Compass to Host Virtual Patient Care Volunteer Training

January 14, 2021 by Spy Desk Leave a Comment

Share

Compass will be offering their three-day training session virtually for any individuals interested in becoming a patient care volunteer.

The training session is scheduled for 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. February 12, 19, and 26. Due to COVID restrictions, the training will take place virtually through Zoom. Registration is required and completing the entire class is necessary for volunteers who wish to provide companionship and support to Compass patients and their loved ones in Queen Anne’s, Kent and Caroline counties.

“Most often, patient volunteers give companionship to patients by reading, playing cards, or just watching television with them. They also give caregivers a chance to have a much needed break to tend to other responsibilities.” said Robyn Affron, volunteer manager at Compass. “Occasionally our patients need some gardening or laundry done, or a quick errand run. Our volunteers provide the added support that our patients and families need during what can be an overwhelming time.”

Topics taught during the training will include an overview of hospice, the process of dying, spiritual care and its place in hospice care, the stages of grief, effective communications techniques, family dynamics, stress management and self-care for caregivers.

Compass relies on more than 300 volunteers of all ages to support its mission, and these individuals volunteer their time in a variety of ways. In addition to patient care volunteers, Compass is currently seeking volunteers for Estate Treasures, their upscale retail shop whose proceeds help cover uncompensated patient care. Whatever your motivation to volunteer, there is a place for you at Compass.

To register or find out more information about becoming a volunteer for Compass, contact Robyn Affron at 443-262-4112 or raffron@compassregionalhospice.org.

Compass

Since 1985, Compass has been allowing patients to spend their final months the way they choose, guiding loved ones after a life-limiting diagnosis, and showing individuals healthy ways to manage their grief. Today, the organization is a regional provider of hospice care, supportive care, and grief services in Caroline, Kent, and Queen Anne’s counties. Whether serving their patients in private residences, skilled nursing facilities, or Compass’ residential centers in Centreville and Chestertown, staff and volunteers are guided by their mission to ensure that individuals facing end of life can live out their days in a full and meaningful way.

Compass is a fully licensed, independent, community-based nonprofit organization certified by Medicare and the state of Maryland, and accredited by the Joint Commission. It is affiliated with the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization and the Hospice & Palliative Care Network of Maryland.

UM Chester River Health Foundation Sponsors Angel Tree

December 24, 2020 by UM Shore Regional Health Leave a Comment

Share

The UM Chester River Health Foundation recently sponsored its tenth annual Angel Tree on which “holiday wishes” were hung for special populations in need, including children in the Kent and Queen Anne’s counties’ foster care programs and adults with developmental disabilities who have no living family members and are served by Kent Center.

Some of the wishes were surprising again this year and included basic needs, such as clothes, winter coats and shoes; of course, toys, arts and craft supplies and gift cards were requested as well. More than 60 brightly packaged holiday gifts were donated by the members of the staff of UM Shore Medical Center at Chestertown and the UM Chester River Health Foundation.

UM SMC at Chestertown team members Donna Jamar, Bruce Webb, John Stewart and Gladys Peebles with some of the gifts collected for the Angel Tree program.

Because of COVID-19, the 2020 Angel Tree gift pick up worked a little differently this year. Recipient entities arrived by appointment and gifts were brought outside to awaiting cars.

“The extraordinary participation by staff and their incredible generosity in some ways shows our appreciation to the community for its incredible support of UM Shore Regional Medical Center at Chestertown throughout the pandemic,” said Maryann Ruehrmund, executive director, UM Chester River Health Foundation.

Choptank Community Health System has received the American Heart Association’s Target: Type 2 Diabetes℠ Gold Award for implementing quality improvement measures addressing the relationship between diabetes and cardiovascular disease in outpatient settings.

An adult with diabetes is hospitalized in the U.S. every 80 seconds for heart disease, which can lead to a heart attack. Choptank Health and other organizations earn AHA’s Type 2 Diabetes℠ award through a commitment to improving the health of their patients through high quality care related to type 2 diabetes and management of cardiovascular risk factors, with the ultimate goal of reducing cardiovascular deaths, heart attacks, and strokes in people living with type 2 diabetes.

“Choptank Health is dedicated to providing specialized care for patients with type 2 diabetes in managing their cardiovascular risk factors,” said Choptank Health CEO Sara Rich. “We are pleased to be recognized by the American Heart Association for our execution of quality care through Target: Type 2 Diabetes. The tools and resources provided help us track and measure our success in meeting evidenced-based clinical guidelines developed to improve patient outcomes.”

The Gold Award recognizes practices that have fulfilled AHA’s participant criteria and have met the gold level thresholds for each of two selected clinical measures related to diabetes control and CVD risk factors, hypertension, and high cholesterol.

“More than 30 million Americans live with diabetes and cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death for people living with type 2 diabetes,” said Gregg C. Fonarow, MD, FAHA, volunteer expert from the American Heart Association and chief of the UCLA Division of Cardiology, director of the Ahmanson-UCLA Cardiomyopathy Center, and co-director of UCLA’s Preventive Cardiology Program. “Organizations that participate in programs like this help raise awareness of the link between diabetes and cardiovascular disease and can improve the patient outcomes.

UM SRH Leadership Asks Community to Remain Vigilant; Maintain “Bubbles”

December 21, 2020 by UM Shore Regional Health Leave a Comment

As Covid-19 cases soar across Maryland and the country, there is growing concern among hospital leaders for the potential impact of the upcoming holidays. A large number of recent cases have been attributed to family gatherings, where masking and social distancing are not consistently practiced. Experts continue to encourage people to limit holiday gatherings to their individual “bubbles”—those you live with and/or interact with on a regular basis.

Members of University of Maryland Shore Regional Health’s senior leadership team and Covid incident- command team pledged today to stay in their bubbles during this year’s holiday season.

“We must remain vigilant,” said Ken Kozel, president and CEO, UM Shore Regional Health. “For the health and safety of myself and the greater community, we pledge to enjoy the holidays with only our immediate family members and those friends we see on a regular basis. While this is not ideal, it is necessary to slow the spread. I hope that the community will join us in this pledge.”

All team members at the UM SRH have been asked to remain diligent over the holidays, said Rosa Mateo, MD, Infectious Disease Specialist. “Maintaining our bubbles, social distancing and handwashing remain the best ways to control this devastating virus.”

Dr. Mateo asked that all community members pledge to stay in their bubbles over the holidays, for the protection of everyone. “Please, help us keep our community safe and healthy.”

Melissa’s Story –A Message Of Hope In The Face Of Depression And Suicide

December 18, 2020 by For All Seasons, Inc. Leave a Comment

Share

Melissa decided that it is time to share her story. She hopes by opening up and by paying it forward she will help others to understand that no matter the challenges you face in your life, you can make it through. Reflecting on her past, she recognizes that difficult times can happen to anyone and that the stigma tied to homelessness, depression, and addiction needs to be confronted.

Suffering from depression since her twenties, at 26, Melissa felt unable to cope. She reflects, “Due to family difficulties, I attempted to take my own life.”

Melissa had been working in a doctor’s office and she took a large dose of pills. As she explains, it was more of a cry for help and not knowing where to turn. She was fortunate to make it through this dark period, but other challenges, which she never anticipated, lay ahead.

Years later, Melissa married and she and her husband moved to the Eastern Shore. They were both college-educated and ready to build their life together. They were excited when Melissa became pregnant. Since her husband had a good job as a mechanical engineer, they decided that she would stay home to raise their daughter. Unfortunately, Melissa’s husband needed to have surgery. The medication he was prescribed after the surgery led him to have a pain killer addiction that then led to heroin addiction. Over time, he lost his job, and Melissa, who was working again, had to leave her place of employment because her daughter couldn’t be home alone with her husband. As challenges escalated, Melissa and her daughter became homeless.

“I don’t think that people understand that it can happen to anyone. My husband and I are both college-educated, both from middle-class families, and this is just an insidious problem that I didn’t know about until it got really bad,” she explains.

Thankfully, Melissa had been keeping track of her mental health. When she was pregnant, she was referred to a therapist at For All Seasons and maintained her relationship with her therapist through these extremely difficult years. “Being able to have that safe space to be able to come and talk saved my life . . . At the scariest lowest point of my life, I was able to get through,” she adds.

When Melissa was asked, “What would you want to say to someone who has fallen on hard times?” She did not hesitate to answer, “You have to find something within yourself – even if only small things . . . to take that next step. If you don’t have a therapist, find a therapist. If you don’t have a therapist, find a friend. There is always someone. It is my experience that strangers show the greatest kindness. There is always someone out there. There are organizations out there, there are people out there that will always lend a hand.”

Melissa says that her connection with her therapist was what helped turn her life in a new direction. For her, it was this relationship and the kindness of strangers that not only helped her get through but strengthened her resolve to give back and to go back to school to become a social worker.

When asked what she would say to someone who feels as though life is not worth living and who contemplates ending their life, Melissa shares, “That emptiness that you have – there is someone who can talk to you, who can get you to someone where you do feel comfortable telling them about how you are feeling. You really aren’t alone. It may not be a parent or a friend or someone that you would naturally think would come to your aide – a lot of times they are not equipped.”

“But, there are people on the hotlines and websites. If you can get yourself to reach out just please reach out – there is help. There really is. It will be ok. Where you are now is not where you will always be.”

Melissa is now in her third year of her Masters of Social Work program. Her therapist has noticed how she wants to advocate for other people and has asked Melissa if she might consider working in macro social work policy. When asked what she may want to do in the coming years, she responds, “I am hoping in five years that I will have taken my life lessons and turned that into paying forward everything that was given to me. I volunteer at the shelter where we lived. All I can do is hope to keep paying forward the kindness that was given to me.”

For All Seasons operates as a 501(c)(3) non-profit, non-sectarian organization established in the Mid-Shore area to assist individuals, groups, and communities by providing trauma-certified Mental Health and Psychiatry Services, Rape Crisis Services including advocacy and crisis hotlines, and education and outreach to the community.

Chester River Health Foundation Year-End Appeal Encourages Participation Amid CARES Act Tax Incentives

December 15, 2020 by Shore Regional Health System Leave a Comment

Share

The Chester River Health Foundation recently announced its year-end gift appeal to the community to help fund the purchase of a new, state of the art inpatient telemetry system for UM Shore Medical Center at Chestertown.  

Telemetry technology continuously measures and monitors patients’ vital signs – at the bedside and through WIFI during transport. It’s an especially critical tool when caring for patients with any type of heart or respiratory condition.

“With the special tax benefits provided by the CARES Act for donations to qualified charities, right now is a powerful time to make a gift,” said Maryann Ruehrmund, executive director.

The expanded charitable giving incentive allows taxpayers who take the standardized deduction to also contribute and deduct up to $300 in charitable cash contributions to qualified charities this year. (This deduction is not available for gifts to donor-advised funds.) The law states that the $300 deduction is per “tax-filing unit,” so the deduction is limited to $300 for married taxpayers filing jointly.

Gabrielle Matthews, monitor technician, and Kathy Elliott, hospital executive director, demonstrate the telemetry equipment that measures and monitors patients’ vital signs at the bedside and during transport.

For those who itemize their tax returns, contributions to public charities are generally limited to a percentage of a taxpayer’s adjusted gross income (AGI). The CARES Act temporarily lifted the cap on cash contributions, increasing it from 60% of AGI to 100% of AGI for 2020. Any excess contributions can be carried over to the next five years.

“The Cares Act provisions are scheduled to expire at the end of this year, so those wishing to help us AND take advantage of the possible tax savings should act quickly,” said Ruehrmund.

“Additionally, we still have a small allocation of Maryland tax credits for 2020, which are available on a first come, first served basis for gifts of $1,000 or more,” Ruehrmund said. “If someone has any interest, please contact me immediately as these tax credits will certainly be depleted before the end of the year.”

“As we look forward to brighter and healthier days in the year to come, the Chester River Health Foundation is committed more than ever to providing the support needed to enhance health care excellence for the community,” said Ruehrmund.

To make a gift online, please visit umcrhf.org/donate. Checks may be mailed to Chester River Health Foundation, 100 Brown Street, Chestertown, MD 21620 by December 31, 2020. For gifts of stock, please contact the Foundation for transfer instructions by calling (410) 810-5660.

As part of the University of Maryland Medical System (UMMS), University of Maryland Shore Regional Health is the principal provider of comprehensive health care services for more than 170,000 residents of Caroline, Dorchester, Kent, Queen Anne’s and Talbot counties on Maryland’s Eastern Shore.
