’s decision was informed by an extensive selection process and a vision for equitable healthcare access across diverse regions of New York State.
The Nursing Initiative was developed in response to critical findings from a healthcare workforce report produced by the Foundation in partnership with the Center for Health Workforce Studies in Albany. The report identified challenges such as insufficient nurse preparedness, burnout, workplace violence, and generational shifts in career expectations—all of which the Initiative aims to address.
