growing stronger... together A Letter from Omar Atassi, M.D. It is my privilege to share the Theda Clark Medical Center (TCMC) Foundation 2011 Report to the Community. The report is a great way to look back and realize how much we’ve accomplished over the last year with the help of your contributions. Whether we’re planting the seeds for long-term success or providing support for smaller individual projects, everything we do plays a role in the exceptional care at Theda Clark. I also want to thank you for your generosity to the Hospital, and the wonderful charitable spirit I have witnessed during my tenure as President of the Theda Clark Medical Center Foundation Board of Directors. Community support provides the nourishment necessary for the Hospital to develop and mature. We grow stronger together. With warm personal regards, Omar Atassi, M.D. A Letter from Wyon Wiegratz As I begin my term as president of the Theda Clark Medical Center (TCMC) Foundation Board of Directors, I feel both proud of our history and excited for our future. With special thanks to Dr. Omar Atassi and all those who have led the Foundation before him, we are a healthy and vibrant Hospital that provides care on par with national Wyon Wiegratz programs. Yet, we do it with the compassion and neighborly work ethic our region is known for. Financial support from donors like you makes it possible for us to deliver exceptional healthcare and extraordinary value each step of the way. Theda Clark Medical Center has such a long and proud history. Our strong roots in the community seem to grow deeper and reach farther with each passing year. I look forward to cultivating a prosperous future together.

Your Gift in Action ~ Role Models for Care ThedaCare has taken a national leadership role to develop a better way to care for patients in the hospital setting. It’s called Collaborative Care. In this model of care, the patient, his or her family, and the entire clinical care team work together to create a treatment plan designed uniquely for each patient. In fact, the physician, nurse, and pharmacist are all present at the patient’s bedside in order for information to be given and received in a group discussion, rather than a series of one-on-one conversations or shared charting notes. This model frequently puts the nurse in a lead role for communication since nurses often have the most contact and, therefore, the strongest relationship with each patient. Such an ambitious effort requires preparation and training. Beginning with the 2011 graduate nurses, ThedaCare’s Learning Center for Collaborative Care will provide an evidence-based process for nursing orientation. It’s an innovative model where new nurses and clinical staff members receive focused training from clinical experts, guided by an advanced practice Learning Chair. Theda Clark Medical Center Foundation is proud to support the new Collaborative Care Learning Center through a $238,000 grant paid out over the next three years. In addition to funding the Learning Chair position, the grant will help expand the unit and convert the facility into a classroom environment with proper equipment and upgrades to patient rooms, including live stream video where students can watch the Collaborative Care model in action without intruding on patient space. This professional development will strengthen the care delivered for every patient we serve.
