THE PROBLEMCancer

The most common forms

of childhood cancer include:

Leukemia, Lymphoma, Brain, and

Bone cancer.

In 2007 10,400 children were diagnosed with cancer in the US, approximately 1,500 of those children died from the disease.1-2 children per 10,00 children in the US are expected to be diagnosed with cancer per year.

Preterm Birth

1 in every 8 babies born in the US is premature.Causes: Spontaneity, to protect the health of the mother and child.Leading cause of infant death.

Eating Disorders

Prevention: Stay Positive Females are most vulnerable to eating

disorders:10-15 % of Anorexia = Male 35% Bulimia

= MaleTypes of disorders:-Anorexia-Bulimia-Binge Eating

Randall Children’s Hospital is

one of the few hospitals in the country

that features a Children's

Eating Disorders Program.

HOW TO ACCESS THE PROGRAMThe hospital is open to the anyone that needs

care.ELIGIBILITY

partial list. Legacy provides eligible uninsured patients with a discount on Legacy charges.

solvent yet.400+ employees were laid off due to the cost of

building the hospital.There are increased financial risks for the hospital

and the children it serves due to cuts to Medicaid.OHSU’s Doernbecher Children’s Hospital is in

competition with Randall.

TEAM OPINIONS

The Children’s Eating Disorders program.Evidence based design of hospital including: having family areas, natural light, a less clinical feel making the facility homey. Resources for the parents, a theater, kitchen, and preventive classes. Outreach programs. 186 million funds to families that need help. Free and low-cost options to families in need.Donated to 175 local organizations. Linked to local organizations.

WHAT WE LIKE

TEAM OPINIONSWHAT WE DON’T LIKE

400+ staff members were laid off due to the construction costs of the hospital. Medicaid funding to the hospital has been cut off. 50% of kids who go there are on Medicaid. As a result kids may not get their needs met. The hospital is in debt and not solvent, yet Randall’s is confident they’ll be okay.We wonder how they will be financially solvent in the next 20 yrs.

HEALTHY PEOPLE 2020Legacy Health is an official

partner in the initiative.

Accordant child and adolescent goals include:

Screening, intervention, child development, community and individual care.

Ways of meeting goals include:

Research, policy implementation, education.
