Beebe healthcareMore tHaN a HosPitaL Beebe medical center has changed its name to Beebe healthcare, reflecting the expansive community health system that it has become. “Beebe has been more than a stand-alone, acute-care hospital for many years,” says Jeffrey m. Fried, Fache, President and ceo of the now Beebe healthcare. “For decades, Beebe has provided outpatient services in many locations, besides the hospital in lewes. Beebe home health agency has provided care to people throughout southern Delaware since 1985. and our network of physicians serves patients in multiple locations. “today, we have seven convenient loca-tions throughout Sussex county where people can receive outpatient healthcare services, including our newest location in georgetown.” In focus groups that took place in 2012, participants made clear that the term “medical center” did not describe the scope of services and geographic locations that Beebe provides. to better communicate with consumers, the decision was made to update our name while remaining true to our heritage.

“changing our name is a major milestone in Beebe’s evolution,” says the honorable William Swain lee, chairman of the Beebe healthcare Board. “Beebe’s growth into a healthcare system has occurred for years as we’ve taken proactive steps to expand and serve the community. In 1916, Beebe was a two-room hospital. It became a medical cen-ter as it grew and offered more medical serv-ices. today, the name Beebe healthcare signi-fies a community health system that provides sophisticated medical care across many sites.”

sPeciaLizeD care as the population in southern Delaware has grown, Beebe has expanded its services and the breadth of specialized care. a major addition to our continuum of care was open-heart surgery and interventional cardiology, which began in 2007, and, more recently, we added electrophysiology to correct heart arrhythmias. today, most heart disease conditions can be treated locally at Beebe. our history of compassionate caring and advanced treatment for patients battling can-cer at the tunnell cancer center has earned respect and loyalty from our patients and their families. and the aging population has bene-

fited from award-winning orthopaedic serv-ices, including total hip and knee replace-ments and minimally invasive spinal surgery.

PartNeriNg WitH tHe coMMuNity Beebe healthcare remains an independent community health system with a vision of making Sussex county one of the healthiest counties in the nation. Beebe recognizes that it cannot achieve this goal on its own. Partnerships like the healthier Sussex county initiative with Bayhealth and nanticoke health Services have been created to help coordinate health promotion and education. the new outpatient services offered in millsboro are a collaboration with mid-atlantic Family Practice, offering a convenient site for people needing primary care, after hours walk-in care, lab, and imaging. “Physical access to care is an important first step that we have worked hard to achieve,” mr. Fried says. “the next frontier in serving patients is true coordination with physicians and other providers working together to ensure the patient receives the right care in the right place at the right time. Beebe healthcare and its staff of physicians are prepared to be that innovative leader.”

2008

hudson Wingthe hospital’s rollins Wing doubles the size of the emergency Department from 18 to 36 beds, relocates and expands the critical care unit (from 12 to 20 beds) above the emergency Department, and adds a 42-bed Medical-surgical unit above the ccu.

People helping Our Community

on a beautiful morning in august, Doris hensler, rn, one of a dozen community outreach nurses with Beebe healthcare’s Population health Department, prepared tables at the millsboro 7th Day adventist church for the health fair that was to start. She made sure that the health screening equipment was calibrated and ready to go. People who live near the little country church, surrounded by woods and farm fields, came to be screened for the early signs of heart disease, diabetes, and osteoporosis.

Doris, flanked by nurses Kathy cooper, rn, michelle Farlow, rn, and Jerry mclamb, rn, warmly greeted people as they sat down to have their blood pressure taken, their fingers pricked, and the density of their heel bones measured.

reacHiNg out to iMProve HeaLtH iN sussex couNty this scenario occurs year-round, again and again, throughout Sussex county. these local health fairs take place in churches, schools, parks, and community centers. often, other organizations participate, joining the Beebe outreach team. last December 1, for example, there was a health fair at Betel United

methodist church in georgetown, where Beebe nurses were joined by representatives of the Delaware association of hispanic nurses, Delaware hospice, Delaware eye Institute, la red, Beebe diabetic educators, and nurses from Beebe healthcare’s tunnell cancer center, who provide education and

pressure, one-third are obese, and 12 percent have diabetes. cancer rates also are high. “So many factors impact our health, such as housing, transportation, education, and socioeconomic status,” Williams says. “Population health is most effective when it is done in partnership with other community-based organizations.” In recent years, Beebe healthcare has been able to provide the hispanic community by collaborating with Pastor rene Knight-Peguero and his wife gilda nieves-Knight of the Betel United methodist church in georgetown. this collaboration has led to providing free health screenings at health fairs, health information, and methods to access healthcare when needed. “Beebe helps us to provide the medical needs of our community,” says gilda. “many of the people do not have health insurance or access to a doctor.” Pastor Knight and gilda came to Sussex county in 1995 as missionaries with the Dover District United methodist church to serve a growing hispanic population in Sussex county. Since 1995, they have continued to

serve this population through their affiliation with Betel. In another collaboration, Beebe healthcare, under the auspices of the healthier Sussex county initiative, has been working with habitat for humanity to help people own their own homes. this year Beebe has been involved with the construction of two homes. “Within the auspices of healthier Sussex county, we are working to keep people in Sussex county healthier through addressing disparities in healthcare and education, and working with our community members to help engage them in making healthier life-style choices,” says Jeffrey m. Fried, President and ceo of Beebe healthcare. “certainly, a healthy environment in which to live is critical to maintaining good health. helping habitat for humanity to build homes for Sussex county residents also provides an opportunity for the staff of the three hospitals to work together in a project that supports the healthier Sussex county initiative.” For more information visit our website at healthiersussexcounty.com.

screening for specific cancers. all of the orga-nizations collaborated to bring a broad range of services to the georgetown community. “We want to find illnesses early in their course,” says megan Williams, FnP, Director of Beebe healthcare’s Population health Department. “We know that diagnosing and treating a disease in its early stages leads to better outcomes and a higher quality of life.” these free screenings target heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, and cancers of the breast and prostate, and sometimes the skin. they also include plenty of free educational materials. “We focus on these chronic health condi-tions because they are common and have the greatest impact on the quality of life for peo-ple in Sussex county,” megan says, explaining that the outreach efforts are intended to assist people who are not getting the healthcare they may need, either because they are not insured or because they have limited access or information.

iMProviNg access to care Beebe healthcare, in a collaborative effort with other healthcare systems in Sussex county, has recently completed a community health needs assessment to use as a basis to develop strategies to improve the health of the southern Delaware population. It won’t be an easy task. In Sussex county, more than one-third of the population have high blood

carlton Savage feels much better these days, though he misses pizza and fried chick-en. their high content of fat and salt can aggravate his heart disease and send him back to the hospital. “I didn’t know they were so bad for me,” says the Sussex county native and lewes resi-dent. “But I feel so much better without them.” today, carlton, 57, and his wife cathy are learning how to manage his diabetes and chronic heart failure with the help of a nurse from Beebe home health agency and its inno-vative Philips telehealth monitoring system. carlton weighs himself each morning at home. he uses a small pulse oximeter to check how much oxygen is in his blood and another device to measure his blood pressure and heart rate. he then uses the Philips telehealth monitoring system to transmit the informa-tion via telephone to Beebe home health agency. the home health team of nurses monitors these vital signs and will contact carlton’s physician immediately if it appears his health is worsening or if changes need to be made to his disease management regimen. the agency also sends weekly updates to the physician. “the machine catches you cheating, too,” carlton says. “If I have a pretzel or ice cream before I go to bed, it shows up on the machine the next morning.” he adds with a smile, “I can’t eat anything that tastes good.”

recogNiziNg tHe WarNiNg sigNs Beebe home health has incorporated telehealth as a tool into the nurse-driven pro-gram to help patients stay in their homes as they learn how to manage their own illnesses. “We use it for patients who have coPD, pneumonia, unstable blood pressure, or who have had a heart attack or who have had

heart surgery,” says Dana Warrington, rn, the nurse manager. “Patients are referred into the program by either the hospital or a physician. It is not for everyone.” carlton was referred to the program after suffering out-of-control diabetes and serious heart failure that damaged his kidneys. he was taken to the medical center in lewes, where he stayed for 15 days before he was well enough to be discharged. “I was so sick,” he recalls. “there were days I wasn’t with it at all.” Dana explains that the telehealth technol-ogy is a teaching tool that helps patients learn how to recognize the warning signs of a wors-ening chronic illness, so that eventually the patient can do it without the technology. “It helps the patient manage his or her own illness and to know when it is important to contact the doctor.”

PreveNtiNg MeDicaL eMergeNcies miriam Kaiser, rn, BSn, cDe, a Beebe home health nurse and certified diabetic edu-cator, visits the Savages regularly. She has taught them how to use the telehealth moni-toring system, as well as how to manage heart failure and diabetes. Part of her education plan includes teaching the relationship

between food and health, and how eating too much sugar, fat, and salt can adversely affect diabetes and heart failure. “miriam has taught me how to read labels when I go to the supermarket,” cathy says. “It’s like going back to school.” miriam also taught the Savages how to regularly check carlton’s blood glucose levels to control his diabetes, which is a risk factor for heart disease. “I would not feel as good today if it were not for that machine and for miriam,” says carlton. cathy agrees. “miriam has taught us so much. She is like a security blanket.” Studies have shown that telehealth assists patients with chronic illnesses to successfully transition from the hospital experience to living at home and managing their own ill-nesses. For example, a tufts–new england medical Study has shown a 72 percent reduc-tion in patients with heart failure being re-admitted into the hospital when they have used telehealth as part of their disease management program. Beebe home health agency has about 20 patients at any one time on the telehealth sys-tem, which is free to the patient. the agency serves patients throughout southern Delaware, and it has received the highest patient satis-faction scores in Delaware, according to the U.S. government rating system.


day or night, weekday or weekend, Beebe healthcare has been well within that standard for several years. this success reflects the mul-tidisciplinary approach that includes represen-tatives of cardiac Services, the emergency Department, and the Sussex county emS working closely together. “the team follows national protocols of quality and safety,” says ehtasham Qureshi, mD, Director of Interventional cardiology and one of three Beebe healthcare interventional cardiologists. “We strive for 100 percent com-pliance with all guidelines.” to qualify for the award, Beebe healthcare also had to adhere to additional best practice patient care guidelines for more than a year. those guidelines include the use of aggressive risk-reduction therapies such as cholesterol-lowering drugs, aspirin, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ace) inhibitors, and beta-blockers. “our cardiac Surgery program is essential to our ability to provide this care to our patients,” Dr. Qureshi adds. In recent months, the Beebe healthcare team treated more than 50 patients suffering from a StemI heart attack. last year, more

than 1,300 heart patients received diagnostic catheterizations. of those, nearly 400 had stent procedures to open blocked cardiac arteries and about 130 patients needed open-heart surgery.

exceptional Care for the Most Severe Form of heart attackBeebe healthcare, earlier this year, received the american heart association’s mission: lifeline® Silver Quality achievement award for implementing an exceptional standard of care for heart attack patients. the recognition refers specifically to the St-segment elevation myocardial infarction (StemI), the most severe form of a heart attack. In this medical emergency, a blood clot completely blocks an artery to the heart. It is critical to immediately restore blood flow by opening the blocked vessel or by giving clot-busting medication, to prevent death, accord-ing to the aha. “We are proud and honored to receive this recognition,” says lynn amey, rn, executive Director of cardiac and vascular Services at Beebe healthcare. “this award acknowledges the high standard of care that our heart patients receive. It also recognizes the com-mitment of not only the interventional cardiac care team, but also those in the emergency Department and the Sussex county emer-gency medical Services team who often are the first people to give patient care in the event of a heart attack.” Beebe healthcare, which implemented its Interventional cardiology and cardiac Surgery program in 2007, has worked tirelessly to make sure that patients suffering heart attacks

receive the highest standards of care. For the best patient out-comes, national stan-dards require that the blood clot is removed and the blood flow is restored to the heart within 90 minutes of the patient’s arrival at the hospital. Whether

Most heart problems can be treated at Beebe. Here, a patient’s cardiac arteries are examined during a cardiac catheterization prior to placing a stent.

getting Back to the Life You Loveover the past several years, Beebe surgeons and administrators have committed to a phi-losophy of instituting minimally invasive surgi-cal techniques when medically appropriate to offer the most advanced care for the surgical patient. these techniques can produce less pain, less bleeding, and a faster return for the patient to his or her daily life. the cost sav-ings—to patients and employers—has helped us to make responsible economic decisions in a time of cost-benefit importance. Pictured here is a recent laparoscopic hysterectomy that was performed in an operating room at the medical center in lewes with the use of our new image-guided

expanded ear, nose, and throat ServicesBeebe healthcare has expanded its ear, nose, and throat specialty services with the arrival of Board certified oto-laryngologist Justin lee elder, Do, who joined the Beebe healthcare medical Staff this year. the two other otolaryngolo-gists on the Beebe healthcare medical Staff are nicholas Berg, mD, with offices in milford, and Paul howard, mD, with offices in lewes. Dr. elder’s office suite is in the medical arts Building at Beebe healthcare–rehoboth Beach, which he is sharing with dermatologist Daniel cuozzo, Do. Dr. elder brings expertise not only in diagnosing and treating diseases and disorders of the ear, nose, and throat, but also in facial plastic surgery.

“I especially am looking forward to work-ing with Dr. cuozzo, who performs mohs sur-gery,” Dr. elder says. “I am especially interested in reconstructive surgery.” mohs is a specialized surgical technique used for skin cancer. the focus of the proce-dure is to remove the cancer while protecting healthy tissue. Following the mohs procedure, Dr. elder will close the defect on the same day. the combination of mohs and facial plastic surgery in one combined office allows for the management of routine and complex skin cancer of the face that is convenient for patients. Besides a subspecialty in facial plastic sur-gery, Dr. elder also performs endoscopic sinus surgery, an image-guided surgery to treat such disorders as nasal polyps, septal devia-tions, and chronic sinus problems. Image guidance (intraoperative navigation) allows ct scans to be used as a “road map” during surgery to increase patient safety. this is provided by the use of the newly acquired medtronic Fusion System. Dr. elder also per-forms in-office minimally invasive procedures such as balloon sinuplasty. as with other minimally invasive surgical procedures, patients recuperate faster to return to their normal lives.

Dr. elder earned his Doctor of osteopathy from the Philadelphia college of osteopathic medicine. he completed an internship and residency in otolaryngology/Facial Plastic Surgery at Saint Barnabas medical center in livingston, new Jersey. he is a member of the american academy of Facial Plastic and reconstructive Surgery; the american academy of otolaryngology–head and neck Surgery; the american osteopathic colleges of ophthalmology & otolaryngology–head and neck Surgery; and the american osteopathic association. Dr. elder, a member of the Beebe Physician network, can be reached at (302) 645-4801.

WHat is aN otoLaryNgoLogist? an otolaryngologist diagnoses and treats diseases and disorders of the ear, nose, and throat; hence, the more common name of “ear, nose, and throat physician.” this physician also treats disorders and diseases related to the head and neck, such as those affecting the mouth, throat, and sinuses. otolaryngologists often have subspecialties that can include facial plastic and reconstruc-tive surgery.

Beebe honor roll of Donors (7/1/2012–6/30/2013)

Beebe medical Foundation was established in 1989 with the sole mission to raise philanthropic support for Beebe healthcare. through the efforts of the Foundation more than $42 million has been raised to support new construction and renovation of medical facilities, new and ongoing medical programs, and to establish an endowment fund to ensure Beebe will always be available for this community.

as an independent, not-for-profit organization, Beebe healthcare relies on the generosity of the many individuals, businesses, and foundations that are listed in this honor roll of Donors.

Paul h. mylander, chairman, Beebe Medical Foundation William Swain lee, chairman, Beebe Healthcare

nursing education CampaignNurses provide frontline care and comfort at a difficult time in the lives of patients and their families, but there is a critical shortage of nurses in Delaware and across the country.

the new Nursing education campaign will help provide for the renovation and construction of the new Beebe Healthcare–Margaret H. rollins school of Nursing. the new school will allow Beebe to double our graduating classes, helping to alleviate the shortage of nurses in our area.

25th annual Beebe Ball: The Silver Soiréenovember 3, 2012this gala dinner dance and silent auction, held in November, has become the highlight of the winter season, and since its inception the proceeds have benefited various Beebe Healthcare programs.

over the last 25 years, the Ball has raised more than $1.8 million. Net proceeds from the 2012 event totaled more than $104,000 to add electro-physiology services to the cardiac program at Beebe Healthcare. ePs (electrophysiologic study) is the procedure that looks at the electrical conduc-tion of the heart. Heart rhythm disorders can be electrical, circulatory, or structural in origin. our expanded program will allow us to treat patients with heart rhythm disorders. these treatments can often change the course of someone’s life.

iNForMatioN For tHe coMMuNit yget a Flu Shot this Season tHe FLu viruses cHaNge eacH year aND vacciNes are Necessary aNNuaLLy

Beebe healthcare joins the centers for Disease control and Prevention in recommending that the following populations consider getting the annual influenza vaccination:

• People 50 to 64 years of age. nearly one-third of people between the ages of 50 and 64 in the United States have one or more medical conditions that place them at an increased risk for serious flu complications.

• People who can transmit flu to others at high risk for complications. any person in close contact with someone in a high-risk group should get vaccinat-ed. this includes all healthcare workers, household contacts and out-of-home caregivers of young children up to 23 months of age, and close con-tacts with people 65 years and older.

according to cDc, people at high risk for complications from influenza include:

• People 65 years and older. • People who live in nursing homes and other

long-term care facilities that house those with long-term illnesses.

• adults and children six months and older with chronic heart or lung conditions, including asthma.

• adults and children six months and older who needed regular medical care or were in a hospital during the previous year because of a metabolic disease (like diabetes), chronic kidney disease, or

weakened immune system (including immune system problems caused by medicines or by infection with human immunodeficiency virus [hIv/aIDS]).

• children six months to 18 years of age who are on long-term aspirin therapy. (children given aspirin while they have influenza are at risk of reye’s syndrome.)

• Women who are pregnant during influenza season. • all children six to 23 months of age. • People with any condition that can compromise

respiratory function or the handling of respiratory secretions (that is, a condition that makes it hard to breathe or swallow, such as brain injury or disease, spinal cord injuries, seizure disorders, or other nerve or muscle disorders).

Free FLu sHots Beebe healthcare has been offering free flu vaccines to adults 18 years of age and older since mid-September. Free flu clinics are being offered each monday through november 18, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the east lobby of the hospital at 424 Savannah road, lewes. Beebe will provide several additional free flu clinics across Sussex county this fall. See Beebe’s website for more details, www.beebehealthcare.org or call Beebe Population health at (302) 645-3337.
