Organizations Filed Purposes: YRMC'S MISSION IS TO PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE, HIGH QUALITY HEALTHCARE CONSISTENT WITH OUR COMMUNITIES' NEEDS.

YAVAPAI REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER (YRMC) IS HONORED TO SERVE THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY OF WESTERN YAVAPAI COUNTY. WE CARE FOR EVERYONE LIVING IN OUR REGION THROUGH HIGH QUALITY INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT SERVICES AS WELL AS A WIDE RANGE OF VALUABLE COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND HEALTH EDUCATION PROGRAMS. YRMC SERVES THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF PEOPLE OF ALL AGES AND FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE. WE'RE PLEASED TO MEET THOSE NEEDS 24 HOURS A DAY, 365 DAYS A YEAR. YRMC'S SOLE PURPOSE IS TO PROVIDE HIGH-QUALITY HEALTHCARE AND IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. THERE ARE NO STOCKHOLDERS TO WHOM WE MUST PAY DIVIDENDS; WE FOCUS INSTEAD ON THE PEOPLE WE SERVE. THE DIVIDENDS THEY RECEIVE ARE HEALTHIER LIVES FOR THEMSELVES AND THOSE THEY LOVE. ANY MONEY REMAINING AFTER YRMC HAS COVERED ITS EXPENSES GOES BACK INTO THE ORGANIZATION TO HELP EXPAND PROGRAMS AND ADD NEW SERVICES FOR THE PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITIES. YRMC'S VISION IS CREATING A TOTAL HEALING ENVIRONMENT, IN WHICH THE PEOPLE ASSOCIATED WITH YRMC WORK IN PARTNERSHIP WITH PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES WHO ARE SEEKING PEACE OF MIND AND PEACE OF HEART AS WELL AS PHYSICAL CURE AND COMFORT BECAUSE WE RESPECT THE INDIVISIBLE RELATIONSHIP THAT EXISTS BETWEEN BODY, MIND AND THE HUMAN SPIRIT. THE SPIRIT OF CARING IS A HIGHER CALLING THAT RESONATED THROUGHOUT YRMC IN 2019. YRMC'S FAMILY WHICH IS COMPRISED OF BOARD MEMBERS, COMMUNITY LEADERS AND ADVOCATES, PHILANTHROPIC DONORS, EMPLOYEES, PHYSICIANS AND VOLUNTEERS DID NOT WAVER FROM THIS SPIRIT OF CARING AND COMPASSION. YRMC HAS TWO HOSPITALS; ONE IN PRESCOTT, YRMC WEST, AND ONE IN PRESCOTT VALLEY, YRMC EAST. CONSIDER THAT IN 2019, YRMC EMBRACED ITS NOT-FOR-PROFIT MISSION BY INVESTING IN COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR THE PEOPLE OF WESTERN YAVAPAI COUNTY. THIS INCLUDES DIRECT HEALTHCARE SERVICES AS WELL AS PROGRAMS THAT IMPROVE HEALTH AND PREVENT ILLNESS. IN 2019, YRMC TOUCHED NEARLY EVERY ONE OF THE RESIDENTS IN OUR SERVICE AREA THROUGH OUR COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND HEALTH EDUCATION EFFORTS. YRMC DIRECTLY PARTNERED WITH 47 COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS AND ENGAGED A LARGE NUMBER OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS AS A RESULT. YRMC'S CELEBRATE LIFE HEALTH EXPO WAS HELD OVER TWO DAYS AND HOSTED 114 EXHIBITORS, TO PROVIDE A WIDE RANGE OF HEALTH INFORMATION AND EDUCATION FOR 3,500 PARTICIPANTS FROM THE COMMUNITY. THE SPIRIT OF YRMC IS ONE OF TREATING EACH PATIENT AS A UNIQUE AND VALUABLE HUMAN BEING. EVERY PERSON WE ENCOUNTER, FROM TINY NEWBORNS TO FRAIL CENTENARIANS, ARE AMONG THOSE SPECIAL PEOPLE. YRMC PROVIDES PEACE OF MIND AND PEACE OF HEART YEAR IN AND YEAR OUT TO ALL OUR PATIENTS, EACH ONE OF WHOM IS SPECIAL TO US. YRMC ALSO OFFERS A PATIENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM TO HELP PEOPLE WHO HAVE NO INSURANCE OR WHO HAVE LIMITED INSURANCE COVERAGE. AT NO TIME HAS THIS KIND OF SUPPORT BEEN MORE IMPORTANT - OR MORE WELCOMED - THAN NOW. YRMC WORKS DILIGENTLY WITH PATIENTS TO ALLOW THEM TO WORRY LESS ABOUT PAYING FOR SERVICES AND BE ABLE TO FOCUS MORE DIRECTLY ON RECOVERING AND GETTING BACK ON THEIR FEET. 2019 WAS ANOTHER YEAR OF PROVIDING PERSONALIZED CARE TO MANY THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE. FOR EXAMPLE, 1,031 BABIES WERE BORN IN YRMC'S OBSTETRICS DEPARTMENT. WITH YRMC'S LEVEL II NURSERY MAny OF THE BABIES WHO ARE UNABLE TO BE DISCHARGED TO HOME SPEND ADDITIONAL DAYS AND WEEKS IN OUR CARE. THESE ARE PRE-TERM BABIES WITH LOW BIRTH WEIGHT AND MANY OF THEM ARE ADDICTED TO CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES DUE TO THEIR MOTHERS - USE OF DRUGS - A HEARTBREAKING REALITY IN MANY ARIZONA HOMES WHICH IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE LACK OF MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE SERVICES, PRENATAL CARE AND OTHER SUPPORT SERVICES TO THOSE IN NEED. IT'S THE HELPLESS AND INNOCENT INFANTS WHO SUFFER THE MOST. YRMC'S OB NURSES DO THEIR LEVEL BEST WHEN THESE TINY, FRAGILE INFANTS ARE IN OUR CARE. INCREASINGLY, ECONOMIC CONDITIONS ALONG WITH THE ADDED CHALLENGES OF NEW BABIES CAN CREATE STRESS THAT'S UNMANAGEABLE FOR MANY YOUNG FAMILIES. CONSEQUENTLY, YRMC PROVIDES FAMILY RESOURCE CENTER SERVICES THAT INCLUDE FREE PARENTING EDUCATION, COUNSELING SERVICES AND COORDINATION WITH OTHER COMMUNITY RESOURCES THAT CAN HELP SUPPORT YOUNG FAMILIES IN NEED. THIS PROGRAM HAS ALSO PROVIDED BASIC NECESSITIES FOR NEW FAMILIES SUCH AS BABY FORMULA AND DIAPERS. THE FAMILY RESOURCE CENTER ADVISED 1,010 PARENTS ON HOW TO CARE FOR THEIR NEWBORNS THROUGH THE FIRST STEPS PROGRAM. AND PERSONAL VISITS WERE PROVIDED TO 102 FAMILIES FOR ONGOING SUPPORT THROUGH YRMC'S HEALTHY FAMILIES PROGRAM. THESE PROGRAMS FOCUS ON ELIMINATING CHILD ABUSE AND NEGLECT AMONG PARTICIPATING FAMILIES. YRMC IS DOING ALL IT CAN TO HELP OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY WITH THESE CHALLENGES AS PART OF OUR NOT-FOR-PROFIT MISSION. YRMC ALSO OFFERS THE PARTNERS FOR HEALTHY STUDENTS PROGRAM, ANOTHER EFFORT TO FILL GAPS IN THE NATIONAL POLICY REGARDING THE PROVISION OF HEALTHCARE SERVICES FOR THE UNDERSERVED. THIS IS A SCHOOL-BASED HEALTH PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN WHO ARE UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED. HIGH INSURANCE COSTS OFTEN MEAN THAT YOUNG FAMILIES CAN ONLY PURCHASE INSURANCE POLICIES WITH ENORMOUS DEDUCTIBLES, RENDERING THE VALUE OF THEIR INSURANCE FOR REGULAR PREVENTIVE CARE OR BASIC PRIMARY CARE UNAFFORDABLE AND, THEREFORE, INACCESSIBLE. THE PROGRAM IS LED BY TWO PEDIATRIC NURSE PRACTITIONERS (PNPS) WHO WORK IN CONJUNCTION WITH A LOCAL PEDIATRICIAN. SCHOOL-AGE CHILDREN AND THEIR YOUNGER SIBLINGS ARE DIAGNOSED AND TREATED FOR A WIDE VARIETY OF HEALTH PROBLEMS. A SPECIALLY-EQUIPPED MEDICAL VAN IS SENT TO LOCAL SCHOOLS - ESPECIALLY IN THE OUTLYING AREAS WHERE UNEMPLOYME IS RAMPANT. SOME CHILDREN HAVE PREVIOUSLY UNDIAGNOSED CHRONIC HEALTH PROBLEMS LIKE ASTHMA, ALLERGIES, EAR INFECTIONS AND SUBSEQUENT HEARING LOSS, OR VISION PROBLEMS. MANY CHILDREN HAVE NEVER SEEN A DENTIST AND HAVE PAINFUL TOOTH DECAY THAT CAUSES THEIR TEETH TO BE BLACK AND ROTTED DOWN TO THE GUMS. THESE CHILDREN SUFFER TREMENDOUS PAIN EVERY DAY ALONG WITH THE SOCIAL EMBARRASSMENT OF BAD TEETH AND BAD BREATH. THE PNPS WORK COLLABORATIVELY WITH DENTISTS TO GET THESE CHILDREN THE HELP THEY NEED. AND AN EXCITING NEW ELEMENT OF THE PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN WAS ADDED IN 2019. THANKS TO THE GENEROSITY OF LOCAL PHILANTHROPISTS, YRMC'S PARTNERS FOR HEALTHY STUDENTS WAS ABLE TO ADD BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES. THIS ASPECT OF THE PROGRAM WAS LAUNCHED THROUGH COLLABORATION WITH LOCAL BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROVIDERS. THE PARTNERS FOR HEALTHY STUDENTS PROGRAM HELPS ENSURE CHILDREN ARE GIVEN THE CARE AND TREATMENT THEY NEED BUT COULD NOT OTHERWISE RECEIVE. PHYSICAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROBLEMS CAN SERIOUSLY IMPEDE CHILDREN'S ABILITY TO LEARN AND GROW UP AS HEALTHY AND PRODUCTIVE ADULTS. IN 2019, 1,045 STUDENTS RECEIVED FREE HEALTHCARE SERVICES THROUGH 27 IN-SCHOOL CLINICS AND THE YRMC MOBILE KIDS HEALTH CLINIC. YRMC IS PROUD TO PROVIDE THESE SERVICES AT NO CHARGE FOR THOSE IN NEED. THERE ARE ALSO NUMEROUS BENEFICIAL PROGRAMS PROVIDED FOR ADULTS BY YRMC. FOR EXAMPLE, IN 2019 MORE THAN 145 PEOPLE SUFFERING WITH RESPIRATORY PROBLEMS WERE HELPED TO BREATHE EASIER THROUGH THE HOSPITAL'S CLASSES IN RESPIRATORY WELLNESS. YRMC PROVIDED MORE THAN 290 MEALS FOR A LOCAL HOUSING SHELTER IN 2019. YRMC ALSO HELPED FINANCIALLY SUPPORT THE NO HUNGRY KIDS INITIATIVE TO FEED CHILDREN FROM UNDERSERVED HOMES YEAR-ROUND. THE JAMES FAMILY HEART CENTER AT YRMC PERFORMS HUNDREDS OF CARDIAC AND THORACIC CASES AND HAS ALSO PERFECTED A BLOOD MANAGEMENT PROGRAM WHICH GREATLY BENEFITS PATIENTS. IN 2019, YRMC PROVIDED 517 ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY PROCEDURES IN THE NEW HYBRID OPERATING ROOM. THERE WERE 1,139 CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION PROCEDURES AND 201 OPEN HEART SURGERIES. THERE WERE ALSO 69 TAVR PROCEDURES. THERE WERE 2,403 INTERVENTIONAL CARDIOLOGY PROCEDURES AND 860 INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY PROCEDURES IN ADDITION TO 45 VASCULAR INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY PROCEDURES. IN 2018, YRMC HELPED HUNDREDS OF INDIVIDUALS WITH DIABETES BETTER MANAGE THEIR HEALTH THROUGH OUTPATIENT EDUCATION IN ORDER TO PREVENT HOSPITALIZATION AND THE MANY COMPLICATIONS DIABETES CAN CAUSE. MANY NEWLY- DIAGNOSED DIABETICS LEARNED MORE ABOUT THEIR CONDITION AND HOW TO MAINTAIN AND OPTIMIZE THEIR HEALTH. MORE THAN 795 PATIENTS PARTICIPATED IN YRMC'S DIABETES SELF-MANAGEMENT PROGRAM. A VIGOROUS COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROGRAM REACHED THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE IN OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY WITH COMPLIMENTARY, CURRENT HEALTH INFORMATION. THIS INCLUDES FREE HEALTH FAIRS AND A SPEAKERS' - BUREAU SERVICE, PROVIDING 130 PRESENTATIONS FROM YRMC HEALTH PROFESSIONALS ABOUT HEALTH-RELATED TOPICS FOR THE COMMUNITY. MANY SPEAKERS ALSO DISTRIBUTE ADDITIONAL FREE TAKE-HOME INFORMATION PROVIDED BY YRMC FOR FUTURE REFERENCE, WHETHER IT IS ABOUT FITNESS, NUTRITION, STRESS MANAGEMENT OR WHATEVER TOPIC THE GROUP REQUESTS. OUR MONTHLY COMMUNITY CALENDAR LISTS THE TIME, DATE AND PLACE OF PROGRAMS AND PRESENTATIONS FOR VARIOUS TOPICS FROM CHILDBIRTH CLASSES TO PRE-OPERATIVE PROGRAMS FOR THOSE WHO WILL HAVE HIP OR KNEE REPLACEMENTS, AND STRESS MANAGEMENT TO NUTRITION CLASSES AND MUCH MORE. YRMC'S PHYSICAL REHABILITATION DEPARTMENT OFFERS FALL RISK ASSESSMENTS
