In December 2012, March of Dimes selected Women s Hospital to receive its Quality Improvement Service Package which helps hospitals reduce medically unnecessary (elective) inductions and cesarean deliveries scheduled before 39 weeks of pregnancy. Women s Hospital was one of only two hospitals statewide and 100 nationwide selected. Our percentage of unnecessary early deliveries has been reduced to zero at Women s Hospital, which means that more babies stayed in the womb longer. This is so important for a baby s growth and development, said Ellen Friloux, NMMC administrator for Women and Children s Services. Overall, this project saw a decrease in the proportion of babies born at 37 and 38 weeks and a corresponding increase in the week range during the one-year period studied. The OB/GYN physicians at NMMC are committed to helping babies arrive as safely as possible. It has been shown that babies that make it to 39 weeks or longer have fewer risks than those born prior to that time, said local OB/GYN Ronald Young, M.D., While there will still be babies born prior to 39 weeks for fetal or maternal complications, we hope we can eliminate unnecessary elective deliveries prior to that time.
2 Dr. Foster Retires After 31 Year Career In July 1983 Dr. Jack Foster followed his heart to Tupelo, becoming only the second cardiologist in town. On March 4, he retired to pursue his heart s desire. A 1967 graduate of Hattiesburg High School, he earned a bachelor s degree in chemical engineering from Mississippi State University. He received his medical degree from the University of Mississippi School of Medicine in Jackson, completing an internal medicine residency and cardiology fellowship there as well. At that time NMMC had only one cardiologist and one cardiothoracic surgeon. It seemed like a good opportunity, Dr. Foster said. Back then Tupelo was very similar to Hattiesburg, and it seemed like a good fit. They practiced with the internal medicine group which also included gastroenterologists and pulmonologists, and later became IMA-Tupelo, before striking out with two additional partners several years later as Cardiology Associates of North Mississippi. Their original clinic was in NMMC s East Tower before relocating to Gloster Creek Village in April I feel that I have been able to practice in the golden age of cardiology, Dr. Foster said. There has been tremendous development in technology, and it s amazing to see the advances. Back when I started we didn t specialize in interventional cardiology or electrophysiology everyone was in general cardiology, and we didn t have stents or internal defibrillators to shock the heart. We re doing things now that we would have never dreamed were possible. Dr. Foster believes the challenge now is to change the culture of after-the-fact medicine. We treat people after they already have developed a blockage, he said. Instead, we need to make lifestyle changes Staff members, including these registered nurses who worked with him at Cardiology Associates of North Mississippi, honored Dr. Foster on his last day of work, March 4. to prevent chronic conditions. We, as a culture, aren t as responsible for our own health as we should be. Dr. Foster is grateful for the people he has worked with and those he has treated over the years. It s pretty amazing to be in one place for 31 years, he said. I have enjoyed getting to know my patients and their families, and sometimes I ve treated two or three generations. The relationships are very special. In retirement he s looking forward to spending more time with family, which includes Dana, his wife of 44 years. They have four children son Owen in Tupelo; son Duncan in Gulfport; daughter Leigh and husband Kyle in Charlotte, N.C.; and daughter Kendall and husband Will in Guntersville, Ala. He also plans to spoil his six grandchildren three in Charlotte and three in Guntersville. His days will be filled with more fishing and gardening, along with activities at First United Methodist Church and volunteering at Helping Hands Food Pantry. March 14, 2014 Page 2
