Dear Research Family, As I say farewell to my Research family and Kansas City, I feel so good about where Research is going as a premier health care organization. Our medical staff and leadership teams are so strong. Our employees are committed to our Mission, Vision, and Values. This is an exciting month as we celebrate Nurses Week, Hospital Week and EMS Week. The Culture Committee has planned a lot of fun activities for everyone! See more on pg. 5 May is also Osteoporosis Prevention Month. Did you know there are ways to build strong bones now to prevent future fractures for your parents, grandparents or you? Research offers bone density screening and one of the region’s leading bone health specialists, Matt Bruns. Learn more at researchmedicalcenter.com/ bonehealth. Beginning May 13, John Myers will become your interim CEO, and the entire leadership team will continue to support you. The process for recruiting a new CEO is underway and many of you will have the opportunity to be involved in the process. Keep up the great work! Sincerely,
corrine.everson@hcamidwest.com
