Return Reference Explanation
FORM 990, PART I, LINE 1 AND PART III, LINE 1 ORGANIZATION'S MISSION COVENANT HEALTH SYSTEM IS COMMITTED TO EXTENDING THE CHRISTIAN MINISTRY BY CARING FOR THE WHOLE PERSON-BODY, MIND AND SPIRIT, AND BY WORKING WITH OTHERS TO IMPROVE HEALTH AND QUALITY OF LIFE IN OUR COMMUNITIES.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A REALIZING OUR MISSION COVENANT HEALTH SYSTEM (COVENANT HEALTH/COVENANT HEALTH LUBBOCK/CH) HAS BEEN MEETING THE HEALTH AND QUALITY OF LIFE NEEDS OF THE LOCAL COMMUNITY FOR OVER 15 YEARS. SERVING THE COMMUNITIES OF WEST TEXAS AND EASTERN NEW MEXICO, COVENANT HEALTH LUBBOCK INCLUDES COVENANT MEDICAL CENTER, COVENANT CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, COVENANT SPECIALTY HOSPITAL, AND COVENANT MEDICAL GROUP. COVENANT HEALTH PROVIDES QUALITY CARE IN THE AREAS OF CARDIAC SERVICES, MOBILE MAMMOGRAPHY, MOBILE DENTAL, OUTPATIENT CANCER TREATMENT, PRIMARY CARE, WOMEN'S HEALTH AND CHILDREN'S HEALTH. WITH OVER 4,500 EMPLOYEES COMMITTED TO REALIZING THE MISSION, COVENANT HEALTH IS ONE OF THE LARGEST EMPLOYERS IN THE WEST TEXAS REGION. AS A MEMBER OF THE ST. JOSEPH HEALTH SYSTEM, COVENANT HEALTH IS COMMITTED TO EXTEND THE HEALING MINISTRY OF JESUS IN THE TRADITION OF THE SISTERS OF ST. JOSEPH OF ORANGE. THIS MISSION HAS GUIDED OUR CATHOLIC HEALTHCARE MINISTRY SINCE THE OPENING OF OUR FIRST HOSPITAL IN EUREKA, CALIFORNIA NEARLY 100 YEARS AGO. THE SISTERS OF ST. JOSEPH OF ORANGE TRACE THEIR ROOTS BACK TO 17TH CENTURY FRANCE AND THE UNIQUE VISION OF A JESUIT PRIEST NAMED JEAN-PIERRE MEDAILLE. HE SOUGHT TO ORGANIZE AN ORDER OF RELIGIOUS WOMEN WHO, RATHER THAN REMAINING SAFELY CLOISTERED IN A CONVENT, VENTURED OUT INTO THE COMMUNITY TO SEEK OUT "THE DEAR NEIGHBORS" AND MINISTER TO THEIR NEEDS. THE CONGREGATION MANAGED TO SURVIVE THE TURBULENCE OF THE FRENCH REVOLUTION AND EVENTUALLY EXPANDED, NOT ONLY THROUGHOUT FRANCE, BUT THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. IN 1912 A SMALL GROUP OF SISTERS OF ST. JOSEPH WENT TO EUREKA, CALIFORNIA, AT THE INVITATION OF THE LOCAL BISHOP, TO ESTABLISH A SCHOOL. A FEW YEARS LATER, THE GREAT INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC OF 1918 CAUSED THE SISTERS TO TEMPORARILY SET ASIDE THEIR EDUCATION EFFORTS TO CARE FOR THE ILL. THEY REALIZED IMMEDIATELY THAT THE SMALL COMMUNITY DESPERATELY NEEDED A HOSPITAL. THROUGH BOLD FAITH, FORESIGHT, AND FLEXIBILITY IN 1920, THE SISTERS OPENED THE 28-BED ST. JOSEPH HOSPITAL OF EUREKA, THE FIRST ST. JOSEPH HEALTH SYSTEM MINISTRY. THREE MISSION OUTCOMES STRATEGICALLY GUIDE OUR MINISTRY WORK COVENANT HEALTH IS COMMITTED TO THREE SYSTEMWIDE MISSION OUTCOMES: 1) SACRED ENCOUNTERS, 2) PERFECT CARE, AND 3) HEALTHIEST COMMUNITIES. 1) EVERY INTERACTION WILL BE EXPERIENCED AS A SACRED ENCOUNTER. THE GOAL OF SACRED ENCOUNTER HAS A DIRECT CONNECTION TO THE OVERALL MISSION. OUR VALUE OF DIGNITY CALLS FOR US TO RESPECT EACH PERSON AS AN INHERENTLY VALUABLE MEMBER OF THE HUMAN COMMUNITY AND AS A UNIQUE EXPRESSION OF LIFE. WE STRIVE TO DO THIS BY KEEPING AT THE FOREFRONT OF OUR MINDS THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE IMPACT WE CAN HAVE ON ONE ANOTHER WITH EVERY ACTION WE TAKE. AT COVENANT HEALTH WE EDUCATE OUR EMPLOYEES ON WHAT IS EXPECTED BEHAVIOR IN RELATION TO PATIENT CARE, CUSTOMER SERVICE AND TEAMWORK. EMPLOYEES ARE INTRODUCED TO THESE EXPECTATIONS AND TO THE GOAL TO MAKE EVERY ENCOUNTER SACRED AT NEW EMPLOYEE ORIENTATION. THESE CONCEPTS ARE ALSO INTEGRATED INTO EMPLOYEE'S 90 DAY AND ANNUAL EVALUATIONS. THIS IS REINFORCED THROUGHOUT THEIR EMPLOYMENT THROUGH BOTH OPTIONAL AND MANDATORY TRAINING, LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND OUR HR STANDARDS OF BEHAVIOR. SACRED PATIENT ENCOUNTERS ARE RECOGNIZED AT CH THROUGH HERO CARDS, EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH STORIES AND A VALUES IN ACTION RECOGNITION PROGRAM. LEADERS ARE SENT TO MISSION AND MENTORING WHICH IS A FORMATION PROGRAM LEAD BY SJHS. PATIENT AND STAFF SACRED STORIES ARE ALSO SHARED REGULARLY THROUGH WEEKLY MESSAGES FROM OUR CEO, VPMI AND PATIENT EXPERIENCE OFFICE. OUR SPIRITUAL CARE AND MISSION SERVICES STAFF STRIVE TO OFFER SUPPORT, COACHING AND MENTORING TO STAFF TO REINFORCE THE MISSION AND VALUES. COVENANT HEALTH HAS A NO ONE DIES ALONE PROGRAM IN WHICH STAFF VOLUNTEER TO SPEND TIME WITH PATIENTS WHO ARE EXPECTED TO DIE IN THE HOSPITAL AND HAVE NO FRIENDS OR FAMILY PRESENT. SCHWARTZ CENTER ROUNDS SESSIONS ARE HELD IN ORDER TO ALLOW CAREGIVERS TO REFLECT ON AND DISCUSS THE IMPACT OF COMPASSIONATE CARE. 2) ALL PATIENTS WILL RECEIVE PERFECT CARE. IT IS OUR ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND THE SMALLEST IMPERFECTIONS OF EACH PATIENT'S EXPERIENCE THAT DRIVES A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING AND ULTIMATELY A SUSTAINABLE APPROACH TO THE ACHIEVEMENT OF PERFECT CARE. AT COVENANT HEALTH WE EDUCATE OUR EMPLOYEES ON THE GOAL OF PERFECT CARE. EMPLOYEES ARE INTRODUCED TO THIS GOAL AT NEW EMPLOYEE ORIENTATION, NEW PHYSICIAN ORIENTATION, NURSING ORIENTATION, AND IN DEPARTMENT ORIENTATIONS. THIS GOAL IS ALSO INTEGRATED INTO EMPLOYEE'S 90 DAY AND ANNUAL EVALUATIONS. THIS IS REINFORCED THROUGHOUT THEIR EMPLOYMENT THROUGH MANDATORY TRAINING. IN ADDITION CH'S QUALITY DEPARTMENT CONTINUALLY STRIVES TO FORMALLY AND INFORMALLY EDUCATE STAFF ON PERFECT CARE EXPECTATIONS. QUALITY INDICATORS ARE TRACKED AND REPORTED TO EMT, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, PHYSICIAN MEETINGS, NURSING MEETINGS AND AT THE CLINICAL EXCELLENCE COMMITTEE. LEAN PROCESS IMPROVEMENT TACTICS ARE USED TO CONTINUALLY IMPROVE PROCESSES AND PERFORMANCE TO ENHANCE THE PATIENT EXPERIENCE AND LIMIT POTENTIAL IMPERFECTIONS IN PATIENT CARE. CME'S ARE OFFERED REGULARLY ON-SITE TO OUR PHYSICIANS AND STAFF. WITHIN DEPARTMENTS, UNITS AND SECTIONS SPECIFIC PROCESSES ARE CONSTANTLY MONITORED TO INSURE PATIENT SAFETY AND BEST CARE. TEAMSTEPPS TRAINING IS AVAILABLE TO ALL STAFF TO ENHANCE PERFORMANCE AND PATIENT SAFETY. 3) THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE WILL BE AMONG THE HEALTHIEST IN OUR NATION. WE SEEK TO DEVELOP COMMUNITY HEALTH INITIATIVES THAT IMPACT LONG-TERM HEALTH ACROSS THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY. COVENANT WILL PROVIDE FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO TEXAS TECH UNIVERSITY CENTER FOR PREVENTION AND RESILIENCY TO FUND COVENANT BODY MIND INITIATIVE WHICH IS A SCHOOL BASED WELLNESS AND PREVENTION PROGRAM. IT IS ALSO A LONGITUDINAL STUDY MEASURING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF A PREVENTION AND INTERVENTION PROGRAM THAT IMPACTS CHILDHOOD OBESITY. THOSE PERFORMING THE STUDY WILL PROVIDE THE CB COMMITTEE WITH QUARTERLY UPDATES ON STRATEGY AND MEASURES. COVENANT BODY MIND INITIATIVE PROGRAM EXPANSION - INCREASED SCHOOLS RECEIVING CBMI CURRICULUM FROM 34 IN 2013 TO 85 IN 2014. - INCREASED THE NUMBER OF SCHOOLS OFFERING THE SEMESTER COURSE, COMPREHENSIVE WELLNESS, FROM 11 IN 2013 TO 12 IN 2014. - INCREASED THE NUMBER OF COUNTIES IN TEXAS WITH SCHOOLS USING THE CBMI CURRICULUM FROM 21 TO 29. - DEVELOPMENT OF WELLNESS SPOTLIGHTS FOR 4TH AND 5TH GRADE. - TEXAS EDUCATION AGENCY APPROVAL OF COMPREHENSIVE WELLNESS 2. IT WILL BE READY FOR SCHOOLS IN THE FALL OF 2015. - CURRICULUM IS BEING UTILIZED BY THE LUBBOCK DREAM CENTER FOR SUMMER AND AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS. - CONFERENCE PRESENTATIONS HAVE RESULTED IN 8+ PARTICIPATING SCHOOLS AND GROUPS OUTSIDE OF TEXAS. COVENANT BODY MIND INITIATIVE RESEARCH OUTCOMES - OF THE STUDENTS IN THE RESEARCH COMPONENT OF THE CBMI PROGRAM IN 2013- 2014 ACADEMIC YEAR, A 3.8% INCREASE OF STUDENTS IN THE HEALTHY BODY MASS INDEX (BMI) PERCENTILE RANGE WAS SEEN. OVERALL, 61.7% OF THE STUDENTS ENDED THE SCHOOL YEAR EITHER IN A HEALTHY BMI PERCENTILE RANGE, OR WERE MOVING TOWARDS A HEALTHY RANGE BY AT LEAST 1 PERCENTILE POINT CHANGE. - IN RECENT ANALYSIS USING DATA FROM THE 2011-2012 ACADEMIC YEAR, OVERALL STABILITY WAS SHOWN WITHIN MEASURES THAT WOULD TYPICALLY EXHIBIT SIGNIFICANT FLUCTUATIONS WITHIN THIS ADOLESCENT POPULATION. THIS STABILITY WAS SHOWN WITH BODY SATISFACTION, WEIGHT, SELF-ESTEEM, RESOURCE AND VULNERABILITY INDICES, AND CONSTRUCTS OF COPING. - A SLIGHT INCREASE IN VULNERABILITY AND SLIGHT DECREASE IN RESOURCE INDEX SCORES INDICATES A POTENTIAL INCREASED AWARENESS OF RESILIENCY WITHIN THIS SAMPLE. IMPROVED AWARENESS OF THESE CONCEPTS PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY FOR DEVELOPMENT OF THESE RESILIENCY SKILLS THROUGH FURTHER DOSES OF THE CURRICULUM. - IMPROVEMENT WAS SEEN IN THE POSITIVE COGNITIVE RESTRUCTURING CONSTRUCT OF COPING, WHICH REFERS TO THE PARTICIPANT'S IMPROVEMENT IN THINKING ABOUT SITUATIONS IN A MORE OPTIMISTIC WAY. - THE "DO NO HARM" PHILOSOPHY CONTINUES TO BE DEMONSTRATED THROUGH THE DATA ANALYSIS. PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS PATIENT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM AND UN-REIMBURSED MEDICAID: OUR MISSION IS TO PROVIDE QUALITY CARE TO ALL OUR PATIENTS, REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY. WE BELIEVE THAT NO ONE SHOULD DELAY SEEKING NEEDED MEDICAL CARE BECAUSE THEY LACK HEALTH INSURANCE. THAT IS WHY COVENANT HEALTH LUBBOCK HAS A PATIENT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (FAP) THAT PROVIDES FREE OR DISCOUNTED SERVICES TO ELIGIBLE PATIENTS. IN FY14, THE PROGRAM PROVIDED $1,678,598 IN CHARITY CARE AT COVENANT HEALTH CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AND $26,527,680 IN CHARITY CARE AT COVENANT MEDICAL CENTER. IN ADDITION UN-REIMBURSED MEDICAID FOR COVENANT HEALTH CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL WAS $4,688,688 AND $69,347 AT COVENANT MEDICAL CENTER. ADDITIONALLY COVENANT HEALTH OPERATES THREE DIRECT COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROGRAMS, PROVIDES GRANTS/CONTRIBUTIONS TO MANY LOCAL CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS AND PROVIDES FUNDING AND SUPPORT TO TEXAS TECH UNIVERSITY FOR A CHILDHOOD OBESITY PROGRAM (CBMI).
