View From The Horizon

Quality HealthcareClose to Home

Rod Boula, Ron McAlpine,Chief Executive Officer Board Chair

The January 17, 1917 edition of the Calais Advertiser included a simple and concise story about Dr. Walter Miner and the new business he had opened the week prior – the Calais Hospital. While many things have changed about Calais and the surrounding areas in the last century, upon reading the article on the opening of the Calais Hospital, it is appar-ent that some things are timeless in this area and have stayed very much the same.

Dr. Miner opened his hospital and pledged that patients would not be turned away on account of inability to pay – just as Calais Regional Hospital operates today. He also relied on the generosity of community members to assist with the purchase of equipment and furnishings - as also occurs today. The hospital recruits locally and outside of the area to ensure quality staff is available to care for your family and neighbors, as Dr. Miner did. An abundant array of services is available locally now, as it was then, from the basics, such as lab and xray, to complex surgeries and emergency care. The community utilizing the hospital services and supporting the organization is still integral to the success and longevity of the hospital, just like it was in 1917.

A century ago, a vision for health care in our community was devel-oped. Today, Calais Regional Hospital continues on with this vision providing high quality care to Eastern Washington County residents right here at home. Over 200 medical and other professionals, aided by the latest science and technology, care for almost 1000 inpatient stays and over 300,000 outpatient encounters each year. Hospital staff treat pa-tients in their homes, at the hospital and in the office.

We would like to thank our employees, medical staff, board members and volunteers for their tireless efforts this year. We want to especially thank our patients for trusting us to meet your health care needs locally. We hope you find this report informative and helpful in providing some insight about the hospital.

Working Together To Serve Our CommunitiesCalais Regional Hospital has been providing healthcare for Eastern Wash-

ington County for many decades. Our dedication to the communities we serve extends beyond the medical services we provide. CRH takes part in a variety of health fairs and community events to provide health education and support for many organizations. Our hospital considers it an honor to be a part of our community and our staff takes part in many ways - by serving on local boards and organizations, staffing events, providing services and supplying in kind goods to name a few. Serving the community is very important to CRH.

CRH teams support local community awareness events. CRH is regularly a part of the WCCC Polar Dip and has been represented at the Relay for Life since it began in 1998.

CRH employees participate in health fairs, workplace education days and flu clinics across our service area.

Hospital staff volunteer time for planning and staffing at the Peanut Fair to benefit a local Parent Teacher Group.

CRH staff worked jointly with WCCC and NMCC for two years to bring an RN program to Calais. The first student day in the Fall of 2017 was exciting for all involved!

CRH invests in staying prepared for emergencies. In 2017 many staff took part in eme Training.

CRH coordinated events such as the Health and Wellness Fair and Pink Zone Basketball Game to promote health awareness and provide access to preventative screenings and vaccines.
