Baptist to hold second Pink Tie Event
Stephen Reynolds, president and CEO of Baptist Memorial Health Care (right), presents Dr. H. Edward Garrett Jr. a replica of the stained glass art that will be placed in
front of the Baptist Memphis Education Center and Dr. H. Edward Garrett Sr.
Auditorium at the center’s dedication ceremony on Wednesday, Sept. 15. The Garrett
family made a contribution to the Baptist Memorial Health Care Foundation that led
to the development of the new education center and auditorium.
Baptist celebrates a legacy of service
with opening of Garrett Auditorium
Baptist colleagues, physicians
and members of the community
celebrated a legacy of service
with the dedication of the Baptist
Memphis Education Center and
Dr. H. Edward Garrett Sr.
Auditorium on Wednesday, Sept.
15.
Located on the campus of
Baptist Memorial HospitalMemphis, the education center
boasts more than 20,000 square
feet of conference and classroom
space suited for health care
education, professional development, and community gatherings
such as church and civic events
and receptions.
The center is equipped with
classroom space that can be
partitioned to create five individual rooms or two large open
classrooms or gathering spaces.
It is also furnished with advanced
audio/visual equipment, which
enables the classrooms to receive
images and sound from the 250seat auditorium.
The auditorium was named in
honor of Dr. H. Edward Garrett
Sr., a renowned cardiovascular
surgeon who helped performed
the world’s first successful coronary artery bypass operation in
1964 and performed the first
coronary artery bypass in
Memphis in 1968 at Baptist.
“It is my sincere belief that
the Baptist Memphis Education
Center and Garrett Auditorium
will be a valuable resource for
generations to come,” said
Johnnie Amonette, chair of the
Baptist Memphis community
advisory board.
The opening included
remarks from Stephen Reynolds,
president and CEO of Baptist
Memorial Health Care;
Amonette; Joe Weller, chair of
Lorri Fentress, a breast cancer survivor, models at the inaugural Pink Tie Event in
2009. This year, Fentress will return as a model at the event, which honors breast
cancer survivors while showcasing the latest fall fashions. The event will be held
Saturday, Oct. 2, from 2 p.m. until 4 p.m. at the Avenue Carriage Crossing in
Collierville, Tenn.
Fifteen years ago, Lorri Fentress
went in for her regular checkup
with her doctor, only to be told she
would need additional tests.
ordered more tests. Breast cancer
cells were found in the same breast
as before, which led to surgery and
reconstruction.
At age 29, Fentress was not
overly concerned during the
biopsy. However, her world
changed when the results came
back positive for breast cancer.
“I owe Dr. Wortham a big
tribute,” she said. “He saved my
life twice.”
She underwent cancer treatment, radiation and
chemotherapy, and her doctor gave
her a clean bill of health. She
moved to the Gulf Coast, married
and had a healthy son when she
was 37.
Following Hurricane Katrina,
Fentress and her family came back
to Memphis, and she returned to
her annual visits with Dr. George
Wortham at Baptist Memorial
Hospital for Women, the very
doctor who helped her through her
initial diagnosis.
During one visit, Wortham
noticed something strange and
For the second time, Fentress
will be joining other area breast
cancer survivors in the Pink Tie
Event, which is sponsored by
Baptist Memorial Health Care and
the Avenue Carriage Crossing in
Collierville, Tenn. It will be held
Saturday, Oct. 2, from 2 p.m. to 4
p.m. in front of the Marriott Hotel
at the Avenue Carriage Crossing.
The event will feature a fashion
show showcasing the latest fall
styles, and Fentress and her fellow
survivors will be the models for the
show. Many of the stores at the
Avenue Carriage Crossing are
involved in the event and have fit
models with outfits from their
stores.

Pink Tie
Continued from page 1
“I had so much fun participating
in the Pink Tie Event last year that I
jumped at the opportunity to participate again,” Fentress said.
“Meeting so many ladies who were
beautiful inside and out was the best
part.”
This year, Fentress will be joined
by several new models, including
Amy Butler, who was diagnosed in
2008 at the age of 38.
“I knew I had to fight with all I
had, as God has blessed me with two
wonderful children, and I was meant
to be their mom,” she said.
Butler underwent a double
mastectomy with reconstructive
surgery and began chemotherapy in
early 2009. After she began losing
her hair, she shaved her head, and
her son had his shaved, as well.
Butler went through some
setbacks during her recovery. A
staph infection required 30 days of
intravenous antibiotics and a blood
transfusion. However, through it all,
Butler kept a positive outlook.
“I took my kids to school and
picked them up every day, no matter
what was happening, to maintain a
sense of normalcy,” she said. “I was
very honest with my kids and made
sure they knew what was going on so
I could minimize their fears.”
Butler is looking forward to the
opportunity to share her story with
others, as well as meet her fellow
survivors.
“You never know who in the audience has been affected by this
disease,” she said. “Bringing
survivors together really gives you a
feeling of hope.”
Baptist’s mobile mammography
unit, genetic counselors and representatives from Baptist’s Breast Risk
Management Center will also be on
hand to provide important information about breast cancer.
“So many events for breast cancer
survivors only involve those who
have been directly affected by the
disease,” Fentress said. “This is a
unique opportunity for survivors
and non-survivors alike to come
together to promote awareness.”

coordinator (left), and Cathy Tenpenny, paralegal (center), with Service First awards
at the Corporate Center on Thursday, Sept. 16.
Butler is excited for the opportunity to participate in the Pink Tie
Event and said it is also one more
chance to allow her son and
daughter to celebrate her clean bill
of health.
“They are really excited about the
event because they have been with
me every step of the way,” she said.
“We went to Disney World as a celebration of defeating the cancer, and
this event is just another way they
can celebrate our victory over the
disease.”
Work continues on Baptist DeSoto Habitat house
Volunteers from Baptist Memorial Hospital-DeSoto work on the framing for the
Habitat for Humanity house the hospital is sponsoring in Horn Lake, Miss.
Colleagues will continue working on the house - which will be a home for Angela
Thornton and her three children - through November.
Chaltry named volunteer of the year
at Baptist Golden Triangle
Joyce Chaltry was named the
Baptist Memorial Hospital-Golden
Triangle Volunteer of the Year at the
hospital’s auxiliary luncheon on
Tuesday, Sept. 14.
Chaltry has been a volunteer at
Baptist Golden Triangle since 1988
and has accumulated more than
5,000 hours of service.
She volunteers her time in the
hospital’s gift shop, where she
always makes sure there is plenty of
candy for the hospital’s guests and
colleagues. She also crafts silk
flowers and candy arrangements,
which are sold in the gift shop. She
knits lap blankets for patients and
creates food tray favors that brighten
the moods of patients who are in the
hospital during the holidays.
“Joyce always has a smile or a kind
word for everyone she sees,” said
Martha McGahey, volunteer coordinator. “She never hesitates to thank
the staff or other volunteers for all
they do to promote the hospital. She
has a warm way of making everyone
feel special.”
Baptist colleagues participate in Day of Caring
Ralph Carmouche, director of food and dietetic services at Baptist Memorial
Hospital for Women, works on the roof of Girls Inc. during the annual United Way
Day of Caring on Friday, Sept. 17. Each year, United Way’s fundraising campaign
kicks off with the Day of Caring, which brings businesses, organizations, nonprofits
and other charitable initiatives together to engage in hands-on work to help people

The arrival of fall usually means
cooler temperatures, shorter days
and, for Baptist Memorial Health
Care, a number of fall events.
On Oct. 1, Baptist Memorial
Hospital for Women will celebrate
the grand opening of the Gallery of
Hope.
This distinctive art gallery
features portraits of graduates of
the hospital’s newborn intensive
care unit taken by popular local
photographer Allison Rodgers,
whose work has been published
internationally and featured twice on
ABC’s “Extreme Makeover: Home
Edition” with Ty Pennington.
Oct. 2 is a busy day for Baptist.
The Juvenile Diabetes Research
Foundation International is
holding its annual Walk to Cure
Diabetes at Shelby Farms Park.
Baptist is the outreach sponsor for
this event, and members of our
corporate communications department have organized a team to
participate in the walk, which
begins at 10 a.m.
The annual Walk for the
Homeless is also scheduled for Oct.
2 at 10 a.m. The Baptist corporate
center has held numerous
fundraisers for this event, which
strives to raise funds and educate
the public on the issue of homelessness.
The American Heart
Association’s Heart Walk will also
be held on Oct. 2 at AutoZone Park.
Baptist participates in this walk
every year, and those interested in
joining this year’s team can signup

Avenue Carriage Crossing in
Collierville, Tenn., Baptist will
hold its second Pink Tie Event, a
fashion show that strives to provide
awareness of the importance of
regular breast cancer screenings.
Models in the show iare breast
cancer survivors, and each individual’s story is told as they model
outfits provided by Avenue
Carriage Crossing stores.
Sunday, Oct. 3, is the first Camp
Good Grief 5K, which is sponsored
by Memorial Park Funeral Home
and Cemetery, Pugh’s Flowers and
Pugh’s EarthWorks.
All proceeds will benefit Baptist
Trinity’s Camp Good Grief, the
Mid-South’s first children’s
bereavement camp. The 5K will
begin at 2 p.m. and will also feature
moon bounces and face painting.
The 2010 Memphis Walk to
Defeat ALS will be held on
Saturday, Oct. 9. This year’s walk is
especially important to Baptist, as
we are walking in memory of
former Baptist Memorial HospitalMemphis Chief Financial Officer
Jeff Nowell, who passed away in
August from his struggle with Lou
Gehrig’s Disease.
Last year, Baptist raised more
than $21,000 in honor of Nowell,
and this year, we hope to exceed
that fundraising goal. During the
next few weeks, we will hold
fundraisers at several locations,
including the corporate center to
raise money for this cause.
The Walk to Defeat ALS will be
held at Audubon Park. Check-in
begins at 10 a.m., and the walk
starts at 11 a.m.
These are just a few of the many
events Baptist will be sponsoring
during the next few weeks. I
encourage all colleagues who are
able to participate if possible,
whether by attending the events or
donating to their causes.

Baptist employment services streamlines application process with new system
The job application process
throughout the Baptist Memorial
Health Care system will become
much more efficient with the
final phase of the systemwide golive of iCIMS, an applicant
tracking program, on Monday,
Sept. 27.
The regional Mississippi
market went live on June 21, and
the West Tennessee market and
NEA Baptist went live on Aug. 30.
Each year, employment services receives approximately
27,000 applications for metro job
openings, which is an average of
120 applications each day.
According to Kristen Lilly,
director of employment services
for Baptist, the establishment of a
web-based tracking program will
provide numerous advantages for
applicants, managers and human
resources.
“The application, manager
review and hiring is currently a
manual process and results in an
extended time-to-hire period,”
she said. “iCIMS will automate
the entire application life cycle,
from candidate submission to
recruiter screening to manager
review to hiring.”
Benefits of the program to
applicants include an automatic
response communication
regarding the status of their
application throughout the
process, one career site for all
system positions and an online
application that can be completed
Baptist Rehabilitation-Germantown
receives maximum accreditation
The Commission on
Accreditation of Rehabilitation
Facilities recently accredited nine
Baptist RehabilitationGermantown programs –
including brain injury inpatient
rehabilitation for adults and
adolescents, inpatient rehabilitation programs for adults and
adolescents and inpatient rehabilitation for stroke patients – for
the maximum of three years.
CARF offers the highest
accreditation a rehabilitation
hospital can achieve. Health care
facilities accredited by CARF
must demonstrate that patients
served are benefiting from the
facilities’ services.
To receive a three-year accreditation, organizations must
undergo a rigorous peer review
and show a team of surveyors
during an on-site visit that the
organization is committed to
following CARF’s accreditation
conditions and standards.
This is the second consecutive
time Baptist Rehab-Germantown
earned a three-year CARF
accreditation.
“This is a huge achievement
for our employees, physicians
and the hospital,” said Susan
Stralka, CEO and administrator of
Baptist Rehab-Germantown. “We
are proud to have so many of our
programs accredited by such a
prestigious organization.”
CARF is an independent, notfor-profit accrediting body whose
mission is to promote the quality,
value and optimal outcomes of
services through a consultative
accreditation process centered
around enhancing the lives of the
people served.
Founded in 1966, CARF establishes consumer-focused
standards to help organizations
measure and improve the quality
of their programs and services.
at home that provides autotracking of the application status.
All necessary application and
hire forms will also be available
online. Baptist colleagues will be
able to sign in through their own
portal to view internal job opportunities.
Managers will benefit from
real-time posting for positions,
which will eliminate previous
posting deadlines required for
the manual process. They will also
be able to monitor the approval
process and status of their vacant
positions, as well as their candidates.
Human resources will also gain
from the new system, as all
Baptist entities will be live on the
program to streamline the application process and provide
systemwide, real-time vacancy
and hiring statistics.
“iCIMS interfaces with several
systems including Lawson HR
payroll, Lawson Performance
Management, and DataFacts for
background checks,” Lilly said.
“Automating the employment
process with iCIMS enables these
interfaces to ultimately streamline the employment process for
the entire Baptist system.”
In addition to Lilly, the iCIMS
task force includes Kimberle
Laws, recruiter employment
analyst; Rickie Lee, employment
specialist; Sharon Ewing, business analyst IV; and Jan Lee,
director of information systems.
Baptist Huntingdon ready to offer
aquatic therapy for rehabilitation
Baptist Memorial HospitalHuntingdon’s rehabilitation
program will soon be offering
aquatic physical therapy for
patients who need to avoid the
amount of weight placed on the
joints by land-based exercise.
“We are very excited to be the
first in Carroll County to offer this
innovative means of physical
therapy to our patients,” said Julie
Bartholomew, director of rehabilitation at Baptist Huntingdon.
Patients who will benefit the
most from aquatic therapy include
those who suffer from arthritis,
lower back pain, fibromyalgia,
multiple sclerosis and various
injuries.
“Water resistance also helps
improve the strength and blood
circulation throughout the body,”
Bartholomew said. “Improved
circulation normally reduces
swelling to the lower extremities,
which will relieve joint stress and
pain.”
Construction is under way in
the Baptist HealthPlex adjacent to
the hospital, where the
HydroWorx therapy pool will be
located. The pool will have
ergonomic stairs and handrails
for safe accessibility.
Ground-based gait training and
activities can be duplicated on the
variable-speed underwater treadmill, and there will be
strategically placed, highpowered water jets that can be
used for resistance training and
deep-tissue massage.
Patients will also be able to
utilize the pool’s raised rear platform for various exercises in fully
automated water temperatures to
help ease muscle pain and
spasms.
“We look forward to providing
this service to our community,”
said Susan Breeden, administrator and CEO of Baptist
Huntingdon. “It will help elevate
physical rehabilitation and wellness for all ages to unprecedented
levels of quality care.”
