Duke^ Cabarrus Memorial Launch HeaHh Care Program A child with leukemia who is brought to Cabarrus Memorial Hospital in Concord these days is likely to be examined by a physician from Duke and treated with the most up-to-date drugs available. A woman with a difficult pregnancy who comes to Cabarrus Menrrarial for help will probably be seen by a Duke specialist, who will help her doctor decide how best to handle her pregnancy. And doctors from Cabarrus County are learning about the latest advances in the practice of medicine without having to take time away from their patients to travel to a conference or seminar. All of this is part of a new program launched this summer by Duke and Cabarrus Memorial in an effort to improve and expand health care for the people served by the Concord hospital and provide continuing education for doctors on the hospital staff. The two institutions have signed a one-year affiliation which is designed to lead to a broader long-term arrangement. This could include the channeling of Duke interns, residents and fourth-year medical students, particularly those interested in family practice, through a period of training at Cabarrus Memorial. Cabarrus. Memorial is a 385-bed hospital which serves a population predominantly located in the towns of Concord and Kannapolis. Since the joint venture began in July, about 15 physicians from the Departments of Medicine, Pediatrics, Surgery and Obstetrics-Gynecology at Duke have been commuting the 120 miles to Concord each week for one or two-day visits. Many of these physicians are advanced faculty fellows, doctors who have completed several years of postgraduate training, including at least one year of training in a medical specialty. The Duke fellows make rounds with the hospital staff, hold conferences with the staff doctors and nurses on developments in their specialty fields and help with identification of specific projects in specialty fields for concentrated effort and development. The doctors come from such specialties as general, thoracic, orthopaedic or urologic surgery; otolaryngology; p>ediatric cardiology, metabolism or neurology; perinatal medicine; endocrinology; hematology and Administrator Joins Staff ntCRCom is published weekly for Duke University Medical Center employes, faculty, staff, students and friends by the Medical Center's Office of Public Relations, Joe Sigler, director; Miss Yvonne Baskin, medical writer; Miss Annie Kittrell, secretary. Co-Editors DAVID WILLIAMSON DALE MOSES Public Relations Advisory Committee: Sam A. Agnello, audiovisual education; Dr. Robert Anderson Jr., surgery; James L. Bennett Jr., vice president's office; Wayne Gooch, personnel; Dr. Athos Ottolenghi, physiology and pharmacology; Richard Peck, hospital administration; Ms. Julia Taylor, RN, nursing; Dr. Tom C. Vanaman, nmcrobi£logv^andimmunology^^^^^^^^^^^ Paul Seidler Stark has been named unit administrator of Duke's obstetrics and gynecology wards. The 1973 graduate of the University of Minnesota's hospital administration program assumed responsibility for Prevost, Carter, Sims and Williams wards and the Full Term Nursery Sept. 24 and succeeds Michael J. Schwartz who has taken on new duties as assistant administrative director of the hospital. A Chicago native. Stark was raised in Kansas City, Mo., and attended Cornell College in Mt. Vernon, Iowa. After earning a B.A. degree in history there in 1968, he served three years in the army, including a 13-month tour in Korea. He began graduate work in hospital administration at Minnesota in 1971, and his administrative residency was spent at Northwestern Memorial Hospital, an affiliate of Northwestern University in Chicago. His wife, the former Konnie Kiefer of Central City, Iowa, holds a master's degree in music and is a former employe oncology; cardiology; gastroenterology; pulmonary disease and nephrology. Each of the four Duke departments involved in the program has signed a separate agreement with Cabarrus Memorial providing for different numbers and types of consultant visits. But all have agreed to provide visits on a regular basis not only by fellows but also by senior Duke faculty and staff members, Duke paramedical personnel and outstanding scientists from other parts of the country. For instance, the agreement with the' Department of Surgery provides for a monthly visit to Cabarrus by a member of the senior anesthesiology staff. • The senior staff physician who is coordinating the program in the Department of Pediatrics, will visit Cabarrus at least once every two weeks to assist in the continued development of such things as care in the newborn nursery, school health programs and venereal disease programs for adolescents. The Department of Medicine will also provide for once-a-week visits by registered nurses, physicians' associates, administrators or other non-physician personnel according to the needs at Cabarrus. Obstetrics-Gynecology will arrange four two-day visits a year by outstanding scientists and clinicians from other institutions in the country who will lecture and consult with the Cabarrus Memorial staff. Proposed topics for future inservice education programs include hypertension, renal failure, developments in chemotherapy for cancer, better cardiac monitoring systems, training of cardiac arrest teams and management of respiratory diseases in the newborn. Plans for the affiliation were in the works for more than a year before the agreement was signed between Duke and Cabarrus. Dr. Galen S. Wagner, assistant professor of medicine at Duke, is serving as the program coordinator temporarily until a fulltime coordinator can be found. The fulltime coordinator will be a full member of the Duke faculty but will also be a permanent resident of Cabarrus County. The primary focus of the program during this first year is to provide continuing education for the staff at Cabarrus, improve existing medical programs, launch needed new ones and develop standards and criteria to help Cabarrus maintain quality medical care. Duke administrators hope the affiliation will provide a basis for future training of young doctors and senior medical students in a community hospital setting and perhaps set the precedent for affiliations between Duke and other hospitals in the state. i ENO EXHIBIT The Eno River Association is currently presenting an exhibition about the river which flows just north of Durham at the Allied Arts building on Proctor St. Open to the public through Nov. 9, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., the exhibit includes paintings, nature photographs and memorabilia of the Eno region, ranging from arrowheads to old maps.
