SCR Receives K-HEN Grant
for Staff Education and Development to Implement
an ICU Delirium Treatment and Prevention Program.
S
t. Claire Regional will be receiving a K-HEN grant
in the amount of $8000 for implementation of an
educational program to prepare the nursing staff for
care of patients in the ICU that may suffer from ill effects
of being on mechanical ventilation. Four of the staff
will be going to Vanderbilt Medical Center in Nashville,
Tennessee to learn about order set and treatment of ICU
delirium. The need for such was identified by Courtney
Hollingsworth, RN, SCR Nurse Manager and Sister Judi
Lambert, SND, BCC, Director Mission/Pastoral care.
Dr. Freda Kilburn, SCR Nursing Practice Consultant
was the primary grant writer. A guest educator from
Vanderbilt will be invited to SCR for a one day workshop
for the clinical staff. The plan is for the entire program be
developed and fully implemented by April, 2014.
Donna Meador, RN, MSN, CENP, K-HEN Project
Director said, “We are very appreciative of your planned
work to reduce harm that impacts several different areas
–falls, VAE, etc.! We felt that your project was very well
written and planned. We are very excited for your project
to get started, and can’t wait to hear your progress.”
Last month, Courtney and Freda gave a poster
presentation in the hospital cafeteria and started a
required one hour session for all nursing staff to become
knowledgeable of the fall program. Congratulations to
Countney, Sr. Judi and Freda for their hard work and
commitment to SCR and to the patients that we serve.

Breakfast
with Santa
Submitted by Terri Winkleman and Barbara Davis
W
ith sleigh bells jingling,
Santa Claus once
again visited SCR for
EMPACT’S annual Breakfast with
Santa on Saturday, December 7th.
With wide eyes and excited smiles,
over 100 children sat on Santa’s knee,
promised him that they had been good
and told him what they wanted for
Christmas.
While they waited for their turn, the
families also enjoyed a complimentary
breakfast that included sausage
biscuits, doughnuts, doughnut holes,
juice and milk. Santa passed out candy
canes and stockings the kids could
color. The stockings had all kinds of
goodies for the kids inside such as
crayons, a stuffed elf toy, candy and
clementines. The day also happened
to be National Cotton Candy Day and
cotton candy was available for the kids
to take home and enjoy.
Free photos with Santa are available
by contacting Barb Davis at extension
7621 or via email at bldavis@st-claire.
org. All photos are also available on
the SCR intranet under EMPACT
events.
EMPACT would like to thank Santa
and all of his elves as well as the
Citizen’s Bank for donating the use
of their cotton candy machine and
supplies. If you would like to become
involved with EMPACT please contact
the group’s president, Angel Beamon,
at 7599 or angel.beamon@st-claire.org.

…the free gift of God is eternal life
through Christ Jesus our Lord…
Romans 6:23
T
his Christmas season we want
to consider the greatest gift of
love… the gift of Jesus Christ. A gift
so precious, so costly, so huge, so
unimaginably extravagant that we
cannot comprehend such LOVE.
It is a LOVE that is bigger
than our minds can grasp.
God the Father, Who is
LOVE – loved us so much
that He gave His Only
Begotten Son – a gift of
life, salvation, deliverance,
healing, reconciliation
and restoration, to give
us eternal life. How
great is our God…How
great is His LOVE for
us. Merry Christmas
to you all!

The Morehead State University
Tuba & Euphonium Ensemble
Comes to St. Claire Regional
The MSU Symphonic Tuba & Euphonium Ensemble put
on a remarkable Christmas show in SCR’s main lobby on
Wednesday, Dec. 5. A small crowd watched as the tuba
ensemble played everyone’s favorite Christmas tunes to
perfection, including “Silent night,” “The Grinch,” “Joy to the
World,” “Jingle Bells” and “Hark the Herald Angels Sing.” At
one moment, the MSU Tuba band director, Dr. Stacy Baker,
handed out sleigh bells to the children and other spectators,
who danced and jingled along with “Jingle Bells.” The group
of 16 Tubas made a very diverse, low-pitched, but beautiful
sound that could be heard throughout the hospital. The
performance that ended on the classic, “Merry Christmas,”
lasted about 30 minutes and was a great success that put every
listener into the Christmas spirit.
