ProMedica Health System: INSIDE

ProMedica in Discussions with St. Luke’s Hospital

ProMedica Health System (PHS) and St. Luke’s Hospital are officially in discussions to determine the best ways the two organizations may work together to better meet the health care needs of area residents and the communities we similarly serve.

States Randy Oostra, President and Chief Executive Officer, PHS, “Amid the landscape of health care reform, ProMedica appreciates the opportunity to hold ongoing dialog with St. Luke’s on how to further improve the quality of health care while continuing to provide consumers with easy access.”

He further notes, “St. Luke’s mission of collaboration and teamwork, integrity, continual improvement in performance, and service to the community are very closely aligned with ProMedica’s Mission and Values.”

Check Out TMA My Guides

ProMedica Health System has partnered with The Toledo Museum of Art to sponsor My Guides—a program designed to allow visitors to take self-guided tours through the museum based on specific themes.

ProMedica employees may be interested in the “Stay Healthy” tour and “Against the Odds” tour, which focus on health and wellness.

“My Guides is a very popular program with our visitors, with hundreds of the brochures being used every week. It gives people direction to engage with the collections in a non-intimidating and fun way,” says Carol Bintz, development officer for corporate and planned giving, The Toledo Museum of Art.

Several pieces from the “Stay Healthy” tour feature artwork from ancient Egypt and ancient Greece. This tour directs visitors to works of art that promote healthy living as it was interpreted during the period of time in which the art was created.

The second tour, “Against the Odds” exhibits a collection of artwork from artists who overcame physical and/or mental health conditions in the midst of creating their works of art.

Adding to these health and wellness tours, The Toledo Museum of Art will soon add a tour designed to reduce stress on the job. This too will be a free tour for the community to enjoy.

Admission hours for The Toledo Museum of Art are: Tuesdays – Thursdays,
10 a.m. – 4 p.m.; Fridays, 10 a.m. – 10 p.m.; Saturdays, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.;
and Sundays, noon – 6 p.m. Admission to the museum is free.
