Hear from Joseph, Imaging Manager, on why he decided to join our team at Good Samaritan Medical Center in Lafayette, CO.
St. Mary's Medical Center in Grand Junction, CO, now part of Intermountain Health, recently welcomed a new team of security officers to the hospital to help maintain a safe and healing environment for patients, visitors, and staff. But this group of officers looks slightly different than what patients and caregivers are used to. They have four legs and enjoy a good belly rub. The hospital now employs three full-time and two part-time K-9 teams which include a dog and a handler. The dogs and their handlers undergo formal training for months before starting at the hospital. Unlike traditional police dogs, in addition to security, they also are trained to be approachable and provide comfort to patients and staff. Healthcare settings can be a stressful environment, and workers across the country are increasingly seeing patients and visitors act out. As a result, healthcare workers are at an increased risk of experiencing verbal threats or physical attacks. St. May’s K-9 team provides a visual deterrent to these behaviors and can help deescalate potential harmful situations, and according to Bourgeois, since implementing the K-9 program St. Mary’s has seen a reduction in workplace violence injuries by 50%.

Intermountain Health’s acquisition of Advent Home Health, a leading home health agency in southern Nevada, has been finalized. Advent Home Health is now officially part of Intermountain and operating as Intermountain Health Homecare. “The addition of Advent Home Health underscores our commitment to increasing access to home care for a greater number of individuals – and especially at-risk patients – in southern Nevada,” said Ryan Christensen, Region Vice President of Medical Group Operations for Intermountain Health. “This focus on providing care to patients in the comfort of their own home, particularly those who may have recently been discharged from the hospital or those with long-term health conditions, helps contribute to improved outcomes, fewer hospital readmissions, and continuity of care.” Patients will benefit from the strength of a multi-specialty, integrated network for providers sharing knowledge and best practices to achieve the very best outcomes. They will continue to receive the same level of personalized care they have come to expect from both organizations.
