In addition, partnerships with local community agencies will be facilitated as part of a diabetes management initiative for high-risk diabetic patients. In 2014, Adena Health System restructured its internal Health & Wellness team to create an evidence-based health and wellness platform by developing and refining programs for health system employees (residents of the service region) that could be implemented on a larger scale in the community. The team successfully created a model built around three components proven to drive improved individual health and wellness: movement; nutrition and wellbeing. The team coordinated programming within these three areas based out of the Adena Regional Medical Center Campus. Programs included a campus based walking program, Weight Watchers at Work, and stress management classes in addition to established offerings including Family Fit and Adena Fit. The programs implemented at the Adena Pike Medical Center campus include the walking program and the Adena Fit programs. Employees at the Pike location are encouraged to engage in the remainder of the programs at Adena Regional Medical Center. A communication plan was built around the programming to ensure effective communication to employees. In addition, a competitive challenge for employees, Move More Adena, was also coordinated to encourage 90 minutes of activity per week, as well as a venue to market other employee health and wellness offerings. The team successfully engaged more than 35% of the total employee population through these initiatives in 2014.

COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) Data Summary As part of the community health needs assessment (CHNA) process, both pr secondary data to identify priority health areas for the Ross County community. Secondary d collected on demographics, socio-economic determinants, disease prevalence, in addition to statistics data. A public survey and focus groups were also conducted to collect primary data health behaviors and environmental factors contributing to poor health. This data was then r health professionals from Pike County to determine health priorities. Figure 4 outlines the p issues prioritized in order as part of the CHNA. Top Causes of Death Heart disease Cancer Accidents and unintentional injuries Chronic lower respiratory diseases Top Health Issues Addiction Mental and behavioral health problems Obesity/diabetes Lung and respiratory issues Infant mortality and child protection Top Health Behavoirs Smoking Lack of physical activity Poor nutrition Limited use of oral and primary care Figure 4: Adena Pike County 2016 Community Health Needs Assessment Findings 5 P age
ADENA COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES Priorities The Adena Health System and the Adena Pike Medical Center utilized the Adena 2016 CHNA to develop a 2016-2019 Implementation Strategies Plan for the Adena Pike Medical Center (AGMC). AGMC is dedicated to ensuring the health system s vision of being instrumental in creating healthy, thriving communities. The findings from the assessment will be aligned and tracked by APMC s Board of Trustees and employees. In addition, it will be shared with local media and APMC s broad community partner base. This will contribute to awareness about Pike County s health priorities and progress in implementing community health improvement strategies. APMC utilized the Adena Pike County CHNA to prioritize the community health programming that will be implemented. Several of the strategies, are based on the successes of the 2013-2016 community health programming. A total of five strategies were identified to address the health needs based on the capability of APMC and participating community agencies to address the issue. Figure 5 outlines the 2016 Pike County community health priorities. Adena Pike Medical Center aligned its community health strategies and programming with the Adena Regional Medical Center CHNA. Although AHS and APMC may not be able to fully address all the needs identified, APMC will contribute to local coalitions and steering committees. This will enable Adena Regional Medical Center to contribute to cross system collaboration, visibility, and health communication. Community health programming will focus on the five areas: addiction; obesity/diabetes; lung and respiratory; mental and behavioral health; and infant mortality and child protection. An analysis, based from the report data was compared to current programming (2013 2016) results to establish programing outlines. Based off of current programming success, Adena Pike Medical Center will utilize five key strategies to address the five health priority areas. These include infrastructure building, advocacy, education, programming and financial support. Infrastructure development (Table 2) will consist of alignment with other, pertinent coalitions (i.e. Pike County Drug Abuse Prevention and developing task force), as well as partnering with other agencies to develop committees that currently do not exist for obesity and diabetes, respiratory and lung, and mental health. In addition, relationships with partners who may be able to provide services or parts of the continuum that are not currently in existence will also be sought. Advocacy will also be a key strategy. Adena Pike Medical Center currently has three employees who serve on the Pike County Health Coalition. Pike County currently has plans to convene a drug task force, which Adena will provide representatives. Adena Pike Medical Center will also utilize the Adena Health System marketing and communications department to create public service announcement around each of the five key health issues that be delivered via local radio, newspaper and the Health System s Facebook and Instagram pages which have more than 11,000 followers. Education is another strategy that will be utilized by Adena Pike Medical Center. The hospital will provide education on each of the five key issues via Walk With a Doc events to be coordinated on a monthly basis in Waverly, Here for Life Education events, as well as bi-yearly health expos. Programming is also another 6 A dena Health System CHNA Implementation Strategies
strategy that will be utilized to address the key community health priorities. Adena s Baby Centered Recovery program delivered at the Adena Regional Medical Center will serve pregnant women with addiction issues from the region, including Pike County. The Adena Family Fit program, operated in partnership with the Pike County YMCA, as well as Adena s Move More Challenge will be offered to address obesity and diabetes related issues. Adena s Quit Clinic and free lung cancer screenings will be offered to assist in addressing the lung and respiratory issues (related to smoking). All primary care physicians of Adena Health System will begin screening patients for depression and mental health issues in 2017 to help address the depression and anxiety in the community. Adena Health System will also provide financial support to a number of programs and initiatives operated by its community partners in Pike County.
