INVESTING IN THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF POTTSTOWN

-

Enhancing the quality of our care to improve the quality of your life — this is our commitment to Pottstown. That’s why we invest any profits we generate back into our people, our hospital, our technology, and our community. With $11 million reinvested in the past 12 months and $7 million planned for the upcoming year, we’re strengthen­ing nearly every aspect of your care by:

• Raising the quality of your care with advanced technology, including 3D mammograph­y, state-of-theart radiology and operating room equipment — plus a new pulmonary rehabilita­tion program

• Implementi­ng a robust electronic medical record system that connects all of your health informatio­n across Tower Health providers — enabling more informed clinical decisions and improved outcomes along with convenient access to your health informatio­n 24/7

• Elevating your comfort as a patient through facility enhancemen­ts, including new patient beds as well as renovation­s to stairwells and elevators

• Offering health and wellness resources and support in our community, like Operation Backpack®, as well as partnershi­ps with Alvernia University and Gwynedd Mercy University — providing nursing students with hands-on clinical experience

• Sponsoring and supporting local events and organizati­ons including the Foundation for Pottstown Education, TriCounty Health Council, the Pottstown YMCA, and many others

• Understand­ing and acting on Pottstown’s health priorities by bringing together local health, government, religious, higher education, minority, and low-income representa­tives for our 2019 Community Health Needs Assessment — with results publicly available by July 2019, and the implementa­tion plan publicly available by November 2019
