The Desimone Levee on the Green River failed and is under repair. The hospital is above the flood zone and currently in no danger of flooding. We evacuated our Time Square and Kent Station Clinics and our Lind Avenue locations. Several locations are experiencing staffing issues due to severe traffic impacts. Impacted patients are being contacted to reschedule appointments. Please be safe, do not drive or walk through standing water, and call 9-1-1 if you need emergency evacuation assistance.

Coaching Classes for VMC Providers: Communication, Resilience and Well-Being

9/9/2021
Author: Matt Mulder, MD, SVP, Chief Medical Director, Ambulatory Services

These classes are open to all medical staff, and are being conducted virtually by Wallace Wilkins, Ph.D. VMC has had a number of engagements with Dr. Wilkins, and our experience with him has always been good. Wally is great at providing insight into why we do what we do and is good at providing simple to use tools to help us improve in communication areas where we have challenges.

Class 1: Navigating Change, Turmoil, Surprises & Setbacks with Resilience | Sep. 14 at 7:00 AM | via Zoom

Change and turmoil provide opportunities for advancement—if you know how to navigate. In this seminar, you’ll identify a simple, mindful formulation to deal with any situation gracefully. Prevent burn-out—or even getting crispy. By identifying and practicing fresh perspectives, you can engage change, reduce negativity and move on to greater success.
