It is the mission of the Mason General Hospital Foundation to enhance the quality of health care, enjoyed by patients of Mason County, by providing financial support toMason
General Hospital, Oakland
Bay Pediatrics, Shelton Family Medicine, Shelton Orthopedics, the Surgery Clinic and the Eye Clinic in Shelton.. Mason General Hospital Foundation
is a 501 (c) (3) charitable organization.

support for Public Hospital District No.1 through:
Why is Your Support Needed?
Special events such as the annual golf
tournament and Fantasy Forest not
only raise funds for MGHF, but build community support for Mason
General Hospital through their participants and
volunteers. Funds have been raised by Mason
General Hospital Foundation to go toward the purchase
of medical equipment. With these funds the Foundation has
purchased items such as:
 CMAX Surgical Table- EKG Machine
- Mammogram Machine
- Defibrillator
- Patient Monitor Machine
- Total Care Patient Beds
As technology in healthcare improves and the
population ages, the public places greater demands on hospitals.
At the same time, insurance providers, including Medicare and
Medicaid, are paying less to hospitals making the need for
support from organizations
like the Foundation more and more important.
