2011 in Review

Much has been accomplished this year and our contributors deserve all of the credit. None of this would happen without them. St. Luke's Hospital, Crosby Clinic, and St. Luke's Community Foundation would like to take a look back at the year and shed light on all you, our donors, have helped us accomplish.
The Crosby Clinic has moved from their downtown location to a new facility located on the St. Luke's Medical Complex. This facility has been a blessing to all who work or come to St. Luke's Medical Complex. It has been beneficial to the ease of access to care that is so important in today's healthcare, as well as make St. Luke's Hospital and Clinics more efficient and patient-friendly. Along with the Crosby Clinic moving to the medical complex, St. Luke's Hospital underwent major renovations that are almost completed! With the renovations came a new layout to improve the quality of care we give our patients.

St. Luke's Hospital has also added a new emergency center with an ambulance garage attached. This was in major part to a donation given by Continental Resources and their affiliates. The Torgeson Family Learning Center is now open and operational in the basement of the facility. This room is beautiful and spacious and can be used for meetings, dinners, training, and anything else you can imagine! A therapy pool designed for aquatic therapy has been installed and is awaiting completion early in the 2012 year, we are very excited about the possibilities and new therapy we will be able to give our patients.

The Foundation Board has been working tirelessly to add an additional six units to Northern Lights Villa under the management of Jean Nygaard and Jean Sedo. The units have helped make senior housing more available in a shrinking housing market, while being able to provide more services to elderly popluation. The board has also sold the Crosby Clinic building to Maisey Dental and the Foundation's "Dr. House" is now occupied by a new physician!

St. Luke's is here to meet your needs 24/7/365 and it only takes a moment to step back and envision a community without St. Luke's to realize the importance that it plays in our daily lives. Not only as a healthcare service, but as an employer, friend and family. We want the community of Burke-Divide to enjoy quality healthcare services from a facility they can trust for many years to come!
