Mercy opens doors to new addition
Lifeline A Mercy Hospital Publication - Spring 2015 Mercy opens doors to new addition Mercy began caring for patients in its new, state-of-the-art addition in January. Technologically advanced while creating a healing environment, the new addition enhances patient care, privacy and safety. Top: Mercy’s Emergency/Main entrance is now located on County Road 61. Middle: Barb Arnold, Receptionist, greets patients and visitors. Bottom: Waiting Room on second floor is designed with family comfort in mind. More photos on page 2 Patients are already feeling the difference. “We’ve already received comments from people who’ve been patients here before about how much more restful our new facility is,” said Mike Delfs, Mercy CEO. “That healing atmosphere is part of the patient-centered focus that has driven this entire building and renovation project.” The new addition features 25 private patient rooms, including new Birthing Center suites, all located on the second floor, away from public traffic. The new emergency department also features private treatment rooms and two trauma suites, a vast improvement over the old facility. The new radiology department and lab are now conveniently located near the Emergency Department. Comfortable waiting areas are designed with families in mind. With the completion of the new addition, the second phase of the project is now underway. Renovation of the existing hospital space, including remodeled spaces for rehab, chemo, sleep studies and cafeteria, will be completed late this summer. A ribbon-cutting ceremony will be held when the entire project is completed. new addition from page 1 Left: Spacious new lab features a dedicated waiting area and new blood draw rooms.

The stroke-ready designation means that Mercy is equipped to evaluate, stabilize and provide emergency care to patients with acute stroke symptoms. For example, a stroke-ready hospital always has a stroke team available, has a CT scanner onsite and can administer life-saving medications. The stroke hospital designation process is the principal component of the Minnesota Stroke System. Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death in Minnesota, accounting for about 2,000 deaths annually according to the MDH. Minnesota hospitals treat more that 11,000 strokes each year. Nearly one in three Minnesota stroke victims first receive care at a small, rural hospital, highlighting the importance of smaller hospitals becoming designated stroke-ready. “A stroke is a brain emergency,” said Donita Korpela, RN, Mercy Director of Patient Services. “Time is crucial in stroke care and that’s why it is so important that Mercy is ready to deliver high-quality stroke care close to home.” It is also critical for community members to know how to spot a stroke fast and call 9-1-1. Recognize the signs and symptoms of a stroke by remembering F.A.S.T. Stroke is an Emergency Act FAST & CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY Face Ask the person to smile. Does one side of the face droop? Arms Ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift downward? Speech Ask the person to repeat a simple phrase. Is speech slurred/strange? Time If you observe any of these signs, call 911 immediately.

In the years since, Marie has kept track of The Foundation’s other projects, contributing when the project inspired her and her finances allowed. You could say she sort of got into the habit. Last December, Marie found she was able to make a generous gift to The Mercy Foundation. She sent a check for $1,000 to be used for The Foundation’s commitment to buy new patient lift equipment. “When I saw they were raising money for new lifts, I wanted to help. They should have had those things a hundred years ago!” laughed the energetic retired nurse. Marie speaks from experience—her long nursing career started at Mercy in 1968 and continued until 1973 when she moved to a new position. Foundation Executive Director Cindy Carlson called Marie and asked if she’d consider allocating her gift for the Well Within Reach building fund instead. “Our Autumn gala was a huge success,” explained Carlson. “We covered our $16,000 commitment for that project through our event. What we really need the help with was—and is--our building fund campaign.” Marie was open to the switch. “I told Cindy to use the money where it’s needed most,” Marie said. “Once I knew those lifts were paid for, I was glad to know the money would be used for another true need. We’re lucky to have this new facility right here.” EAT, PLAY, RUN Watch for these spring Mercy Foundation Events! APRIL: EAT The Mercy Foundation will again host a Kettle River Pizza sale beginning April 6. Visit www.mercymooselake. org for details! Proceeds allocated to The Well Within Reach building fund. MAY: RUN The Mercy Foundation Moose Run is slated for Saturday, May 2. The Mercy Foundation is the major sponsor of this family-friendly event. Visit www. Marie received further information from The Mercy Foundation about its on-going Well Within Reach building fund campaign to raise $1-$1.5 million for Mercy’s new hospital wing and major renovation of its existing facility. Nearly $800,000 has been raised since the campaign kicked off in January 2013, but gifts have slowed in recent months. Marie learned that her year-end gift could be considered the initial gift of a five-year, $5,000 pledge to the building fund. In early March, she decided the arrangement will work well for her while providing The Mercy Foundation with crucial support for the building fund. “Our family history is all wrapped up in Mercy’s” Marie explained. “I worked there as a nurse for years, all four of our children were born there, my husband and I received care there, all four of our parents did, too. My son, Donn and two of my daughtersin-law have worked there. And this is just our immediate family!” Marie’s gift will be acknowledged with the naming of one of Mercy’s new Pre/Post Surgical rooms in the new wing. “My husband and I worked hard and saved our whole lives. It’s nice, now, to know that I can take care of my needs and still share some of that right here where I live, so that it helps our family, friends and neighbors.” If you’d like to get into the habit of giving, please call Cindy Timmons Carlson at the Foundation office on 218.485.5586 or [email protected]. northlandrunner.com for a printable registration form. Event proceeds are distributed to local non-profits by the Moose Run Committee. JUNE: PLAY The Mercy Foundation’s annual Golf Tournament is set for Friday, June 26. The 18-hole scramble style golf tournament sells out early. Registration begins mid-May. Proceeds allocated to The Well Within Reach building fund.

Oakview was founded ten years ago by local physicians Dan and Sue Benzie. Since then it has grown to include three homes caring for up to 34 elders who need supportive living services. Oakview offers a range of services provided in three separate homes located together in one neighborhood. Each home offers ten private or semi private rooms surrounded by a central living and dining room. Services at Oakview include health and personal care ranging from basic supportive services to complex medical care.

One of the three homes is dedicated to caring for those with memory loss conditions like Alzheimer’s disease. All staff in this special home have had training to help them better understand and care for those with memory loss. Drs. Dan and Sue Benzie stated that they feel a transition to Augustana is a good fit for the community, “Augustana is committed to quality About Augustana Care Augustana Care fosters fullness of life for older generations and others in need, while helping those we serve to live the life that most inspires them. The principles that guide our work include the following: to value older generations’ talents and experience; to provide the care residents need, when and where they need it; connect residents to the people and things that mean the most to them; and to support residents and families with spiritual care that speaks to who they are. Learn more about Augustana Care at www. augustanacare.org. In January of 2015, Augustana Mercy Health Care Center in Moose Lake received the highest possible overall rating of five stars from the Center for Medicare Services. The rating was awarded because the health care center’s National Nursing Home Composite Quality Measure is in the top 10 percent of the state. An overall five-star rating for each care community is based on star 6 care, good employee relations and will continue the service and mission of Oakview into the future.” Steve Mork, Administrator in Moose Lake for Augustana Care says that “Oakview has a quality reputation for assisted living services, compassionate caring staff and being an excellent community partner which are all consistent with our own operating values and philosophy.” Founded more than a century ago, the non-profit Augustana Care fosters fullness of life for older adults by providing housing, health care and community-based services—and helps people live the lives that most inspire them.
