LUKE'S DES PERES CHNA PROCESS, HOWEVER LIMITED RESOURCES NECESSITATE SELECTION OF FOCUS AREAS FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVES. THE FOLLOWING COMMUNITY NEEDS HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED BUT WERE NOT PRIORITIZED AS TOP HEALTH NEEDS IN THE ST. LUKE'S DES PERES 2022 CHNA.CANCER: SMOKING CAUSES ABOUT 20% OF ALL CANCERS AND ABOUT 30% OF ALL CANCER DEATHS IN THE UNITED STATES. ABOUT 80% OF LUNG CANCERS, AS WELL AS ABOUT 80% OF ALL LUNG CANCER DEATHS, ARE DUE TO SMOKING. LUNG CANCER IS THE LEADING CAUSE OF CANCER DEATH IN BOTH MEN AND WOMEN. ST. LUKE'S DES PERES' FOCUSED PRIORITY ON SMOKING WILL ADDRESS ONE OF THE MAJOR RISK FACTORS FOR CANCER DISEASE AND DEATH. IN ADDITION, ST. LUKE'S DES PERES IS PART OF THE ST. LUKE'S NETWORK OF CARE. ST. LUKE'S HOSPITAL IN CHESTERFIELD, MO OFFERS COMPREHENSIVE INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT SERVICES, EDUCATIONAL INFORMATION, AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT FOR THE PREVENTION, DIAGNOSIS, AND TREATMENT OF CANCER. AS PART OF ST. LUKE'S COMMISSION ON CANCER (COC) ACCREDITATION, ST. LUKE'S COMMUNITY OUTREACH CONDUCTS ANNUAL EDUCATION AND SCREENING EVENTS IN THE COMMUNITY TO ADDRESS BARRIERS LIMITING ACCESS WITH THE GOAL OF PREVENTION AND EARLIER DETECTION. PLANNED COC COMMUNITY OUTREACH EFFORTS FOR 2022 WILL HELP EDUCATE AND NAVIGATE CURRENT AND FORMER SMOKERS TO LOW DOSE CT SCAN SCREENING FOR LUNG CANCER AND SMOKING CESSATION RESOURCES.HYPERTENSION, HEART DISEASE, DIABETES: HYPERTENSION, HEART DISEASE, AND DIABETES ARE RELATED CONDITIONS OFTEN RESULTING FROM BEING OVERWEIGHT OR OBESE. SELECTING OBESITY AS A PRIORITY HEALTH NEED RECOGNIZES THAT RELATED HEALTH CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY BE ADDRESSED AND IMPACTED THROUGH INITIATIVES FOR OBESITY. ST. LUKE'S DES PERES' FOCUSED PRIORITY ON SMOKING WILL ALSO ADDRESS HYPERTENSION, HEART DISEASE, AND DIABETES SINCE SMOKING TOBACCO DAMAGES THE CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM AND INCREASES RISK OF MANY RELATED DISEASES. ARTHRITIS/JOINT DISEASE: ST. LUKE'S DES PERES ORTHOPEDICS AND PHYSICAL THERAPY SERVICE LINES INCLUDE COMPREHENSIVE TREATMENT AND THERAPY OPTIONS FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO SUFFER FROM PAIN, INJURY, AND OTHER MEDICAL PROBLEMS WITH THE GOAL OF RETURNING PATIENTS TO OPTIMAL LEVELS OF PHYSICAL FUNCTION. ORTHOPEDIC CARE AND THERAPY SERVICES ARE SERVICE LINE STRENGTHS AT ST. LUKE'S DES PERES, AND WE PLAN TO CONTINUE TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF OUR COMMUNITY THROUGH CONTINUED GROWTH AND COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENT OUTCOMES.MENTAL HEALTH/SUBSTANCE ABUSE/LIVER DISEASE: MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE WERE NOT SELECTED AS PRIORITY NEEDS OF FOCUS FOR THE ST. LUKE'S DES PERES CHNA, HOWEVER, CURRENT EFFORTS AND PARTNERSHIPS TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES WILL CONTINUE. ST. LUKE'S DES PERES HOSPITAL PARTNERS WITH METROPOLITAN PUBLIC AND NONPROFIT COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS TO ADDRESS MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE ISSUES IN THE COMMUNITY AND WORKS CLOSELY WITH FQHCS WHOSE PROGRAMS MANAGING MENTAL HEALTH DIAGNOSIS AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE ARE VITAL IN ASSISTING ST. LUKE'S DES PERES' UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED PATIENTS. MEMBERS OF ST. LUKE'S DES PERES STAFF SERVE IN LEADERSHIP ROLES ON LOCAL BOARDS TO ADVISE AND COLLABORATE TO ENSURE VITAL RESOURCES CONTINUE TO BE AVAILABLE FOR OUR PATIENTS AND THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. RESOURCE PACKETS ARE PROVIDED TO PATIENTS TO HELP CONNECT THEM WITH COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE RESOURCES, AND CONSENTING PATIENTS ARE MET AT BEDSIDE AND HELPED BY REPRESENTATIVES WHO HELP TO ARRANGE SERVICES POST DISCHARGE. CONTINUATION OF COLLABORATIVE RELATIONSHIPS WITH COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS WHO PROVIDE MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE SERVICES IS VITAL FOR ST. LUKE'S DES PERES HOSPITAL TO MEET THE MENTAL HEALTH NEEDS OF ITS PATIENTS. BECAUSE LIVER DISEASE IS COMMONLY ALCOHOL-INDUCED, ADDRESSING SUBSTANCE ABUSE EFFORTS AS EXPLAINED SHOULD HELP TO IMPACT LIVER DISEASE IN THE COMMUNITY.</ExplanationTxt>
