It’s Work Besties Wednesday! With studies showing work friendships can significantly enhance not only workdays but life, we recently asked our associates to tell us about their besties and we were overwhelmed with the response. We’re kicking off a series with Laurie and Ashley from Social Work/Case Management. The two collaborate, make each other laugh, can rely on one another for a listening ear on tough days, and motivate each other. “Having this kind of connection with a colleague makes the challenging days feel lighter and the good days even better,” Ashley says. Stay tuned for more dynamic duos, trios, and even a quintet!

Please join us in welcoming this group of new associates, who recently completed their orientation. We love to hear why they chose Thompson. For example, check out what Stephanie said: “I worked here in the past and wanted to come back. The sense of community, high standards, and wonderful benefits drew me back in.” Want to see our latest openings? Visit www.ThompsonHealth.com/Careers

If you want to know how to help or are anxious about having enough food as we head into November, this is a website where you can search for resources by ZIP code. Keep in mind that many communities have small blessing boxes as well, and county public health departments often share information about pop-up food distributions on their social media accounts. https://urmc.info/2dP

Who says Halloween is just for kids? Teams in our M.M. Ewing Continuing Care Center dressed up in themed costumes today, while next door in the hospital, the Finance Department held a Halloween-themed culinary competition, inviting other departments to come cast votes for their favorites. The lucky ones who arrived after noon got to sample the creations!

Here's the latest update on our ongoing hospital renovation project: The H&P (History & Physical Exam) Clinic - where patients go when they have surgery coming up - is temporarily relocating to our Surgical Care Center beginning Thursday, October 30.
Patients will enter through the hospital's Constellation Center and check in for their appointment at the Surgical Care Center main desk in the upper lobby. Directional signage is posted to guide patients, and associates will help guide them as well.
Thank you for your patience as we move through this phase of construction! To learn more about how we are building a healthier future for our community, visit https://urmc.info/2dL

In the spirit of Halloween, three of our nurses dressed up today as K cards, which are a visual method used to initiate conversations and sustain evidence-based practice. They rounded on the hospital floors, prompting smiles and raising awareness as they asked trivia questions about central line-associated bloodstream infections, catheter-associated urinary tract infections, and pressure injuries. From left to right are Clinical Nurse Educator Roni Potter, Director of Infection Prevention Stacey Gibbs, and Wound/Ostomy Nurse Kimberly Mayo. Kudos to this terrific trio for finding a creative way to educate!

Meet some of our newest associates! This group includes Danae, who as a patient has always found our staff "kind and welcoming," and Kyle, who said, "I came here to work as a tech to see if nursing was what I really wanted to do - that was almost 4 years ago and today I start as an RN!" Welcome, all! https://urmc.info/2dG
