Happy fall from Columbus Regional
Healthcare System! We are once again
pleased to share information about
your local hospital and health system,
including new and expanding services,
improved technology and quality, and
details about our outstanding providers.
This fall edition of Health Matters
includes a special center section that
should serve as a handy resource for everyone. It features
an extensive list of our healthcare providers, listed by
specialty, and includes their contact information. We hope
that this will prove to be helpful when searching for a
trusted partner in healthcare.
"Patient's First!" That's our goal at Columbus Regional—
making sure that every patient receives excellent, high
quality care in our hospital and at our physician practices.
In this issue you will read about the Touchstone Award that
our teammates recently received for doing just that.
We are also pleased to introduce one of our newest
teammates, Jeremy Simmons, MDiv, CRHS Chaplain.
Thanks to the CRHS Foundation and Carolinas Healthcare
System, his arrival this summer has provided spiritual
care and support for patients of all faiths. His story and
information about Spiritual Care at CRHS can be read on
pages 4 & 5.
And speaking of our CRHS Foundation, I hope that many
of you will make plans to attend the 12th annual fundraising
Gala that will be held on November 19. This year we are
excited to honor our Volunteers who provide so much to our
facility every day.
Have a fabulous fall!
To your good health,
Carla P. Hollis
