As an immediate follow-up to our previous Mission Report podcast preview clip, Rural Health Redesign Center (RHRC) CEO Janice Walters and I further discuss how the survival of Bucktail Medical Center is critical to the people in Renovo, Clinton County and surrounding communities who without it would have to drive well over an hour each way for emergency care.

We simply could not stand by and let that “Golden Hour”– which emergency medical providers know is critical to saving lives – to be flatlined due to travel rather than treatment.

For well over a year, we have successfully partnered together with PA State Rep. Stephanie Borowicz, the Clinton County Commissioners, and of course, the Rural Health Redesign Center (RHRC) to finally secure a $1 million Hospital and Health Emergency Relief Grant to keep Renovo's Bucktail Medical Center operating.

However, this funding is only one part of what this entire team has done to increase overall income for the hospital, improve operations and provide for the financial stability of Bucktail until these measures have time to fully take effect.

In this Mission Report podcast preview clip, RHRC CEO Janice Walters focuses on some of the best lessons she has learned from the “Bucktail experience” and how the Rural Health Redesign Center is applying this practical knowledge to save other rural hospitals moving forward.

Established in 2020, RHRC offers a wide range of innovative programs and services to promote healthier communities, which include technical assistance, strategic planning, financial analysis and emergency support for distressed hospitals.
