Combined, Hedrick and Wright Memorial employ over 500 staff, including 146 employees who have graduated from NCMC.

Dr. Klaver shared about the campaign initiatives and the partnership that has grown stronger over the years. “Hedrick Medical Center, Wright Memorial Hospital, and Saint Luke’s Health System have been key partners with NCMC for many years. Our Nursing and Allied Health programs have been and

continue to be a major supplier of the workforce for both providers in the nucleus of our service region”, Commented Klaver. “The generosity demonstrated by their collective financial and professional commitments to the college is nothing short of outstanding. It is simply a ‘win-win’ relationship of which we are happy and honored to be a part.”

BJC HealthCare, Saint Luke's Health System Sign Letter of Intent

BJC HealthCare of St. Louis (“BJC”) and Saint Luke's Health System of Kansas City (“Saint Luke’s”) recently announced they have signed a non-binding letter of intent to form an integrated, academic, Missouri-based health system capable of expanding health care access to high-quality patient care for more than six million residents in Missouri and beyond. The letter of intent was unanimously approved by both health systems’ Boards of Directors.

BJC and Saint Luke’s will form a patient-centric integrated health care system advancing emerging and innovative models of care. Together, they will enhance the quality, access to, and affordability of patient care, while improving health and reducing health disparities in the communities they serve.

With approximately $10 billion in revenue, the organizations are coming together to advance their vision of becoming the premier Midwest destination for patient care, clinical research and medical education and the region’s most exceptional place to work and practice medicine. The health systems, which operate the top three hospitals in Missouri according to U.S. News & World Report, serve distinct geographic markets.

“Together with Saint Luke’s, we have an exciting opportunity to reinforce our commitment to providing extraordinary care to Missourians and our neighboring communities,” said

BJC HealthCare President and Chief Executive Officer Richard Liekweg.

“Amid the rapidly changing health care landscape, this is the right time to build on our established relationship with Saint Luke’s. With an even stronger financial foundation, we will further invest in our teams, advance the use of technologies and data to support our providers and caregivers, and improve the health of our communities. These are opportunities that we can better achieve together. I am confident that BJC and Saint Luke’s together will be even better positioned to extend our legacy of clinical discovery and deliver medical breakthroughs well into the future.”

“Both Saint Luke’s and BJC have well-established reputations for delivering exceptional care and elevating the health of the people we serve,” said Saint Luke’s Health System President and Chief Executive Officer Melinda L. Estes, MD. “Our integrated health system, with complementary expertise and team of world-class physicians and caregivers, will set a new national standard for medical education and research. Through our decade-long relationship as a member of the BJC Collaborative, we’ve established mutual trust and respect, so the opportunity to come together as a single integrated system that can accelerate innovation to better serve patients is a logical next

NCMC Honors Asian American and Pacific Islander Students

In honor of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage (AAPI) Month, North Central Missouri College spotlights students Anna Chen and Lute Vaiangina. Both students are enrolled at NCMC and plan to continue their education at NCMC next year.

Anna’s nationality is Chinese American, and her hometown is Cameron. Anna, a Missouri A+ scholarship program recipient, just completed her first year at NCMC and plans to enroll in the nursing PN program.

Anna is involved in Student Support Services, Residence Life, and First Gen Club. Her favorite class is Human Physiology with Annette Pool. Anna said, “I enjoy the way Instructor Pool teaches. I enjoy science, and she is also passionate about science. She’s

been very helpful during my first year at NCMC.” Anna chose NCMC because it is not far from home, affordable, and she was able to utilize the Missouri A+ Scholarship program. Anna said, “I like that NCMC is a smaller college. I’m shy; having NCMC be small helped me more easily make friends and meet people.

About her heritage, Anna said, “My favorite traditions about my heritage are Chinese New Year and Lunar New Year. It’s really festive; like Christmas, but better. The red packets are fun and cheerful.”

When asked how she shares her culture with others, Anna said, “I talk about my heritage with my friends, like how I was raised and the traditions I participated in. Everyone at

NCMC is very accepting and super nice. It’s great here!”

Lute’s nationality is Tongan from the island of Tonga. Lute recently completed her first semester at NCMC and her first time going to college. Lute plans to enroll in the nursing program next year. Lute moved to the United States in December and enrolled in the spring. Her favorite

thing about NCMC is the Tutoring Center. Lute said, “There are many things at NCMC that help students. I always find help when I need it from the instructors to the library staff. Everyone takes time to help you with what you need and is really friendly.”

About her heritage, Lute said, “I enjoy that our Tonga king raised our country, kingdom, and people to the hand of God to protect us. In our county, it is a law that Sunday is a Sabbath, and everything is closed. It’s nice to slow down and attend church as the day’s only priority. I enjoy that my heritage emphasizes our culture and respect for each other. Because of how I was raised, I know that wherever I go, I will survive because I know God. It is tough in America, but I know God will protect me.” Lute shares her culture with others by giving presentations in class about her culture, identity, and the language she uses. Lute said, “Everyone has love and respect for one another at NCMC. I enjoy the way everyone is willing to help one another.”

The month of May celebrated Asian American Pacific Islander Heritages (AAPI). This broad term encompasses Melanesia, Micronesia, Polynesia, and most countries in Asia comprised of roughly 50 ethnic groups, speaking upwards of 100 languages from at least 40 different countries.

Boyd Joins Scripted Healthcare Team

Casey Guernsey, CEO of Scripted Healthcare, recently announced the addition of Mazzie Boyd to the Scripted Healthcare team. “I am thrilled to welcome Representative Boyd to our organization. She is a top quality hardworking, and dedicated public servant,” said Guernsey. Mazzie will be the organization's Business Manager and will be involved in managing the in-home program as well as billing insurance for consumers needing medical equipment. “I believe Mazzie’s work ethic and character is exactly the right fit for our organization as we strive to provide abundant hospitality to anyone needing access to both medical equipment and their ability to stay in their own home.”

“I am very excited to help expand the reach of Scripted Healthcare to Northwest Missouri where there is a serious need for such important services,” said Boyd. “I believe in the mission of this organization and feel very strongly that many people will benefit from its programs here at home. Healthcare in general is complicated for people to navigate and Scripted’s mission is to provide access to necessary equipment, both new and recycled.”

Guernsey founded Scripted Healthcare five years ago with the goal of processing quality donated medical equipment to people in need as well as helping people stay in their own homes by providing self-directed in-home service. With this program, people who qualify can select anyone they like to help with basic tasks - which oftentimes is all the difference they need to stay out of nursing homes. “I believe our program is one of the best programs in the country and our organization is the highest paying agency in Missouri at $15 an hour,” Guernsey said.

Representative Boyd will work in Northwest Missouri to develop new partners and networks to expand program services. “We see people go without necessary medical equipment because the cost is frequently prohibitive,” said Boyd. “Scripted Healthcare’s Accessibility Medical Equipment division is a one-of-a-kind Medicare certified organization, as nobody else runs a recycling program in the entire region and there are virtually no providers of new equipment, which we also provide. What is exciting about the in-home program here at Scripted is that we see people who just need a few hours of help a week get to remain in their homes and stay out of an institution. Access Personal Care provides services to individuals from the Ozarks all the way up to the Iowa line.

"It is my goal to have an office in Bethany, very soon, as I have purchased a building there. The addition of Mazzie to our team gets us one step closer to making that a reality,” said Guernsey. For more information visit accesspersonalcare.org or accessibilitymedicalequipment.org

EVs gain on gas vehicles

Electric vehicles will hit 40% of global new vehicle sales by 2030 as cost, refueling time, travel range and charging stations will make them comparable to combustion vehicles in just two years, according to new research. Even with huge growth predicted in a paper by Morningstar analysts, sales will struggle to reach levels sought by governments as they seek to boost EV sales to cut greenhouse gas emissions In the European Union, for instance, all new vehicles sold must be zero emissions by 2035. Fuel economy regulations proposed in the U.S. would require up to two-thirds of new vehicle sales to be electric by 2032

Morningstar says people bought 8 million EVs worldwide last year. That s expected to reach 40 million in 2030 EVs should reach “cost and functional” parity with gas vehicles in about two years Analysts calculated cost of ownership by including purchase price, refueling, maintenance and insurance. They also looked at range per charge versus a tank of gasoline — about 300 miles Around a third of EVs can achieve that on one charge, with about 60% hitting 250. Morningstar expects enough chargers to be in place in two years to support EV growth.

“Love, the Test”

By Nevin Curtis Pastor of South Evans Christian Church

Several years ago singer, songwriter Tina Turner sang a song entitled

“What's Love Got to do

With It”. We know that love should have everything to

A Word From...

by the Trenton Ministerial Alliance

do with it, but it is easy to dismiss love when it becomes a test of who we are.

In John 15:13, Jesus tells His disci-ples and us, “Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.” Does that sound like an emotion to you?

Love can be a test some-

times, can't it? The Bible says we should love one another. Don't you find that hard to do in certain situations? Be truthful with your self, I know if it is hard for me it must be hard for others. I'm not sure if I am growing more intolerant, or perhaps I have grown in speaking my mind. Perhaps both.

I believe there are three main tests of love shown to us in the Bible. Notice none of these are a test of God's love for us, rather mans love of one another and for God.

First, we find that Love is the test of true discipleship. It seems obvious that one should have a love for someone if they were going to be a disciple. Jesus tells

us in John 13:35, “By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

Secondly, love is the test of genuine service. Look what Jesus said to Simon in John 21:16, “Again Jesus said, ‘Simon son of John, do you really love me?’ He answered, ‘Yes Lord, you know that I love you.’ Jesus said, ‘take care of my sheep.’”

Thirdly, love is a test of speech. 1 Corinthians 13:1 says “If I speak in the tongues of men and angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.” I like speaking with others that can convey their thoughts without having to use profane or useless language.
