Our slogan “Caring for You” appropriately applied to fiscal 2015 as Parkview experienced significant growth in nearly all service lines.

Parkview MOBILE NURSES

Stayin’ alive...

35 interactive demonstrations teaching bystander CPR -Parkview Mobile Nurses

performed to the tune “Stayin’ Alive” at assemblies in schools, businesses and at community events intending to prove just how easy CPR can be.

Promoting Hands-Only CPR and Heart Health

Educated over 6,275 people

Rave Reviews...

“We truly appreciate teaming up with the Parkview Mobile Nurses to promote heart health and hands-only CPR. You ladies are awesome and are doing an incredible job.”
- Janeen McDonald, AHA Vice President of Youth Market

“The assembly was awesome! Parkview Mobile Nurses did a great job! The students are still talking about how cool the assembly was.”
- Highland Park Elementary School

The Parkview Mobile Nurses partnered with the American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology/CardioSmart to educate Pueblo and surrounding communities on bystander CPR and heart health. The tempo to “Stayin’ Alive” almost perfectly matches the recommended rate for performing hands-only CPR — 100 chest compressions per minute with no mouth-to-mouth resuscitation necessary.

Parkview MOBILE NURSES

educated our community throughout the rest of the year conducting...

280 health events

Along with the demonstrations, the Mobile Nurses incorporated educational tips on heart disease prevention through proper nutrition, exercise, not smoking, and hydration. The presentations were lively and interactive creating a memorable experience in hopes that in an emergency, people would recall two simple steps - call 911 and push hard and fast in the middle of a person’s chest, to the disco beat of “Stayin’ Alive”. A slightly different technique is recommended for children.

“Over 700,000 Americans experience heart attacks outside a hospital every year, and almost 90 percent die,” said Dr. Gordon Tomaselli, the President of the American Heart Association.

Studies have shown that hands-only CPR can be as effective as conventional CPR, which combines mouth-to-mouth resuscitation with compressions. Both types can double or even triple survival rates if CPR begins in the ﬁrst few minutes after a heart attack.

Physician Recruiting

CARING FOR YOU

Parkview remains dedicated in actively recruiting physicians to meet the needs of the community.

THROUGH INVESTMENT

We acquired the da Vinci Xi robotic surgical system to

partner the latest state-of-the-art technology with Parkview’s talented group of surgeon’s, providing patients with less invasive surgical options and faster recovery.
The recruiting department hosted 76 physician and physician-extender (PA or NP) community site visits. • Nine physician extender positions were ﬁlled in primary care and specialty care.

Parkview became the ﬁrst Colorado hospital to join the U.S. Army Partnership for Youth Success (PaYS) program,

designed to prepare, train and connect Soldiers to future employers. The PaYS program will provide Parkview a pool of highly skilled, motivated and professional candidates to consider for personnel needs.

• Eleven physicians relocated to

Pueblo during the year and have initiated practice.
• Five additional physicians have signed agreements and will be joining the community in the near future.

Parkview debuted a new convenient location for Parkview Medical Group’s Orthopedic Surgeons, as well as an additional outpatient rehabilitation center at ParkWest

Medical Complex. The location allows for the two ofﬁces to be across the hall from one another, providing patients with the ease of seeing their surgeon and physical therapist.

Newly recruited physicians:

Dr. Eric Elliott Dr. Kristen Scaff

Internal Medicine (Residency Faculty/Inpatient Service)

Dr. Brita Krabacher Dr. Michelle Kowalis

Internal Medicine Outpatient

Nothing is more precious than a new born bundle of joy.

Parkview invested in Cuddles Infant Protection System to

ensure we are providing the highest quality infant protection for your families newest addition.

Dr. Neil Banga

General Surgery

Dr. Svetlana Naymark

Parkview now offers the most advanced surgical suites in the region. We have invested in clean air orthopedic surgical suites, as well as a hybrid suite with integrated CAT Scan capability, in order to protect our patients from surgical infections.

OB/Gyn

Dr. David Feuer

Vascular Surgery

Dr. Henrique Fernandez Dr. William Murchison

Gastroenterology

Upon discharge from the hospital 30-35% of patients do not have their prescriptions ﬁlled, which increased the likelihood they will be readmitted to the hospital. In an effort to increase the number of patients ﬁlling prescriptions, as well as decreasing readmissions to Parkview, we opened a retail pharmacy and created a Meds-to-Beds program to ensure our patients are going home with the medication they need.

Dr. David Rex Abbott

Radiology

Dr. Jennifer Fitzpatrick

Orthopedic Surgery

Looking forward, ﬁve additional newly recruited physicians will soon be providing much needed physician coverage for:

The Breast Health Navigator Program was implemented to

help women and their families overcome the barriers placed on women seeking treatment for breast cancer. Parkview began assisting patients and families understand the diagnosis and connect with available community resources, while helping before, during and after breast cancer treatment.
