Logan Regional Medical Center, located in Logan, West Virginia, is crucial to keeping residents in this small community healthy from the moment they are born. At a time when maternal care is disappearing in rural areas, it has three labor suites and a nine-bed nursery. LRMC, along with other rural hospitals across the country, is a cornerstone of the community it serves. Faced with unique challenges, however, these hospitals are dwindling in number -- and proposals by some in Congress threaten to lower their numbers even more. Learn more about the crucial impact of these hospitals, and proposals to save them, from the Federation of American Hospitals: https://buff.ly/3MLyAMq

If you are lucky enough to be a part of a rural community that still has a hospital, and if you are particularly lucky enough to have that hospital still deliver babies, take a moment to consider what it would be like if that hospital did not exist, or if it no longer delivered babies. How much longer would it take for you or your family member to receive care in a crisis? How much further will an expectant mother need to travel for maternity care and delivery? Then, take a moment to imagine the economic impact of the closure of that hospital, on the overall community. If you are not involved in advocating to keep care local, please consider how you might begin to consider it. #ruralhealthcare #ruralcommunities

Researchers have identified that 32% of individuals over age 70 and approximately 50% of those over age 80 experience a loss of physical function (activities of daily living) during hospitalization. Implementing specific geriatric models of care can improve hospitalization-associated outcomes, such as: ⤴ Increased likelihood of discharge home instead of to a facility ⬇ Decreased incidence of delirium ⬇ Decreased mortality risk ↘ Shortened hospital length of stay (LOS) ↘ Lower or equal costs of hospital care Earlier patient mobilization programs in hospitals, such as QCH's "Get Moving Team," decrease the risk of functional decline during hospitalization and significantly reduce hospital care costs in Ontario. Specialized geriatric nursing resources that provide clinical expertise in our Emergency Department team will deliver person-centered, high-quality care and provide faster access to the necessary services within hours of hospitalization for our patients living with dementia. The caregivers of our most vulnerable patients deserve early navigation support that is practical and useful in our Emergency Department. QCH is very well-known for it's innovative lens on geriatric and dementia care. Highlighting initiatives that benefit our older adults is so crucial to ensuring they become sustainable, receive permanent funding, and can be replicated across hospitals in Ontario. The work always continues in improving the lives of our older adults in acute care hospitals. #innovationinhealthcare #personcenteredcare #geriatrics #hospital
Last November, Marion Wright fractured her pelvis in multiple places after falling in her home. When she arrived at QCH, she was completely immobilized and began to wonder what her future would hold. That changed after a few days when members of the QCH Get Moving team began working with her. The program has helped over 1,280 patients get home faster, through early and frequent functional mobility training. Some patients are leaving the hospital in better condition than when they arrived. Marion credits the team for recovering as well as she did and believes she wouldn’t still be living independently without the support of the program.

𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐫 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐞: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐇𝐨𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 People visit hospitals to receive care for injuries or diseases or undergo needed medical procedures and surgeries. Hospitals are open 24/7 every day of the year to provide essential and specialized health services to our communities. Of course, a hospital’s reach and impact extend beyond its walls and into the surrounding neighborhoods and communities. Each community may have different needs, and those needs can change. Whether providing transportation for patients to and from an appointment or hospital stay, offering education and employment opportunities, providing affordable housing — and so much more — all hospitals and health systems provide innumerable benefits to their communities.
