I agree. Just as job search organization haave headhunters, hospital should have a person who is creative and willing to research and keep possible donors abreast of what the hospital is doing. Send them the hospital newsletter with some features involving thei patients. Where i disagree is his comment that patients or recipients have come to expect quality care regardless of their ability to pay. Obviously Mr McGinly has never lay helpless on a hospital guerney for five hours or he would not have made such a statement. What you want is for the pain to stop. If fundraising will help to alleviate the crisis hospitals are facing with the added influx of young elders, start by asking help from their local library who are in the business of asking can I help you?
A workman is worthy of his hire. Appeal to their sense of “ may I help you? Ask the recovering pstient to volunteer. Who knows what they might tap into.
