Rural Emergency Hospitals and Access to Trauma Care
We're celebrating hospitals and nurses nationwide in May - especially the critical role hospitals play in emergency care and keeping our communities - both urban and rural - well-cared-for and healthy. My guest is Brian Floyd, Chief Operating Officer with ECU Health. He shares details on the state's first Rural Emergency Hospital.
Improving Well-Being and Longevity
The North Carolina Healthcare Association invites you to listen to this month's podcast, "Conversations on the State of Healthcare." This month we examine the Thrive5 developed by ThriveOBX. The Thrive5 is a way to bring the community together using outside partnerships to develop programs that help you stay healthy as you age. Our guest is Amy Montgomery, Executive Director of Outer Banks Health.
Patient-centered Policy and actual patient care
This month we delve into patient-centered policy and how it aligns with actual patient care. We have the pleasure of speaking with Novant Health Center for Public Policy Solutions Lead Elizabeth Outten and Steering Committee Physician Chair, Dr. Sid Fletcher.
The Pearl
Today, we’re diving into a project that’s making big waves in Charlotte and beyond — The Pearl. It’s more than a new building or campus; it’s a bold reimagining of how health care, education, and innovation come together. I'm joined by Hillary Crittendon, who leads operations for The Pearl and has played an important role in its growth and development since the district's inception.
Precisely You
Today we’re talking about an exciting new health initiative happening in Wake County called Precisely You It’s a first-of-its-kind community program designed to use DNA to transform the way we approach health. We talk about it with our guest Waqiah Ellis, Ph.D., MSN, RN, vice president of Nursing for WakeMed Raleigh Campus.
Healthy People, Healthy Carolinas
Today we’re celebrating the 10th anniversary of Healthy People, Healthy Carolinas, a powerful initiative from The Duke Endowment that supports community-based coalitions across the Carolinas working together to improve health. One of those coalitions is Healthy Together Cleveland. Joining me is Jordan Frye, HTC's program and project coordinator.
Tackling Transportation Barriers to Accessing Health Care
in this episode, we are diving into a topic that affects millions but rarely gets the spotlight it deserves: transportation barriers to healthcare access. Each year, 3.6 million people in the U.S. delay or skip medical care simply because they can’t get to a provider. That’s why today’s guest is so important. I’m thrilled to be joined by LaPonda Edmondson, president of the North Carolina Healthcare Foundation which is the charitable non-profit, innovative and programmatic arm of our show’s sponsor the North Carolina Healthcare Association.
Whole Child, Whole Family, Whole Community
A major collaboration is making waves in Iredell County, North Carolina. It’s called the Whole Child, Whole Family, Whole Community Collaborative, or Whole 3. This countywide initiative is aiming to transform the way we support and serve families by bringing together organizations, resources, and people in a way we’ve never seen before. Joining us today to talk about what this all means is Kim Holland, development coordinator for the Iredell Health Foundation.
NCHA: Paramedics Preventing Emergencies Before They Happen
Have you ever heard of paramedics who don’t just respond to emergencies, but work to prevent them? That’s exactly what Cape Fear Valley Health’s Community Paramedic Program is all about. It’s a groundbreaking initiative where paramedics aren’t just transporting patients — they’re building bridges to better care, right from the patient’s living room. Alinda Bailey, Manager of the Community Paramedic Program, joins us to tell us how it works.
NCHA: Expanding Mental Health Care in Eastern North Carolina
Today we’re talking about an exciting new program that’s expanding mental health care in Eastern North Carolina. This partnership is making a big difference, particularly for military families. Joining me to break it all down is Dr. Joseph Pino, senior vice president of medical education and research at Novant Health.
