| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4 | PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS ------------------------------------ EPHRAIM MCDOWELL JAMES B. HAGGIN HOSPITAL (EMJBHH), LOCATED IN HARRODSBURG, KENTUCKY, IS A 25-BED CRITICAL ACCESS HOSPITAL OFFERING QUALITY HEALTH CARE AND LEVEL IV TRAUMA CERTIFIED EMERGENCY SERVICES. THE FACILITY IS JOINT COMMISSION ACCREDITED. EMJBHH OFFERS A VARIETY OF EPHRAIM MCDOWELL HEALTH SYSTEM SERVICES LOCALLY THROUGH THE FACILITY INCLUDING CARDIOPULMONARY, DIAGNOSTIC, DIETARY, SWING BEDS, LABORATORY, REHABILITATION, SURGICAL SERVICES, 24-HOUR EMERGENCY CARE, AND DURABLE MEDICAL EQUIPMENT. IN FISCAL YEAR 2018, OUTPATIENT REGISTRATIONS, INCLUDING EMERGENCY SERVICES WERE 28,405; THERE WERE 285 SURGICAL PROCEDURES, 485 ADMISSIONS (INCLUDING SWING), AND THE FACILITY RECORDED 2,858 TOTAL PATIENT DAYS (INCLUDING OBSERVATION AND SWING). COMMUNITY HEALTH EDUCATION - GENERAL ------------------------------------ HEALTH FAIRS - A REGISTERED NURSE (RN) MET WITH EACH CLIENT TO DEVELOP A WRITTEN PLAN TO DECREASE THEIR LIFESTYLE ASSOCIATED HEALTH RISK FACTORS. SERVICES WERE OFFERED AT 2 SITES AT WASHINGTON AND MERCER COUNTIES WITH A FOCUS ON REACHING AT RISK AND VULNERABLE POPULATIONS. FORTY-ONE ADULTS WERE SERVED. OVER FIFTY-NINE PERCENT HAD A HOUSEHOLD INCOME BELOW $35,000; COMPARED TO THIRTY-EIGHT PERCENT IN 2017. IN CLIENTS SEEN, UNEMPLOYMENT INCREASED FROM 4% IN 2017 TO 7% IN FY 2018. FOR CONTEXT, IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT ONE OF THE SITES IS AN ADDICTION PROGRAM BUT THIS SITE WAS SCREENED BOTH YEARS. THIRTY-SIX PERCENT OF CLIENTS WERE RETIRED, UP THREE PERCENT FROM THE PRECEDING YEAR. IN FY 2018, TWENTY-NINE PERCENT REPORTED HAVING NO PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER (PCP) COMPARED WITH FY 2017 WHEN TWENTY-FOUR PERCENT REPORTED NOT HAVING A PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER. REFERRAL OPTIONS WERE PROVIDED, INCLUDING HOPE CLINIC, REDUCED FEE PROGRAM, AND A PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER LISTING FOR THE REGION. THE DECREASE IN THOSE LACKING A PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER MAY BE DUE TO THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT AND THE TREATMENT CENTER'S EFFORTS TO ASSIST CLIENTS IN OBTAINING CARE. FIVE PERCENT OF CLIENTS SERVED WERE AFRICAN AMERICAN, NINETY-FIVE CAUCASIAN DURING FY 2018, COMPARED TO NINE PERCENT AFRICAN AMERICAN, EIGHTY-NINE PERCENT CAUCASIAN, AND TWO PERCENT HISPANIC DURING FY 2017. THE AFRICAN AMERICAN AND HISPANIC POPULATION REPRESENTS A HIGH RISK GROUP DUE TO POVERTY, DIABETES, HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE, HIGH BODY MASS INDEX AND OTHER FACTORS, AND WAS A FOCUS FOR SERVICES. THE ETHNICITY PERCENTAGES ARE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE REGIONAL DEMOGRAPHICS. SCREENING TEST RESULTS SHOWED THAT 58% WERE OUT OF NORMAL RANGE, COMPARED TO 50% IN FY 2017. FIFTEEN PERCENT OF PARTICIPANTS WITH ABNORMAL TEST RESULTS WERE REFERRED TO A PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER FOR FOLLOW-UP CARE COMPARED TO TWENTY PERCENT IN FY 2017. FORTY-FOUR PERCENT OF CLIENTS WERE FEMALE; FIFTY-SIX PERCENT WERE MALE IN FY 2018 COMPARED TO FIFTY-ONE PERCENT FEMALE AND FORTY-NINE PERCENT MALE IN FY 2017. THIS REPRESENTS AN INCREASE IN MALE CLIENTS SEEKING PREVENTATIVE CARE WHICH PROBABLY REFLECTS THE POPULATION OF THE ADDICTION TREATMENT FACILITY. A TOTAL OF FORTY-ONE INDIVIDUALS WERE SEEN IN FY 2018 COMPARED TO FORTY-FIVE INDIVIDUALS IN FY 2017. STAFF AND DEPARTMENT REDUCTIONS MAY HAVE BEEN A CONTRIBUTING FACTOR TO THE REDUCTION. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT SCREENINGS DURING THE SPRING OF 2018 WERE CANCELLED DUE TO BUDGET CONSTRAINTS. THE CONCLUSION IS THAT HIGH RISK INDIVIDUALS CONTINUED TO BE SERVED BY THE SCREENING PROGRAMS IN SPITE OF THE DECLINE IN NUMBERS. COMMUNITY HEALTH EDUCATION - SUPPORT GROUP ------------------------------------------ CLIENTS AT SCREENINGS WERE REFERRED TO HERITAGE HOSPICE FOR GRIEF COUNSELING, TO THE MONTHLY ALZHEIMER'S SUPPORT GROUP, AND TO THE DIABETES SUPPORT GROUP THAT MEETS AT THE MCDOWELL WELLNESS CENTER ALL BASED IN BOYLE COUNTY. TOBACCO CESSATION AND SOME NUTRITION COUNSELING ARE ALSO AVAILABLE THROUGH THE LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS. Community-Based Clinical Services Health Screenings ------------------------------------------------------ Health fairs were conducted in Mercer and Washington Counties in collaboration with the health departments, county extension offices, and churches. Services offered were based upon the 2017 CHNA community feedback and implementation plan that was approved by the EMJBHH governing board and the Ephraim McDowell Health (EMH) governing board. Services included cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors reduction (both stroke and heart attack). CVD risk screenings included cholesterol, glucose, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, tobacco use, family history, pulse regularity, activity intensity, risk score card, and consultation with an RN to develop goal(s) for health risk reduction. Early detection/prevention of cancer includes tobacco use cessation referrals, and distribution of colorectal cancer screening kits. Blood Pressure Screening ------------------------- During FY 2018, 88 percent of 41 blood pressure assessments compared to FY 2017, 75 percent of 45 blood pressure assessments in Mercer and Washington Counties exceeded the recommended range as established by the American Heart Association (AHA). This is a 13% increase from FY 2017 to FY 2018. Dietary information was provided. Instructions for monitoring and recording blood pressure, and the significance of blood pressure control in the prevention of heart attack and stroke were key elements in client education for those with pre-hypertension and Stage I Hypertension. Stage II Hypertension and above clients were referred for primary care follow-up and evaluation. Cancer Colorectal Screening -------------------------------- Thirty-four colorectal cancer screening kits were distributed through screenings, clinics, and the hospital. Twenty two were returned for interpretation and four of the twenty two were positive for occult blood. These individuals were referred to their primary care providers for further testing and the PCP was notified of the individuals results. This project was funded by the Ephraim McDowell Health Care Foundation (EMHCF). Cancer Skin Screening ---------------------- In FY 2018 there was not a skin cancer screening offered in Mercer and Washington Counties due to the lack of a community partner and limited licensed independent practitioner coverage. Cholesterol Testing ---------------------- In FY 2018, thirty-nine percent of 41 individuals compared to FY 2017, twenty-seven percent of 45 (an increase of 12%) total cholesterol tests exceeded the recommended range as established by the American Heart Association (AHA). This is an increasing trend consistent with the state and national trends. Of the lipid panel for both years, the LDL was the most elevated. Diabetes Screening -------------------- In 2018, twelve percent or 41 individuals total blood sugar (glucose) tests compared to 20 percent of 45 total blood sugar (glucose) tests in FY 2017 exceeded the recommended range as established by the American Diabetic Association (ADA). In FY 2016 an A1C machine was provided by the Ephraim McDowell Health Care Foundation and A1C testing was implemented at the screening sites for those who met the following high risk criteria: Known diabetic or pre-diabetic Fasting Blood Sugar above 111 with unknown diagnosis Extended family member with diagnosis and not done before Has not had A1C taken within the last 3 months Using these criteria, ten individuals were screened in FY 2018 and 7 in FY 2017, resulting in 40% and 71% of those individuals having abnormal A1C results. Diet and lifestyle changes were a significant part of the education provided to try to reduce these numbers, which reflect the growing trend nationally. Nutrition/Obesity Screening ----------------------------- Eighty-seven percent of 41 adults screened for body mass index compared to seventy-one percent in FY 2017 exceeded the national health recommendations. (Two of 41 individuals were in the extreme obesity category and one in the obese category in FY 2018.) This also reflects the health trend in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Education was offered related to portion control and glycemic index for all clients exceeding the recommended range. Referral to a dietitian, county health department nutrition classes or primary care provider was made for those in the high risk group due to the relationship between obesity and some forms of cancer, diabetes, mobility issues, GERD, heart attack and stroke. |
| PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS (CONT) | Stroke Screening ----------------- Stroke screenings was provided at the Addiction Treatment facility and Mercer County Health Department using The American Stroke Association Scorecard to record the clients risk factors as high (red), medium (yellow) or low (green) for purposes of education and goal setting to reduce modifiable lifestyle related CVD risk factors. Individuals with three or more risk factors in the high risk range were referred for PCP follow-up. Eighteen percent of individuals fell within the red category, or high risk, for having a stroke during the FY 2018 screenings compared to nine percent in FY 2017. The service area is the heart of the stroke belt. The sites provided a variation in rural versus town communities and varying areas of the two counties. Community-Based Clinical Services- Immunizations -------------------------------------------------------- Thirty flu shots were administered to individuals from the addiction facility during screening events and none were given at the Health Department due to respect for their immunization program. However, flu clinics were held in area churches and seventy-seven additional flu vaccines were administered for a total of 107 in Washington and Mercer counties during FY 2018. This compares to a total of 146 flu shots given in FY 2017. Financial Donations for the Community Cost of Fund Raising ------------------------------------------------------------------- Projects in this category included the Rotary pancake breakfast fund raiser. EMJBHH staff worked the event to assist in meeting identified community needs. Financial Donations for the Community-In-Kind Medical Support --------------- Area residents were served through medical support services at the Pioneer Days event in Mercer County. Services included blood pressure checks and first aid services. EMJBHH personnel helped plan, set up and provide health services at the event. EMJBHH participates and provides regular meeting space for the Weight Watchers program in our community. Senior leaders participate in the KODA fundraiser/awareness through education to our community. Personnel/Administrative Support ------------------------------------ EMJBHH leaders served as team captains for the American Cancer Society Relay for Life in Mercer County. This is the major fund-raiser for the American Cancer Association. EMJBHH Leaders and Associates participated in the Day of Caring and Day of Action to improve our community through service projects through the Heart of Kentucky United Way. EMJBHH Leaders and Associates participated in the Salvation Army (TSA) kettle drive to provide food and necessities for those in need in the community. EMJBHH participates in the Southern Kentucky AHEC (Area Health Education Center) Future Docs Program. This program gives a boost to pre-med students in the region to learn more about the medical school application process, practice interview skills, interact with medical students and physicians. EMJBHH leaders hold both membership and leadership positions within various service organizations in the community, role modeling good citizenship. Community-Building Activities Community Health Improvement Advocacy ------------------------------------- Coalition building activities included working with Mercer County Youth Leadership; service on Rotary; Heart of Kentucky United Way; and American Cancer Relay for Life. Ephraim McDowell James B. Haggin Hospital was part of a very successful HKUW fund raising campaign within the Ephraim McDowell Health Care System. Associates were also engaged in the Day of Action. Staff served on committees, teams, and contributed to make this a project for their community and those they serve a success. In addition to maintaining meeting participation in the Harrodsburg Rotary Club, staff members engaged in fundraisers, and exemplified the Rotary motto of service above self in their leadership role within the community. The American Cancer Society strives to provide education to the public regarding cancer and raise funds for research surrounding cure and treatment. EMJBHH staff participated at all levelscommittee meetings, team captains, event participation and fund-raising. EMJBHH participated in an area wide active shooter drill at Burgin Independent Schools with multiple agencies participating, as well as a tour bus accident drill with multiple agencies participating. Workforce Development ------------------------ Senior leaders participated in the Mercer County Youth Leadership Program. Leaders and staff hosted Mercer County Schools and Burgin Independent Schools freshman classes, where they toured the hospital and learned about different career opportunities in healthcare. Haggin leaders and staff provided workforce testing for Corning, Inc., which includes pulmonary function testing and TB skin testing. Community Support ---------------------- Haggin leaders and staff rang the bell for the Salvation Army (TSA) during the Christmas Holiday Season; thereby assisting TSA in attaining their goal. The aim was to feed the hungry and provide Christmas for needy families. TSAs pledge is to do the most good with contributions. EMJBHH leaders serve on the Mercer County Community Endowment Committee that relies on the Citizens of Mercer County as its primary funding source to support community efforts. Haggin staff planned, organized and participated in the annual July 4 food drive which provides food for the Christian Life Center located in Harrodsburg. This food drive typically provides enough food to restock the Center for the remainder of the summer season, to help those in need in the community. Haggin leaders and staff participate in the Mercer County Backpack Program. This is a Mercer County Schools program which provides food items that are sent home with children weekly through the backpack service. Haggin leaders and staff provided the annual Bicycle Safety Program at the Mercer County Public Library. This program provides bicycle safety information and helmets to each child in attendance. There were 30 children in attendance and 22 bicycles were given away. Unassigned Program ------------------ Additional community involvement that enhanced the lives of the citizens of Mercer County and the surrounding counties included involvement in lay health/faith community nursing ministries within the congregations. Full congregational impact was generated by leadership positions within the various church committees. Services provided included, but were not limited to, serving on boards/committees, teaching, meal preparation, music and worship leadership, choir participation and home visits/calls. The Journal of Christian Nursing reports that Christian faith and practice supports better mental, physical and spiritual health (March, 2013). Community involvement in childrens programs through the area churches resulted in over 1,000 children being served. |
