CEO/Executive Director/Board Comments
| Health care is changing. While watching these changes, we continue caring for those who remain uninsured, whether through no insurance offered at their employment, underemployed, the cost is higher than they can afford, or they do not earn enough to qualify for health care thru the ACA. This presents challenges. We are pleased when patients are able to obtain insurance, yet we are constantly reaching out to businesses, chambers, churches, and individuals to inform them of the purpose and availability of Partners for Healing. We have seen an increasing amount of our patients coming to us with multiple chronic diseases in advanced stages. To see a new admittance with both hypertension and diabetes is not unusual. With our chronic disease self - management program we are able to spend individual time with our patients, many of whom have little or no health literacy. This takes multiple sessions. We begin with simple steps and small successes based on nutrition, education, exercise, and medication compliance. In time and with repetition, many, are able to self - managed their illnesses. With a changing board membership, we are looking at new ways to reach into and work with our community. With a community that contains those who are self - employed and underemployed, and currently no expansion of Medicaid within the state of Tennessee, our board recognizes the need for Partners for Healing to remain serving the people who fall in this gap - the working uninsured. |
