September 10, 2019
Renown Health partners with Hallmark Cards, Inc. to open a Hallmark Gold Crown store today inside Renown Regional Medical Center. Renown owns and operates the business in an effort to provide patients and visiting families with meaningful gifts, heartfelt tokens and comforts of home.
In line with Hallmark’s efforts to create a more emotionally connected world, the store offers more than 500 greeting cards and Hallmark Keepsake Ornaments among other gift items. Seasonal and home décor are also available alongside specialty items including Willow Tree and Jim Shore figurines and ornaments, festive scents and home accessories by Michael Design Works, and intricately stitched fashion accessories by Vera Bradley.
“We’re proud to create a space where patients and their families can find gifts that foster a deep level of connection,” said Renown Regional Medical Center Vice President and Chief Executive Officer, Erik Olson. “The new Hallmark Gold Crown complements the existing offerings in the Shops at Renown and removes an element of stress from our visiting families by providing expressions of support onsite. When it comes to treating the whole person, facilitating ease for caretakers is a big factor.”
"At Hallmark Gold Crown, we believe in the power between emotional wellness and physical wellness, which is one of the many reasons we're excited to expand our hospital program to the Renown Regional Medical Center" explained Steve Farley, president of Hallmark Retail. "We hope this store can be a place for patients, their families, and Renown Health employees to take a moment to recharge and discover meaningful ways to connect with others."

Today, Renown Health released its 2027-2029 Community Health Implementation Strategy, outlining how the health system will work alongside community partners to address the most pressing health needs identified through the 2026 Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA). Additionally, applications are now open for Renown's 2027 grant cycle. As northern Nevada's largest independent, locally owned not-for-profit academic health system, Renown Health reinvests 100% of its profits back into programs, services and partnerships that improve community health.
"The Community Health Needs Assessment helped us understand where our community faces the greatest challenges and opportunities," said Brian Erling, MD, MBA, President and CEO, Renown Health. "Our implementation strategy represents our commitment to action. Through collaboration, investment and measurable goals, we will continue working alongside community partners to improve health outcomes across northern Nevada. As a not-for-profit academic health system, this work is imperative to our commitment to improving our community's health and ensuring our resources are directed toward areas of greatest need.”
The three-year strategy focuses on four priority areas identified through the CHNA: mental health, access to health services, economic stability, and health risk behaviors and early detection. To support implementation of these priorities, Renown is opening applications for community funding opportunities designed to advance local solutions to identified health needs.
