Welcome toHealthy ConnectionsFo e Pesiden/CEO

W

e are fortunate in Winona. Our

community is strong, thriving and

diverse in a number of ways. And while there

are many strong businesses and industries

represented in Winona, the healthcare sector

has its role to fulfill. We at Winona Health

recognize the critical responsibility of

providing high quality, effective healthcare in

our community, and we are honored to do

our part.

Healthcare has an impact on all of our lives,

whether we are dealing with personal health

issues, concerned about healthcare costs,expecting high quality care and service, or hoping our health will hold up so

we dont need healthcare services. At Winona Health we are committed to a

revolutionary transformation of community healthcare, and we are excited

about what this means for patients, residents and the community. Our

challenge is to meet your changing needs and to exceed your expectations.

You will read in this issue how the focus of physicians and staff has resulted

in nationally recognized outcomes and how key procedures can change

someones life. This happens every day at Winona Health.

I am so impressed with the quality and caliber of physicians in our community.

We have a number of outstanding new physicians on our medical staff andrecruitment efforts continue to attract others. We also have said good-bye

to some physicians as they make their own life changes, and we wish them

the best.

The communitys physicians, and our staff, too, work together with a single

focuscaring for you and your family. It is our pleasure to serve you and we

thank you for giving us the opportunity to do so.

Ophthalmologist LaurelQuinn, MD, will openthe Winona Health Eye Care

Center in October.

My husband and I chose

to come to Winona for the

opportunity to fill a real

needto provide important

services to this community,

said Dr. Quinn. I believe my

career goals fit well with the

mission of Winona Health: to

provide great comprehensiveprimary care.

I chose to go into medicine so I could use my scientific

curiosity and communication skills to help people, explained

Dr. Quinn. I chose ophthalmology as a speciality because

vision is so important to people every day. It is so rewarding

to be able to make things better for people in a way they can

SEE, using optics and surgery.

She added, Another factor that attracted me to ophthalmology

is that Ill be able to see patients of all ages. A general

ophthalmologist with an

interest in pediatrics,

Dr. Quinn underwent

specialized training in

child development during

medical school and has

done extensive clinical

research with children

during her ophthalmol-

ogy training.

Dr. Quinn received her

medical degree from the

University of MinnesotaMedical School in

Minneapolis and completed her residency at the Casey Eye

Institute at Oregon Health & Science University in Portland,

Oregon. She is a member of the American Academy of

Ophthalmology and the American Society of Cataract and

Refractive Surgery.

New to Winona but native Minnesotans, Dr. Quinn and her

husband, Jason, have two young daughters, Grace and Faith.

My husband and I are also looking forward to living closer

to those of our relatives who are still in the state.

This new Winona Health Physician Clinic will be located

on the third floor of the new medical office building on

Winona Healths campus. If you would like to make an

appointment with Dr. Quinn, please call 507.474.7830.

Eye Care Center opening soonSurgeries performed by

Dr. Quinn include:Cataract extraction with

intraocular lens implantation

Laser treatment of diabetic

retinopathy and other retinal

vascular disease and glaucoma

Filtering surgery for glaucoma

Eye alignment surgery for

strabismus

Eyelid repair procedures

Laurel Quinn, MD

To preserve and protect yourvision, Dr. Quinn advises:1. Take care of your general health to minimize the

threat to vision posed by out-of-control systemic

diseases such as diabetes, hypertension and tobacco

dependence.

2. Use appropriate protective eyewear for sporting and

work-related tasks known to be high risk for eye injuriessuch as paintball, hockey, and metal or woodworking.

3. Your health history and current health may affect the

health of your eyes. Regular exams will often help

detect problems before specific symptoms develop.

Early detection and treatment of possible eye problems

is the key to protecting your vision. If you have a

family history of eye disease or are experiencing any

eye problems, talk to your doctor.



Its been a long journey, but these days Elizabeth Waters isfinding that the path is more comfortable to walk.Ive had knee problems for about five years, and I was tired

of limping around, explained Waters. When Traci [Morken,

CNP at Winona Clinic*] told me that an orthopaedic surgeon

was coming to Winona, I said, I want to be the first patient!

Tim Gabrielsen, MD, joined Winona Health on May 31 and

performed Waters total knee replacement at Community

Memorial Hospital on June 13.

The knee is the largest joint in the body; because of the

work it performs on a daily basis, it is one of the more

common joints to develop problems. One of these problems

is degenerative joint disease, also commonly referred to as

osteoarthritis. This disease is the gradual deterioration of

the joint surface cartilage caused by time and use.

Early signs of joint disease or osteoarthritis include jointstiffness and, eventually, pain during motion of the affected

joint, explained Dr. Gabrielsen. The pain may increase

during extended activityespecially weight-bearing activity

on the kneesand decrease with rest. Diagnosis is based on

medical history, physical exam and use of digital imaging

or x-ray.

Mrs. Waters wanted

to remain active, and

she was feeling very

restricted by her

knee pain, said Dr.

Gabrielsen. Waters wasa good candidate for

surgery because, shes

at a healthy weight and

she had exhausted

non-operative measures.

Shes also in good

general health.

Individuals are possible

candidates for joint

replacement when they

have advanced arthritic changes in the knee along with pain

that significantly limits their physical abilityboth for daily

living and for activities they enjoy. If an individual has knee

pain that significantly impacts their quality of life and their

ability to remain independent, replacement may be a good

option for them, said Dr. Gabrielsen.

Waters, a fit 78-year-old, is pleased with the results of

her total knee replacement. I absolutely recommend

that others look into this type of surgery, said Waters.

I was very satisfied with the surgical team. Dr. Gabrielsen

is very warm, caring and concerned. He was straight-

forward and realistic about what to expectno beating

around the bush!

Less than six weeks after her surgery, Waters said, I feel

great, and Im about ready to take a walk around the lake!

I think Dr. Gabrielsen is satisfied with my progress, too.

For more information about orthopaedic procedures

available in Winona, contact your primary care physician

or call Winona Health Sports & Orthopaedic Specialists

at 507.474.6600.

Elizabe Waes walks on e

new knee wi D. Gabielsen.

What can be done to decrease the risk

of developing joint problems?

Maintain a healthy body weight and maintain strength in

general, but especially in the muscles supporting the affected

joints, advises Diane Montgomery, a physical therapist with

Winona Health Rehabilitation Services. These measures

dont guarantee that you wont develop degenerative joint

disease, but they will reduce the risk.

What should you do when you begin

experiencing pain in your knees?

Talk to your doctor about getting an evaluation, said

Montgomery. He or she may refer you to physical therapy

for specific exercises to help correct muscle imbalances and

increase specific muscle strengthor recommend

alternative methods to ease discomfort.

Montgomery also noted, Generally, it is recommended that

you continue exercising within your bodys tolerance so you

dont aggravate the condition that is causing pain.

If youve been diagnosed with

degenerative joint disease/

osteoarthritis, you can help

minimize the effects by

participating in low-impact

activities to promote strength

and range of motion.

When other measures are no

longer effective, joint

replacement may be the

answer. After joint replacement,

Montgomery stresses theimportance of following your

doctors orders regarding

restricted activity and encourages patients to follow through

with rehabilitation recommendations to maximize strength

and improve range of motion.

The right fuel for school

Another school year rolls in, and for parents, morningsare busy getting ready for work and getting childrenready for school. Fortunately, making sure children have

the right fuel for a productive day doesnt have to take a lot

of time.

According to Rose Gurley, RD, a Winona Health diabetes

educator and outpatient dietician, Breakfast is important

because it gives us fuel to start the day. It nourishes the

brain and body and provides

energy for us to think and

perform physical activities.

Breakfast is also essential in

helping children do well in

school. Gurley noted that

eating breakfast has proven

to help improve concentra-

tion, problem-solving skills,

mental performance and

mood. School can be tough

enough, said Gurley. And

when kids skip breakfast,

there is the extra stress of

working harder to concentrate on reading or solving a

math problem.

Quick options for breakfast include a bowl of cereal withmilk, dry whole grain cereal with yogurt or milk, and fruit

with toast. If your kids arent hungry for breakfast, send them

to school with a healthy mid-morning snack. Portable items

include whole grain crackers, a hardboiled egg, granola

breakfast bar or even a peanut butter sandwich.

Gurley also emphasized the importance of breakfast in

controlling obesity. Eating breakfast is important for weight

control. If children skip breakfast, they may be more likely

to overeat and snack on high-fat, sugary foods that lead to

excess weight gain and later obesity.

If parents want their children to develop healthy eating

habits, one of the most important things for parents to do is

to be good role models, said Gurley. And eating a healthy

breakfast will help parents have a good day, too!

With the fast pace of everyday life, it can be difficult to be

proactively involved in helping children eat healthfullybut

the effort will be worth the result: a child who has the right

fuel for a productive day.

Community Memorial Hospital received a 2006 Premier

Award for Quality for its care of acute myocardial infarction

(AMI/heart attack) patients.

Receiving the Premier Award for Quality reflects the fact

that our staff and the communitys physicians are

committed to offering the

highest quality patient care

every day, said Rachelle

Schultz, Winona Health CEO.

Grace Glomski of Fountain

City was one of the

community members who

benefited from Community

Memorial Hospitals

award-winning care when

she had a heart attack in

September 2005.

Graces storyAfter mowing her yard on a

warm September afternoon,

Grace, 92, began having a

strange sensation between

her stomach and her chest.

I thought it might be

heartburn, said Grace.

I had never had heartburn,

but I had never had this

pain either until a few

days earlierand then it

went away.

This time, though, it wasnt

going away; it was spreading.

I started wondering ifsomething was wrong with

my heart. Grace said she called her daughter-in-law to ask

if she should take an aspirin. Fortunately, her daughter-in-

law and son immediately got her to the hospital.

In the Emergency Department at Community Memorial

Hospital (CMH), Grace said she remembers thinking,

I wanted to stay close to home. The closer to home

the better!

Road to recoveryGrace spent four days under the care of the nursing team in

Winona Healths Intensive Care Unit and Winona Clinics

Dennis Nolan, MD.

I had very good care

in the hospital. I was

very happy with my

nurseseven though

I dont like to be

waited on, said Grace.

And I really like Dr.Nolan, she added.

Hes kind of a smart

guy. He had me fig-

ured out. I remember

the day I was leaving

the hospital, Dr. Nolan

said, Now dont go

out and mow your

lawn when you get

home!

A year later, Grace

said, Im doing just

fine. My only problem

is my hip and I have

to take pain medicine

for that sometimes.

But Im 92 years

old, and I can live

with that.

Graces daughter, Joy

Schmidtknecht, added,

Shes still very independent, and shes about the great-

est mom anyone could ever have. She has a great sense of

humor.

Being able to provide expert care for people when they

need us the most makes this job very rewarding, said Peggy

Krage-Koenig, RN, the nurse who helped care for Grace

in the Emergency Department.

CMH earned the Premier Awardfor

high quality, cost effective treatment of

Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) based

on clinical process measures, clinical

quality outcome measures and resource

utilization. The award is based on data

submitted to Premier, Inc. for reporting

and benchmarking purposes.

Winona Health was awarded the

Minnesota Quality Award

Advancement Level in recognition of

progress in building and deploying

systematic approaches in leadership,

strategic planning, customer service

and market focus.

Winona Healths Community Memorial

Hospital is ranked one of the Most

WiredSmall & Rural Hospitals for the

fifth consecutive year. Winona Health

won the award for using information

technology to improve quality,

satisfaction and patient care.

Commitment to excellenceGrace is one of many patients who have come to CMH for

heart attack treatment. Consistently doing the right thing

for patients put us in the position to win the Premier award,

said Charles Shepard, MD, Winona Health medical director.

Written pathways and protocols assure the most up-to-datecare for patients with myocardial infarction, unstable angina

and heart failure.

Community Memorial Hospital has been on the leading

edge of care for heart patients for a long time, noted

Dr. Shepard. We participated in the first TIMI [thrombolysis

in myocardial infarction] trial which showed the benefit of

opening clotted arteries of heart patients, he said.

He added, We continue to collaborate with our tertiary

care partners in Rochester and La Crosse. Weve

developed an organized and consistent approach involving

initial diagnosis and care in Winona, followed by transfer

for emergency coronary angiography and angioplasty

when needed.

Community Memorial Hospital physicians and staff

accepted the Premier Award for Quality for treatment of

acute myocardial infarction (AMI/heart attack) patients at a

special presentation on July 27. The award recognizes not

only consistent high quality care, but also efficient use of

resources.

In accepting the award, Dr. Shepard emphasized the

contributions of Andrew Edin, MD, a guiding influence for

the medical staff; Mary Volkart, RN, a leader in nursing

care; Marc Dummit, MD, Emergency Department medical

director; and Brett Whyte, MD, medical director for the

Winona Area Ambulance Service. These people, along withtheir staffs, are strong links in the chain of care.

National and regional awards and recognition



Community commentsOn February 1st, my wife and I were blessed with the birth

of our first child, Christian. He was delivered by C-section

at Winona Health by Dr. Birdsall and your wonderful staff.

The delivery went flawlessly and as new fathers go, I was

overwhelmed with all that was going on. Once we made it

to the [Family Birth Center] and our little bundle was

with us, the shock of what do we do now? was gently

alleviated by the nurturing and guiding expertise of

Tweety [Amparo Oevering] and Wendy [Jandt]. These

compassionate professionals not only cared for us, but

helped teach us some of the basics.

We are truly grateful to everyone and look forward to

having our next family member at Winona Health!

P.S. We thought the special dinner was a nice touch and

the food was excellent!

At first I was walking to the ER and noticed the [Urgent Care]

sign in front. I was extremely happy to see this service now

available: less expensive, less waiting and use of ER time that

could be spent on emergency care. I was having a reaction to

a bee sting and felt I couldnt wait until Monday. I was in and

out in much less time. Thank you!

Recognition from theState of Minnesota

On behalf of the

Governors cabinet, I

would like to thank you

and your staff for hosting

the Health Cabinet at

your facility. Winona

Health is the benchmark

for Health Information

Technology (HIT) in

Minnesota. I commend

you and your organization

for the outstanding work.

As we see more facilities

moving [toward

implementation of HIT],

there is a roadblock that

many have not been able

to accomplish: interconnectivity. Winona Health has done this

and Minnesotas care facilities need to look to you as

the leader.

Winona Healths accomplishments show the State of

Minnesota that we can have an interoperable HIT system.

We look forward to working with you as you lead the way to

the 21st Century health care system.
