Connecting Lives - Summer 2020

Lives CONNECTING

Summer 2020 Edition

Using virtual support to stay connected

After the first case of COVID-19 was detected in North Dakota and social distancing became a new normal, the Bismarck Cancer Center’s support programs came to a screeching halt leaving a void in the support system designed to provide cancer support for the community. After a couple of weeks without yoga or support groups, the BCC staff put their heads together to find a way to connect with patients and friends.

The answer came in the form of virtual support programs. Like everyone else who has learned about video meetings, conference calls, and other creative ways to connect while staying apart, our programs went online.

What a blessing! The online groups not only connected the regular participants, but it has brought together new attendees from beyond Bismarck/Mandan. With the virtual groups, people

who live in rural areas of North Dakota can connect online where the long drive to attend in person made it hard or impossible to participate in the past.

“We are looking forward to the days when we can all come back together again,” said Marketing Director Sara Kelsch. “This time has shown us new ways to connect, and we are happy to have these opportunities for the community.”

Dear Friends,

The Coronavirus pandemic is genuinely unlike anything we have seen in our lifetime. The virus has spread to nearly every continent on earth, and the number of people affected continues to grow. We can’t turn on a TV, the internet, or the radio without hearing something about its effects. We have canceled many school events, sports seasons, and are at the point that many of us know someone who has spent time quarantined due to exposure or illness.

The challenges we face may feel overwhelming, but I can say that we have the power to overcome the course of current events! We want to extend our Amy Gross Executive Director heartfelt thoughts to all those directly affected by the outbreak of COVID-19.

We also share our sincere gratitude for the compassionate, selfless-workers and neighbors who care for others in need.

I am fortunate to work with a large and diverse team of experienced and dedicated medical professionals and caring staff who are carrying out our mission at the Bismarck Cancer Center under challenging circumstances. Our transition to the’ new normal’ has been seamless with the support of dedicated, collaborative colleagues at both Sanford Health Bismarck and CHI St. Alexius Health. Our top priority is the health and safety of our staff, family members, volunteers, and community partners. The Bismarck Cancer Center has taken all necessary precautions to keep this broader community safe.

During these challenging times, I urge you all to try to find hope in the moment. Find hope in the time spent with your family. Experience joy in the extra time spent in the sunshine or the escape of reading that book that you have not had the time to finish until now. Find time for yourself. In many ways, this challenge could be an opportunity to stop and evaluate what is important to us and how we could improve our lives. I challenge you to show compassion to those around you, provide support to those in need, and believe that when we work together, we are a powerful force of goodness in this world.

With hope, Amy Gross, Executive Director

SUPPORT BEAT ~ HOME CARE

Coping with cancer isn’t easy. Advances in cancer treatment and changes in healthcare have led to shorter hospital stays for those going through treatment and those on their cancer journey often require specialized assistance as they undergo their radiation treatment.

The Bismarck Cancer Center is now providing additional tools for those affected by a cancer diagnosis. The Home Care Program began in the summer of 2019 and provides temporary assistance with daily activities including housekeeping, respite care and snow/lawn care for those patients in the Bismarck/Mandan area while under treatment.

The Home Care Program was established to provide individuals going through treatment at the Bismarck Cancer Center help with daily obstacles and changes that cancer brings to their life. Support Services Manager at the Bismarck Cancer Center, Lolly Dutton, says the feedback from those that have used the program has been positive, “When I talk to patients and give them their Home Care certificate, they are so happy to have the help. I think some patients feel that they have to be really sick to use this program, but it is for ALL those going to BCC for treatment.”

The program includes assistance with light house cleaning, errands, respite care, support care (meal prep, shopping, or companionship), lawn care, or snow removal for individuals who reside in the Bismarck/ Mandan area and are undergoing treatment at the Bismarck Cancer Center. For more information, go to www.bismarckcancercenter.com or call 701-222-6100.

GET TO KNOW YOUR TEAM

Q: I am a 38 year-old woman and am worried about all of the sun damage I’ve sustained over the years. What can I do to prevent skin cancer?

A: The sun is finally shining in North Dakota, but remember to be mindful when you head outside. The American Cancer Society estimates that around 230 people in North Dakota will be diagnosed this year with a cancer that is almost totally preventable – melanoma. Here are some important tips to limit further damage: 1. Limit sun exposure. Seek shade when the sun’s UV rays are the strongest, between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., or plan indoor activities around those times.

2. Apply sunscreen. Use sunscreen that is labeled broad spectrum. This means it covers both types of the sun’s dangerous rays, UVA and UVB rays. Sunscreen also should be at least SPF 30 and water resistant. Apply sunscreen liberally every two hours.

3. Wear protective clothing. This includes a long- sleeve shirt, wide-brim hat and sunglasses. Many companies even sell clothing with built-in ultraviolet protection.

4. Frequent skin screenings. You will need to do a head-totoe exam of your skin. The exam should be done in a well-lit room in front of a full-length mirror. If you find signs of skin cancer during a self-exam, call your healthcare provider.

Remember, moderation can go a long way. Tailor your daily practices to embrace skin cancer prevention.

Dr. cole Kreofsky Since a young age, Dr. Cole Kreofsky felt drawn to the medical field.

Growing up near Rochester, MN, he saw first hand the critical work and tradition of healing and accomplishments at Mayo Clinic, and he feels this is what steered him to a life in medicine.

Dr. Kreofsky has found a home at BCC. He is proud of the dedicated staff and sacrifices made daily to care for our patients. The personal connection and passion staff put forth to take care of patients is what sets the BCC apart from other cancer centers.

When Dr. Kreofsky and his wife are not chasing after their young kids, he enjoys sports, reading, and spending time with family and friends.

tractor trek

The organizers and participants in this year’s Tractor Trek braved the windy weather to make this a successful event. A record 67 tractors made their way through the Veterans Cemetery, the Mandan Airport and Fort Lincoln State Park. Even with the unfavorable weather conditions, participants came out with their tractors and supported the Bismarck Cancer Center Foundation.

BCC worked with Stella’s, a Bismarck boutique, to put on a succulent Mother’s Day fundraiser. People could choose from a variety of succulents from which to order and BCCF received a portion of each sale. In addition, orders could be picked up or delivered by BCC staff.

Over 150 succulents were ordered during this promotion and BCCF received a check for $816.

We are grateful to have Stella’s support.

This event has made it possible for the Cancer Center to continue to provide patient housing, gas cards, spiritual therapy, nutrition counseling, yoga, and much more for those who face this lifethreatening disease.

What each of you has done to support the fight against cancer, here in our community, is remarkable!

The Bismarck Cancer Center was excited to be a recipient of the 4th Annual Mandan Leprechaun Pub Crawl, sponsored by the Bismarck/Mandan Roller Derby Girls and McQuade Distributing.

Over 100 pub crawlers participated in this event, visiting several bars in Mandan. The Bismarck Cancer Center helped with registration and handed out water. This event donated $250 to the Foundation.

Hunting Dakota was one of the first events that helped get the Bismarck Cancer Center Foundation started. This event was spearheaded by Roger Krueger and Jon Hanson and an energetic committee who made this fundraiser incredibly successful for 12 years. Sadly, the committee has decided that last year’s 2019 event was their last hunt.
