  • Construction Now Underway on New Benefis Emergency Department
    ContributorSummer 2017 Construction Now Underway on New Benefis Emergency Department A groundbreaking ceremony was held on June 12, 2017, marking the official start of the construction for the new $12.5 million Benefis Emergency Department (ED). The size of the ED will be nearly doubled through both new construction and remodeling, and the innovative design will allow more efficient and patient-friendly care with shorter wait times. Construction for the new ED will take approximately 18 months to complete. Throughout that time, the ED will remain completely functional to meet the needs of our community. The Benefis Foundation committed to raising $2.5 million for this state-of-the art, patient- and family-focused center. To date, more than $2 million has been raised. Continued on page 2 “Our amazing donors are helping to ensure the future of world-class, life-saving emergency care for years to come.” Kevin Langkiet, Benefis Director of Emergency Services and Critical Care Benefis Health System Foundation The current Benefis ED was designed and built nearly two decades ago to care for only 24,000 patients annually. Today, the Benefis ED cares for more than 34,000 patients per year.

Thomas and Theresa R.

Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.

The reassessment was in response to guidelines developed by the U. S. Department of Transportation and the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency for citizen participation in the transportation planning process. It was concluded that a better defined and more effective citizen’s participation process was needed. As such, the Planning Board prepared a participation program which addressed and identified weaknesses and outlined the procedures to be followed in carrying out the process. With the passage of the Federal Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991, an additional assessment of the Planning Board's public involvement process was conducted and resulted in the process revision dated May, 1996. On April 26, 2005, the Cascade County Board of Commissioners passed a resolution to dissolve the Great Falls City-County Planning Board and associated jurisdictional area, effective July 1, 2005.
