Linda Mills on April 3, 2009, at the Carroll Hospital Center Foundation
Founders Dinner which honored Mr. Mills as the newest recipient of its Founders
Circle Community Spirit Award.

On April 3, the Carroll Hospital Center Foundation Founders
Dinner honored the newest recipient of its Founders Circle Community Spirit
Award, G. Melvin Mills Jr. Mills joins previous honorees Atlee Wampler, David
and Betty Scott, Charles Fisher Sr., Scott and Anita Bair, Jack Gambatese, Jack
Tevis and Steve Bohn.

Throughout our history there are many examples of basic
needs of our community that have been addressed by the private sector.

Look no further than our local hospital. Talk of the need
for a hospital in our community goes as far back as the 1880s, and its history
is filled with stories of private individuals who worked hard to ensure that it
was built.

Many folks in the community may take the hospital for
granted, but its success has been greatly supported by the community.

At this year's Founders ceremony, held at St.
John's Portico in Westminster,
the event's 240 guests also were acknowledged for their generosity and ongoing
financial support of the hospital, Carroll Hospice and the hospital auxiliary.

Jack Tevis, chair of the hospital foundation board; John
Sernulka, hospital CEO; Charlie Fisher Jr., chair of board of directors; and
the 2007 Spirit Award recipient, Steve Bohn, all shared in presenting Mills
with the 2009 award for his contributions of time, talent and resources to the
hospital since the mid-1980s.

Mills served on the foundation board of trustees from 1995
to 2005. From 2001 to 2005 he chaired the board while also serving on the
hospital's board of directors. And during his 10 years of service, more than
$15 million was raised on behalf of the hospital and Carroll Hospice.

Also recognized for her contributions was Mills' wife Linda
-- as we all know, no one can do great things for the community without the
support of family.

[…]

Finally, I should note that Sherri Hosfeld Joseph, the
hospital foundation's director of development, helped me with information for
this week's column. If you'd like to learn more about the work of the
foundation, give her a call at 410- 871-6200.

Dayhoff: Historical markers dedicated for the Henryton Nursing School, Tuberculosis Sanatorium

Dayhoff: Historical markers dedicated for the Henryton Nursing School, Tuberculosis Sanatorium

By Kevin Dayhoff May 22, 2016

http://www.carrollcountytimes.com/columnists/ph-ce-dayhoff-052216-20160522-column.html

About 50 folks huddled along the shoulder of Henryton Road at the entrance of the historic Henryton State Hospital complex May 14 to dedicate two roadside historic markers. The sun shined brightly on the ceremonies in a rare reprieve in the recent streak of endless days of rainfall.

No, the celebrants were not there to dedicate an ark, but it nearly took an act of God to get the state of Maryland to tacitly acknowledge the very existence of the historic segregated facility for the treatment of African Americans suffering from tuberculosis and the segregated nursing school that was once located there — far out of sight of urban Baltimore and the seat of state government in Annapolis.

Noted civil rights leader John Lewis Jr., the 2nd vice president of the Carroll County NAACP, was the master of ceremonies. Other community leaders, such as Pam Zappardino, Charles Collyer, Virginia and Charles Harrison, Jean Lewis, Del. Susan Krebs R-District 5, the Rev. Douglas Sands and Maryland NAACP president Gerald G. Stansbury were on hand to share in the ceremonies.

This writer began looking into the history of the hospital in the early 1970s when it caught my attention during an assignment to research the history of hospitals in Carroll County for a project for what was then-Carroll County General Hospital.

Over the years, researching the history of hospital has difficult. What little information on the hospital that was found was often conflicting, inconsistent, and only appeared in anecdotal accounts; often without a comprehensive context. Many historians contacted in the 1970s were barely aware of the facility.

A family member returned to Inova Fairfax Hospital in northern Virginia for a follow-up procedure today.

Wed. April 27, 2016 a family member returned to Inova Fairfax Hospital in northern Virginia for a follow-up procedure today.

She also took the opportunity to have a reunion with many of the awesome nurses in the ICU unit where she spent much of this past Jan. and Feb. We really appreciated the opportunity to thank everyone from the bottom of our heart.

We had an incredibly positive experience with Fairfax Hospital. Not only was her medical care excellent, but everyone there was so nice, friendly and helpful, in spite of the fact that this is a huge, ginormous metropolitan Washington DC medical facility.

Everyone from the administration to the staff to the medical professionals went out if their way to be friendly, and helpful.

Our extended family practically lived there throughout her hospitalization and the hospital staff could not have been more accommodating.

Friday, Jan. 15, we really enjoyed our dinner at the New York J&P Pizza in Mt. Airy

Friday, Jan. 15, we really enjoyed our dinner at the New York J&P Pizza in Mt. Airy. After traveling for two hours from Fairfax to Frederick in bumper to bumper traffic at 15 mph. How in the world do folks do that day after day, week after week?

Carroll Hospital Center looking for partners - baltimoresun.com: 

Wants to better position itself as health care reimbursement changes

"By Andrea K. Walker, The Baltimore Sun February 17, 2014 

http://www.baltimoresun.com/health/maryland-health/bs-hs-carroll-hospital-partner-20140217,0,2952578.story

 Carroll Hospital Center has begun what it calls an "aggressive" search for hospital partners, saying it's open to all options, including the possibility of merging with another institution.

The 193-bed hospital has operated independently for its entire 53-year existence and is profitable, but CEO John Sernulka said changes in health care will put financial pressure on small hospitals like his in the near future.

"Reimbursement will continue to tighten," Sernulka said. "There will be less and less dollars pumped into the health care system.""

Crossing the Creek, A Practical Guide to the Dying Process

“Crossing the Creek” is written by Michael Homes

http://www.slideshare.net/kevindayhoff/20000904-crossing-creek

I received “Crossing the Creek, A Practical Guide to the Dying Process” on the last day, November 13, 2013, of Bereavement Skills Training at Carroll Hospice.

http://www.scribd.com/doc/187206483/%E2%80%9CCrossing-the-Creek%E2%80%9D-is-written-by-Michael-Homes

I recently took a 15-hour class in Bereavement Skills Training at Carroll Hospice, http://www.carrollhospice.org/Bereavement-Skills-Training taught by Kathleen A. Bare, M.S. Bereavement Counselor, Carroll Hospice, 292 Stoner Ave., Westminster, MD 21157.

The topics included an introduction to Carroll Hospice and the services and functions hospice can provide when family members, loved-ones, friends and colleagues are “Crossing the Creek.”

The class touched-upon the medical aspects of the dying experience and advice for caregivers. Class segments included ‘normal grief,’ natural grief responses, children and grief. Complicated grief, suicides, communication skills, rituals, support groups and resources.

On the last day of class, a member of the class distributed a photocopy of the publication, “Crossing the Creek, A Practical Guide to the Dying Process,” which the author, Michael Homes, RN, identifies as “A nurse’s perspective on the medical aspects of the dying experience and advice for caregivers.” My copy of “Crossing the Creek” is branded with a ‘print date’ of September 4, 2000.

According to http://crossingthecreek.com/, the publication is no longer available. Furthermore, the publisher, Damone-Rose Publishing is going out of business. A brief search of the internet did not locate a place where the book could be purchased. This information was accessed on November 25, 2013.

That is a shame because it is a valuable and well accepted plain-language and common sense approach to the dying experience and advice to caregivers…

In his introduction to “Crossing the Creek,” Mr. Holmes writes:

“This guide is intended to provide dying people and their caregivers with a general description of what they can expect to encounter. While understanding does not eliminate the impact of experience, it can: certainly reduce some of the consternation and allay that creeping sense of panic•.

“All transitions have similar key elements. Also, every person experiences, a wide variety of transitions during the course of his/her lifetime. In that sense, there is nothing new in dying process. In fact, each of us develops our own, personal style for dealing with transitions. We tend to stick with that style, whatever it might be, when we face the transition we call death.

“If you would like to know how you will handle your own death, look back upon your life and observe how you have handled all your other transitions. Unless you decide to change your approach, that is how you will die.

While all transitions have similar key elements, this guide deals specifically with the transition of dying. Every person does not experience every sign or symptom described herein, or a person may experience a particular sign or symptom in his/her own unique way. There is room for infinite variation in how any given individual may experience the dying process. At the same time, certain general themes are common to all.

“It is well to remember that all transitions entail some disagreeable or uncomfortable aspects. Dying process is no exception. No reasonable person expects that life will contain no discomforts, yet some espouse the notion that somehow, death will. This is not a reasonable expectation. The dying process has its difficult aspects regardless of one's level of enlightenment.

“Modern medicine has demonstrated a remarkable capacity for mitigating or even eliminating many disagreeable aspects of physical death. At the same time, modern medicine cannot relieve people of responsibility for their own lives. We all prepare for our own death by the manner in which we live our lives. Skilled clinicians can be a great help, but we each bear the ultimate burden of responsibility for how we live and how we die…”
