HURLEY FACTS SCHOOL OF NURSING In 1909, Hurley Hospital Training School of Nurses began a diploma program. The first students were not required to have a high school diploma. In 1912, the first nurses’ home was built and the first year students graduated from Hurley Nurses Training School. By 1913, the school began to make changes.

Completion of at least the eighth grade became a requirement for admission. Echoing the expanded knowledge base required of incoming nursing students, in 1932 Hurley School of Nursing added high school graduation as an admission requirement.

HOUSE DIRECTO Craig Bishop, Lawanna Stewart, Roy Garcia

Laura Sorys

My favorite part of being in this role is the opportunity it gives me to work with so many people in the hospital. I enjoy the challenge of brainstorming to solve the hospital’s daily problems such as staffing and roadblocks to patient flow.

-Laura Sorys, House Director

Lawanna Stewart, Craig Bishop, Roy Garcia 6 • HURLEY MEDICAL CENTER

TEAM THEseason SEASON team OF of the

RS The House Directors are Hurley’s Team of the Season. Laura Sorys, RN, was interviewed for this article but all the team members are being recognized--Laura Sorys, Craig Bishop, Don Duvan, Roy Garcia, Jeri Middleton and Bryan Welch, as well as office support, Lawanna Stewart and Bianca Weierstahl.

Welcome to the hub of the hospital. “House Directors” play quarterback, perform air traffic control and whatever other metaphor one might use to describe the person(s) in the center ring responsible for helping keep Hurley ready to care for the needs of our patients. There are six House Directors ensuring that there is at least one person here for 24/7 coverage. Scheduling takes up a large part of a House Director’s job. They set the schedule for nurses working on the floor and make sure all gaps in coverage are filled during nights, weekends and holidays. They also coordinate last-minute staff shortages. For example, when a nurse calls in sick, the House Director must find a replacement.

House Directors not only allocate staff within departments, deciding how many nurses should work at a given time based on our census, but do so while maintaining a high-standard of care. This not only entails getting the patient into the unit that is appropriate for the level of care they need, but also may require moving patients from room to room or opening up additional units as necessary. House Directors also closely monitor the emergency department and flow of patients throughout Hurley, collecting data and making recommendations about any additional resources that are needed.

House Directors must also be able to manage and assign staff based on their credentials. They assist nursing staff with any concerns they are experiencing and on after hour shifts, assist patients who have issues—working to resolve immediate patient complaints. House Directors respond to all codes when they are called. They report each morning on census and various issues during the virtual “Safety Huddles.”

They provide assistance at other meetings and may coordinate them. They help staff connect with physicians or other staff for various matters or when there is the need for additional assistance. House Directors act as a manager in the absence of unit managers.

TEAM OF THE SEASON

What is a day like for a House Director?

Laura explains: “My day begins by receiving a sign out from the previous House Director. Our sign out primarily includes discussing the staffing of each unit, going over the bed board and discussing patients that need to be admitted or need to be transferred to a different level of acuity. We also pass on information about unique circumstances, such as giving the oncoming House Director a heads up about a difficult situation that occurred on the previous shift that has the potential to spill over into the upcoming shift. This can be regarding patients, patient family members or even staff dynamics. We spend a large amount of time rounding on all the different units as well.” She explains, "relatively speaking, a House Director is a bed facilitator and staffing director who makes certain there is appropriate staffing and that the needs for patient bed placement are met. It’s a multifaceted role.

Don DuVan, Laura Sorys

The current team consists of some very dedicated individuals and together they make up one of the strongest House Director groups that I have seen at Hurley since I have been here. I don’t think that everyone realizes the amount of work and responsibility that this team takes on daily. The House Director role is key in staffing the hospital and keeping patient flow moving. They are the captain of the ship during times when other leaders are off or not available. Their professionalism, as well as their ability to build relationships, makes them excel in their roles and worthy of the being picked as the Team of the Season.

-Jeff Overman, Senior Administrator, Nursing/Chief Nurse

Craig Bishop, Bianca Weierstahl, Roy Garcia, Bryan Welch

The Team of the Season Award is our way of recognizing the teamwork that is so important at Hurley in assisting the fulfillment of our mission of “Clinical Excellence, Service to People”.

Teams are awarded this recognition based on their demonstration of a collaborative spirit, mutual accountability, support to others, fulfillment of Hurley’s mission and overall positive attitude.

HURLEY YOU

FACILITIES MA Facilities Management is responsible for maintaining our facility including our main campus and our offsite locations, both the physical buildings and grounds. There are many responsibilities required to maintain our campus. They work to manage operations and reduce costs, but also provide services, amenities and technology that contributes to an exceptional workplace environment.

The team are excellent critical thinkers and put their skills to use every day, as they find solutions to an array of challenges or issues that arise. From a broken-down HVAC on a hot July morning to an expected plumbing issue, Facilities Management must act swiftly to avoid a disruption in services. But, have no fear, as this team knows just what to do!

Kenneth Thompson, Christopher Voydanoff

Facilities Management employs a wide range of experienced and skilled workers that continually go above and beyond their daily duties to ensure a safe comfortable working and healing environment. Facilities Management works together as a team to manage and coordinate projects for construction, renovation and ongoing infrastructure upgrades.

The team consists of carpenters, electricians, groundskeepers, HVAC technicians, maintenance mechanics, painters, plumbers, office staff and an interior architectural designer.

HURLEY YOU

ANAGEMENT Facilities Management maintains equipment on a scheduled basis to identify and prevent problems before they result in equipment failure. There are multiple monthly Life Safety inspections performed, such as fire extinguishers and exit signs. There are a lot of moving parts to keep this facility running smooth, from generator testing, door repair, boiler inspections, elevator repairs, bed repairs, chiller repairs, lighting replacement and, of course, painting and finishing updates. But, this team is probably best known for all their service work.

Every day brings unpredictable situations and challenges, which means as a facility management team member, they must be able to think on their feet. All of us here benefit from this team having a vast skill set and years of experience that gives them the ability to take on all challenges, tasks and situations whether anticipated or unexpected.

Facilities Management can be contacted 24/7 through their Work Order request link located on the Hurley Intranet Welcome Page, and by email or by phone. They will respond to any facility-related work request in a timely manner; ready to help.

Teamwork has built the department into what it is today. They recognize that their attitude affects staff, patients and visitors, and that they leave impressions with all they encounter. Facilities Management is working on new ideas and hitting goals to keep our facility running smoothly and efficiently.

So here’s to you, Facilities Management, for keeping our facilities safe, healthy, and amazing!

Chaz Headrick

"We are fortunate to have such a well-rounded Facilities department - to a staff member we are always willing to step in and help in whatever way we can. A term we like to use in the department is flexible, as you never know what may be waiting for you or what unique request we may receive. I am proud to be a part of the team we have built and all we have accomplished. I am looking forward for many more years to come.

HURLEY YOU

GRADUATE MEDI If you are working in clinical settings at Hurley, you probably see a special type of physician known as a resident (or a fellow), sometimes with workstations on wheels, or WOWs. As a teaching hospital, Hurley has >100 physicians in residency-training programs sponsored by Hurley and another 200 or so who visit Hurley for training rotations each year. They provide 24-hour/7-days-per-week coverage to care for Hurley patients across most units and are fully credentialed before they start. (See the next page to find out more about the type of clinical providers - including resident physicians - who you may see at Hurley.)

Hurley Chief Academic Officer Jim Buterakos said Hurley residency programs are helpful to the hospital.

“Residency programs provide the sponsoring institution - in this case Hurley - with 24-hour physician coverage and maintain high-quality patient care by having teaching faculty on staff,” he said. “Residency programs also benefit Hurley by bringing in full-time medical specialists who would not be here without these teaching and scholarly opportunities.”

Affiliated with Michigan State University, University of Michigan, and other colleges and universities, Hurley provides a range of clinical experiences to physicians in training, as well as to about 1,200 other students in health professions each year. Some of Hurley educational rotations are unavailable anywhere else in the region - and also provide access to a diverse patient mix for greater learning opportunities. Since 1919, Hurley has trained more than 3,000 physicians through its own residency-training programs.

16 • HURLEY MEDICAL CENTER

Hurley resident physicians and fellows are also Hurley employees and care for a majority of Hurley patients in the inpatient setting.

With an academic year of July 1 through June 30, residents usually are assigned to 4-week rotations. Each rotation may take place in a different unit or in a different medical specialty.

For example, residents may spend 4 weeks in ICU, then 4 weeks on their specialty’s “floor,” then 4 weeks in an outpatient clinic setting, etc.

So the first time they’re on a particular rotation, they’re “new,” whether that is in July or in November.

Resident physicians require direct or indirect supervision from attending physicians for most of their work, with exceptions listed on the Hurley Intranet Welcome Page at the link, Resident Supervision & Roster

DID YOU KNOW?

GME (Graduate Medical Education) is often confused with CME (Continuing Medical Education).

•

GME provides education to those who have graduated from medical school and are now training in order to become independent physicians in a certain specialty.

•

CME offers continuing education and training to providers, such as those listed in the sidebar, who need to maintain their training for licensure. CME mostly focuses on physicians who have already completed their residency-training.

•

At Hurley, both the GME office and the CME office are located on 10W.

PROVIDERS

What is a provider vs a resident physician vs an attending physician?

Providers are licensed health-care professionals who provide medical care or treatment to patients. Here are some types of providers who work at Hurley.

•

Supporting GME services staff • Research Manager Jenny LaChance • Editorial/Research Assistant Jason Harrod • Library Director Jennifer Godlesky Oversight of residency programs • Hurley: The Hurley GME Committee, consisting of program directors, resident physicians, community physicians, the DIO, manager of academic affairs, director of quality and patient safety, chief medical officer, research manager, assistant dean of the Flint Campus of MSU College of Human Medicine, and a representative from the Medical Staff Committee.

• Nationwide: Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education, which sets standards for the clinical learning environment, staffing, and education.

GME program seasons • June: Graduation for about 40 senior residents and fellows • June: Orientation for about 40 incoming residents and fellows • July: New residents begin; junior residents become supervising senior residents • Fall & winter: Interviewing season for medical students applying to residency programs • March: Resident Match Week occurs (Residency programs are notified of which people “matched” to their programs) • Spring: Onboarding of new residents begins

•

•

•

•

•

•

Attending physicians are supervising physicians who have already completed at least one residency and also may have completed fellowships for advanced expertise. In Michigan, graduation from a residency program is required to practice medicine independently.

Resident physicians are licensed doctors who are training in a specialty, such as pediatrics or obstetrics and gynecology, under the supervision of attending physicians.

Fellow physicians have completed their training in their specialty (with some exceptions) and are now training in a subspecialty, such as trauma surgery.

Medical psychology fellows are postdoctoral trainees; they have already earned a doctoral degree and are furthering their training at Hurley, but they are not physicians (unless they also have a medical degree).

Medical students are in medical school and become licensed physicians upon graduation and passage of licensing exams. Their white coats are shorter than residents' white coats. In their senior year, they apply for residency positions around the country.

PAs (Physician Associates), NPs (Nurse Practitioners), and midwives, aka "midlevels," who provide advanced care, such as treating illnesses, prescribing medications, etc. They work closely with attending physicians. PA and NP students from universities across the country rotate at Hurley. Direct or indirect supervision is required for student PAs and NPs. Visiting residents are licensed physicians in a residency training program outside of Hurley and, through an agreement between their institution and Hurley, are rotating for 1 or more blocks at Hurley as part of their educational experience.

CAMP EASY BREATHERS What a worry-free, adventure-filled Camp Easy Breathers week! YMCA Camp Copneconic was where the adventure took place for a group of children with asthma.

Every child deserves to enjoy camp regardless of their medical conditions. With 24 hour on-site medical staff, campers were able to enjoy swimming, archery, hiking, zip lining, fishing and many more outdoor activities. Hurley Respiratory Therapist, Michelle Cox, organized the camp with generous funding from the Hurley Foundation. Special thanks to Hurley's very own Dr. Gwendolyn Reyes who volunteered her nights to staff the camp.

Camp Copneconic counselors were outstanding with the Easy Breathers.

If you are interested in camp please call Hurley Asthma Center at 810-262-2130.

An Average American eats almost 70 quarts of popcorn every year, and Americans consume approximately 17.3 billion quarts of popcorn annually! That is a lot of popcorn!

In the 1800s, Americans consumed popcorn as a breakfast cereal. This meal consisted of popcorn with milk and sweetener.

Christopher Columbus allegedly introduced popcorn to the Europeans in the late 15th century.

VOLUNTEER OF THE QUARTER

VOLUNTEER OF THE

MURIETTA PARKER

In the heart of Hurley Medical Center, where compassion meets commitment, one name stands out among the many who dedicate their time and energy to making a difference: Murietta Parker. Recently honored as "Volunteer of the Quarter" by her peers, Murietta’s unwavering dedication to helping others has made her an invaluable asset to our community since she first began volunteering in 2017 in both the GI Lab and the Cath Lab at Hurley.

With a spirit that shines as brightly as her smile, Murietta exemplifies what it means to be a true volunteer. For six years, she has selflessly dedicated herself to supporting patients, their families and staff alike. Whether it’s providing a warm greeting, or simply assisting with navigation through the hospital, Murietta approaches every task with a heart full of compassion and enthusiasm. That unwavering reliability—much like the postman who delivers through rain, sleet, or snow—is a testament to her commitment and passion for service.

Her colleagues describe her as a beacon of positivity, someone who can light up a room with her energy. “Murietta has an incredible ability to connect with people,” said a fellow volunteer. “She brings not just her knowledge and skills, but also a warmth that makes everyone feel at ease.” This powerful combination of professionalism and empathy is what makes Murietta such a cherished member of the Hurley team.

Murietta’s journey into volunteering began as a way to give back to her community, but it quickly turned into a fulfilling passion that enriches her life and the lives of those around her. She often shares that her motivation comes from the simple yet profound realization that she has the power to positively impact someone’s day, especially during challenging times in the hospital.
