The new Cancer Center’s goal is to alleviate the stress of travel and allow for comprehensive, patient-centered treatment and support in one convenient location. It is expected to allow the hospital to serve 38 percent more cancer patients, from 1,300 to 1,800 each year, and will offer cancer treatment options including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiation therapy.

“This partnership will ensure patients receive the close-to-home care that they need, while aiding economic growth for the residents of Shasta and surrounding rural counties,” said Rick Smith, President and CEO of Tri Counties Bank.

Tri Counties Bank has a long history of supporting Mercy Foundation North projects, including:

  • The purchase of new, upgraded equipment for the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU);
  • The expansion and renovation of Mercy Mt. Shasta’s Emergency Department;
  • The purchase of respiratory equipment for patients in Shasta and Tehama counties who suffer from respiratory diseases and ailments; and
  • Nutrition programs for seniors through the Dignity Health Connected Living Agency.

"Mercy Foundation North is deeply grateful for the tremendous support Tri Counties Bank has given to advancing healthcare in the North State," said Jake Mangas, president of Mercy Foundation North. "This impactful gift to the Regional Cancer Center campaign will help cancer patients receive treatments in one location and make a significant difference to the wellbeing of cancer patients and their families."
