Arcy Healthcare made a gift of $100,000 to support the College of Nursing at Texas Woman’s University (TWU). The donation will create an endowment to support two new scholarships:
Healthcare Endowed Nursing Scholarship Fund, $50,000
This scholarship provides an opportunity to our leaders of tomorrow and assists TWU’s goal of helping every student who chooses the TWU College of Nursing to pay for tuition and living expenses. With almost 50% of the student body Pell eligible, this gift will support dedicated, motivated, and some of the most deserving students at TWU.
Arcy Healthcare Endowed Nursing Faculty Excellence Fund, $50,000
This scholarship provides recognition for exceptional teaching and nursing excellence. It will supplement faculty salaries for those that engage with innovative solutions to community health and aging-in-place initiatives. It will assist TWU with supporting and retaining outstanding faculty in hospice, palliative, and home health care.
CEO Jimmie Stapleton said, “One of our essential goals is to be part of the community, and we want the community to be part of us. Without nurses to staff our clinical program, we wouldn’t be able to do our jobs.”
Arcy Healthcare is proud to be able to support the community and the next generation of nurses, continuing its culture of caring.
My name is Jimmie Stapleton. I am the founder and CEO of Arcy Healthcare. Arcy Healthcare includes Arcy Hospice, Arcy Supportive Care, MaximaCare Home Health and Arcy at Home.
Arcy Hospice was opened in 2007 to provide care and support for individuals and families facing a life limiting illness. It was established after my wife Ellen, who had been diagnosed with breast cancer, had completed her chemo and radiation therapies. At that time, things were looking positive, and we wanted to do something for our community that had been so supportive of our family during her treatments. Unfortunately, the cancer returned a few years later, and she subsequently passed away under our care in 2010.
In the years that followed, I began to see the need to provide the same level of excellent care to patients across the continuum of care. Therefore, we have added a home health division (MaximaCare Home Health), a palliative care division (Arcy Supportive Care), and a home care division, (Arcy at Home). With the addition of these divisions, we can meet most of the post-acute care needs for you and your family in your home.
I started Arcy Hospice with my wife as my motivation to provide exceptional care and support in the patient’s home, where they are surrounded by family and where they feel most comfortable. I’m proud to say that our staff provides some of the best in home care in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area.
Please let us know if we can enrich the quality of life for you or a loved one.
Sincerely,
Jimmie Stapleton – Founder and CEO
