Inova Health System Uses CRM Training to Ensure Success with CPM Solution

Middleton, Wisconsin (PRWEB) October 10, 2003—To ensure success of its customer relationship management (CRM) system in an industry just beginning to adopt this strategy, Inova Health System turned to a tried and true tactic to ease fear and skepticism of the unknown: training. Inova has used CPM Marketing Group’s CRM system designed specifically for healthcare, for about three years.

“There are two essential ingredients to CRM success,” said Erin Styles, CRM operations manager at Inova. “The first is a commitment from upper management, and second is the education of all appropriate staff to effectively implement CRM throughout the organization.”

She also noted “CRM fundamentally changes the way we build relationships with our customers and patients, so it’s not surprising that CRM met some resistance. For example, contacting fewer people to get better results is a hard concept to grasp at first. However, developing tools that simplify and spell out the concepts and steps of CRM removes some of the anxiety. Ultimately, the staff needs to be given ownership and accountability for CRM.”

At Inova, training for a wide range of staff—including marketing directors, strategic planning, account managers, web and call center personnel—focuses on learning about the CRM process, developing a CRM marketing strategy, running simple queries and reports with analytical software, and measuring return on investment (ROI).

Styles developed both a CRM User Guide and CRM Tools for Organization Implementation program. The User Guide is a hands-on resource with everything from case studies and HIPAA policy to CRM nuts and bolts explanations. The CRM Tools include the User Guide and also feature internal CRM news via email, Web seminars, guest speakers, and strategy training. “These tools have significantly aided the adoption of our CRM system,” Styles noted. “They have helped the staff gain knowledge and a comfort factor regarding our new methods of marketing.”

Inova has used its CRM system for planning and campaign management. For example, using CRM, Inova can identify services with the most market and financial potential. Following a 12-month obstetrics campaign, Inova achieved its goal of increased volume with 45 new patients and more than $2.6 million in generated charges. Inova used a control group to compare non-solicited market activity with the activity of those who received the campaign materials.

Inova chose CPM Marketing Group’s CRM solution after extensive research on CRM and healthcare models as a response to rising competition in its primary service area. “To be competitive, we needed to be able to meet individual health needs and to grow volume through measurable marketing efforts,” Styles said. “The ability to see the needs/risks of those individuals in our market and to gear our messages and programs to meet those needs is a hallmark of CRM as is the integration of all data to measure true ROI. This can only be done with CRM.”

Friends Seek Kidney Donations to Help to Save Acclaimed Seattle Physician and Activist Dr. Bob Jaffe!

Friends Seek Kidney Donations to Help to Save Acclaimed Seattle Physician and Activist Dr. Bob Jaffe!

Friends and family of doctor and famed anti-smoking activist seek potential donors via www. Kidney4Bob. org

(PRWEB) June 20, 2003

Seattle, WA. –– Dr. Bob Jaffe is a 50 year-old friend, father, husband, family physician and health activist. In 1997, he found himself in sudden renal failure. At the time, he was a busy physician in an inner-city clinic in Seattle, a health activist in the tobacco control campaign, and a husband and father with three children ages 3,4, and 14.

Now Jaffe’s illness has progressed to the point at which he must have a kidney, and soon. His friends and family are therefore seeking public awareness and support in hopes that a public campaign will assist Dr. Bob in getting the kidney he needs – and saving his life. To provide easily accessible information on Dr. Bob and his circumstances, as well as on the opportunity for living kidney donation, the group has launched www. Kidney4Bob. org.

A longtime healthcare and anti-smoking activist, Dr. Bob has been an integral and valued part of the Northwest healthcare community, and has continued to lead a life as close to normal as possible. His family and friends have shown unfailing support, with his sister donating a kidney in 1997. But the transplant failed from post-surgical complications, and since then, Bob has battled with the severe and often disabling consequences of renal failure and dialysis -- chronic anemia, sleep disorder, restless leg syndrome, cutaneous porphyria, chronic weakness and depression. He also has a progressive nerve damage that is severely damaging his feet and hands, and which limits his ability to walk. The only known way to eliminate these problems, and to prevent and to perhaps reverse the nerve damage, is a transplant.

Thanks to his own fortitude, family, and fighting spirit, Dr. Bob has been able to utilize dialysis to survive for over five years now. He dialyzes four days a week, more than 24 hours, and has adjusted to having dialysis during his sleep in order to allow more time to work and to be with his family (his dialysis technician even lives in an apartment in his home). But dialysis cannot act as a replacement for the kidneys forever, and the treatment is becoming increasingly less effective. Transplantation is most often the only solution for patients seeking a return to a normal and healthy life, offering excellent results as long as there are no complications, with typically long-range survival rates across the board.

The bottom line? Bob needs a kidney, and he needs it fast. Humans only need one kidney to survive, and living kidney donation means that there are millions of potential donors right now in any major city in the U. S. Therefore, Bob’s friends and supporters are now speaking out about living kidney donation, in hopes that among those healthy potential donors who come forward to save a life, that one of those donors will match – and save – Dr. Bob Jaffe.

Kidneys 101

A pair of bean-shaped glands located in the middle of the back, the kidneys filter the blood and keep it clean, eliminating toxins and metabolism waste as urine through the ureters and into the bladder. The kidneys regulate the body's water, adjust the blood's composition and its acid/base concentration, and (most significantly) remove wastes from the body (including urea, ammonia, drugs, and toxic substances). The kidneys also stimulate the creation of red blood cells and assist in maintaining the level of calcium in the body.

In short, the kidney's a good thing to have. But what most people may not be aware of is that they actually have one to spare. A single functioning kidney is sufficient to allow a healthy human being to live a long and normal life.

Living Kidney Donation: How You Can Help

The first step to being a living kidney donor is to learn as much as you can about the process (the website www. kidney4Bob. org is a great start). YouÂ’re also welcome to contact Bob (at 206-329-6465 or bob@kickbutt. org), or Janet Hiller RN (at 443-287-4335 or jmhiller@jhmi. edu) the Transplant Coordinator at Johns Hopkins, who will send potential participants a packet of information about the program.

If you want to find out if youÂ’re a potential compatible donor candidate for Bob, meanwhile, simply request a blood tube kit with your packet, which can then be taken to your doctorÂ’s office and sent via Federal Express (for free) to the transplant lab. Let them know when you plan to send your sample in, so that Dr. Bob can send in a sample that can be matched with yours. They will contact you and let you know if you match. Potential donors will need to have a blood type of B or O in order to donate to Bob (who is a type B).

Donor candidates should be in good health, as donors are excluded if they have other medical problems that might place them at risk from the surgery or from living with a single kidney. Both of your existing kidneys will be evaluated, and both must be in great shape. Potential candidates should talk to a spouse, family and a transplant clinic counselor about this decision.

If youÂ’re truly interested in being a donor and have a different blood type, you still might be able to help, as Johns Hopkins offers a program which allows people to trade with other potential donors who are mismatched with the person they want to help. You can then donate to another family, and their mismatched donor could donate to Dr. Bob.

For more information on kidney donation, visit The American Kidney Foundation online at http://www. kidney. org/general/atoz/content/orgdonor. html (http://www. kidney. org/general/atoz/content/orgdonor. html), or Johns Hopkins at http://www. hopkinsmedicine. org/transplant/patient/quiet_heroes. html (http://www. hopkinsmedicine. org/transplant/patient/quiet_heroes. html).

Non-Donation Support Options

For those who are not donation candidates, Jaffe and his friends ask you to support organizations that are supporting people like Bob. The Northwest Kidney Center (206-292-2771) is the non-profit center that helps Bob to dialyze at home. The Northwest Kidney Center was actually the first dialysis center in the world, and has developed services over the last 25 years which have allowed thousands of others to stay alive through dialysis at home, or in one of their centers in Western Washington. The Northwest Kidney Center can always use more volunteers, and offers a foundation that helps those who are unable to afford dialysis care.

Other options? Donate blood at your local blood bank. Donate white blood cells from your bone marrow. If someone being treated for cancer matches with you, it can help them survive the chemotherapy and radiation. Sign up to be an organ donor at the end of your life by signing the donor card box on your driverÂ’s license. Talk to friends and family and ask them to do the same.

Support Dr. Bob Today

Give a kidney to Dr. Bob. You'll help save a life -- and you'll have a great story to tell at parties (especially if you give it that urban legend spin... "I woke up in a bathtub, and..."). You can make a difference.

If you, or someone you know, would be interested in getting tested, please contact Dr. Bob Jaffe directly at 206-329-6465 or by e-mailing bob@kickbutt. org, or contact the Johns Hopkins Highly Sensitized Kidney Transplant by contacting Janet Hiller, R. N. at jmhiller@jhmi. edu.

GenoTrim™ Clinical Data Supports Significance of Genes and Weight Troubles

GenoTrim™ Clinical Data Supports Significance of Genes and Weight Troubles

GenoTrim genes are statistically significant among overweight persons. Genes can help to DNA-customize a nutritional solution for weight management, says data presented at SupplySide West International Conference.

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) October 24, 2006

Salugen, Inc., (www. salugen. com) a leading personalized healthcare company, announced today that clinical data related to its DNA-customized nutritional solution for weight, GenoTrim™ (www. genotrim. com), was accepted for poster display at this past week’s Supply Side West International Trade Show and Conference at the Venetian in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Clinical data from the Dutch Investigation to Evaluate Treatments for DNA-Customized Nutritional Solutions (D. I.E. T. study) has affirmed earlier data that the genes measured to provide DNA-customized GenoTrim (www. genotrim. com) are statistically significant among overweight persons. In fact, 7 out 10 subjects had 2 or more GenoTrim genes contributing to their weight problems.

In this observational study, a total of 1,058 subjects from The Netherlands were genotyped in the nutrigenomics laboratory of Salugen, Inc. (San Diego, CA). Each subject was genotyped based upon the following genetic mutations: Sweet Tooth Gene™ [Dopamine D2 Receptor Gene Taq 1 Alelle (DRD2 A1)], Nervous Eating Gene™ [5-Hydroxytrytamine 2A -1438G/A promoter polymorphism (5-HT2a -1438G/A)], New Cell Gene™ [Methylene Tetrahydrofolate Reductase C677T polymorphism (MTHFR C677T)], Obesity Risk Gene™ [Leptin Genetic Polymorphism - OB1875 < 208-bp alleles (leptin ob1875)], and the fat regulator gene™ [peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma gene pro12ala polymorphism (ppar-gamma pro12ala allele)].

The Sweet Tooth Gene, associated with sugar and carbohydrate cravings, was present in 38.09% of the study subjects (n=1,058) versus 29% of the literature controls (n=3,259). This difference was significant (Z = 8.393, p = 0.0001). The New Cell Gene, associated with heart health and obesity, was present in 69.85% of the study subjects (n=1,058) versus 54% of the literature controls (n=100). This difference was significant (Z* = 2.23, p = 0.01). The Obesity Risk Gene, associated with obesity rates and hormones, was present in 75.61% of the study subjects (n=1,058) versus 45.6% of the literature controls (n=206). This difference was significant (Z = 5.612, p = 0.0001). The Fat Regulator Gene, associated with fat cell production and weight in utero into adulthood, was present in 25.05% of the study subjects (n=1,058) versus 14% of the literature controls (n=2,245). This difference was significant (Z=17.398, p = 0.001).

The prevalence of genetic combinations is also of interest as 37.81% had 3 or more genes, 73.91% had 2 or more genes. The most common genotypes were Nervous Eating and New Cell Genes (13.42%), New Cell Gene (11.81%), Sweet Tooth, Nervous Eating and New Cell Genes (10.4%) and Nervous Eating Gene (7.84%).

“The findings of the D. I.E. T. Study are consistent with earlier data supporting the initial design of GenoTrim as a DNA-customized weight loss supplement. With 30 years of experience studying the genetics of conditions once thought to be purely driven by behavior, our research continues to show that there is a genetic influence on weight. This data confirms that GenoTrim evaluates important genes and then uses that information to provide an unprecedented, customized nutritional supplement to support weight loss,” states Dr. Kenneth Blum, Chief Scientific Officer.

About GenoTrim™

GenoTrim (www. genotrim. com) is a DNA-customized nutritional solution for weight management. Based upon an analysis of five important genes effecting weight, GenoTrim ingredients and dosages are genetically-guided to address the underlying genetic factors involved in hormones and metabolism that Harvard Medical Experts suggest influence 70% to 80% of overweight cases. By addressing genetic factors that make individuals prone to weight problems, GenoTrim supports healthy sleep, digestion, mood, and fat metabolism which results in sustainable weight loss and overall trimming. GenoTrim was unexpectedly test launched in The Netherlands in early 2006 and will be available in the United States in the second half of 2006.

Challenger Learning Center Receives Grant from W. K. Kellogg Foundation

Challenger Learning Center Receives Grant from W. K. Kellogg Foundation

Spanish-speaking middle-school students in economically challenged areas will learn math, science and technology through e-Missions simulating space missions that are delivered by Wheeling Jesuit University's Challenger Learning Center (http://clc. wju. edu), thanks to a $50,000 grant from the W. K. Kellogg Foundation of Battle Creek, Michigan.

(PRWEB) April 3, 2004

As part of the grant, three additional Challenger Centers will now offer e-Mission: Operation Montserrat – Spanish to schools in their region, providing more students in other areas of the country to take part in the simulated mission. Funding will also cover the cost of training teachers to use the curriculum supplements, as well as cover the cost of 40 e-Missions to schools selected by Wheeling Jesuit University's Challenger Learning Center (http://clc. wju. edu (http://clc. wju. edu)) and the three new centers set to deliver the program.

"This grant allows us to provide an innovative hands-on activities that motivate and engage students, whose first language is Spanish, with the power of math and science. Our goal is encourage them to pursue careers in these areas," says Nancy Sturm, education director of the Challenger Learning Center at Wheeling Jesuit University in Wheeling, WV. “The program will utilize distance learning technologies to create a live simulation in classrooms in selected schools across the country. ”

E-Mission: Operation Montserrat – Spanish allows participants to fill the roll of earth science experts. During the course of a two-hour live mission, the participants become members of the volcano, hurricane or communication team. The program engages participants to work as scientists in order to solve problems in real-life situations and challenges them to apply their mathematics and science knowledge to a real-life event..

"This education package places participants into the roles of scientists and astronauts trying to solve a real-life problem. Once a young person participates in the program, they are hooked and their fascination with space science exploration permeates their hearts and minds,” Sturm says.

Founded in 1994, The Challenger Learning Center at Wheeling Jesuit University is part of a growing network of centers nationwide established by the Challenger Center for Space Science Education in memory of the ill-fated Challenger Shuttle. Wheeling Jesuit's Challenger Learning Center conducts nearly 400 on-site simulated missions annually, more than any other Challenger Center in the network, and “flies" more than 430 e-missions to more than 100 classrooms, across the country and overseas, each year.

The W. K. Kellogg Foundation was established in 1930 “to help people help themselves through the practical application of knowledge and resources to improve their quality of life and that of future generations.” Its programming activities center around the common vision of a world in which each person has a sense of worth, accepts responsibility for self, family, community and societal well-being; and has the capacity to be productive and to help create nurturing families, responsive institutions and healthy communities.

To achieve the greatest impact, the foundation targets its grants toward specific areas. These include: health; food systems and rural development, youth and education; and philanthropy and volunteerism. Within these areas, attention is given to the cross cutting themes of leadership; information and communication technology; capitalizing on diversity, and social and economic community development. Grants are concentrated in the United States, Latin America and the Caribbean, and the southern African countries of Botswana, Lesotho, Mozambique, South Africa, Swaziland and Zimbabwe.

Wheeling Jesuit University integrates the Jesuit traditions of intellectual excellence with the best of advanced technology to help students develop lives of service, success and significance. The University's mission is to educate students for life, for leadership, and for service with and among others. U. S.News & World Report ranks Wheeling Jesuit University 16th in the "Best MasterÂ’s Universities in the South," making it the highest ranked institution in West Virginia for the seventh consecutive year. Wheeling Jesuit--the only Catholic institution of higher education in West Virginia--offers more than 30 undergraduate programs of study and six graduate degrees to about 1,500 students each year. It has a student-to-faculty ratio of 13 to 1, and 17 intercollegiate NCAA Division II athletic teams. The 65-acre campus located in Wheeling, W. Va., includes 15 modern buildings, multi-million dollar Acker Science Center, and residence halls, and a modern recreation and athletic facility that includes a soccer/track and field complex.

Reviewers Comments:

An excellent guide to assist organisations to help people reach a state where work becomes a healthy, balanced aspect of life, and the organisation grows as a sustainable creator of wealth.
Dr Paul Donaldson
Chairman of Sysco Management Consultants Limited

Once again, Mike Wash provides telling insights from his great practical experience in identifying the symptoms shown by unhealthy organisations and guiding them towards a healthy future.
Professor Tom McGuffog MBE

Mike Wash is the kind of person who helps others to reach inside, find hidden resources, pull them out and point them in the right direction, to produce great results in life and business. In this rich and accessible book he helps the reader to understand the principles of how to work in an effective, ethical and holistic way - if you work in any kind of human resources - you will want to read this book now!
Dr Janice Russell, Module Leader
University of Hull Coaching Masters Course

Having used the approaches described within this resource, and seen the benefits for individuals, team and the organisation as a result, I would say this is a must-have resource for any organisation development practitioner. Mike brings the subject matter to life in a very practical way.
Alison Johnson MSc, Assistant Director of Organisation Development
Halton and St Helens Primary Care Trust

I wish that I had access to this insightful book when I was a young manager who knew everything (!), but needed reference points and a counter-view. Come to think of it, I wish that I'd had it when I was an old manager!
Lawrence Jackson, Managing Director (Retired)
Gentech International Limited

This book helps managers to identify not just what needs to be done 'in the moment', but also how open and honest discussion between employees and employers can lead to what Mike Wash describes as 'organisational healing'. Though many of the situations and dialogues are fun to read, they also make the reader squirm with embarrassment from the sheer recollection of having heard these types of conversations before - and yet, done little to bring about learning and renewal in any real or meaningful way.

The 54 Approaches illustrate clearly what it takes to sustain health and wealth through the process of work.
Christopher Bunker, Head of HR Europe
Polaroid Corporation (Part of the Petters Group Worldwide)

This has all the most useful tools in the essential tool kit for someone new to the notion of manager as facilitator. This is essential organisational first aid to enable organisations to move toward greater health.
Bryce Taylor, Director
Oasis School of Human Relations

Mike Wash uses his vast experience of people, organisations and processes to enable the reader to enhance themselves, their organisations and their lives. This book will be invaluable for CEO's, MD's, coaches and anyone working, needing or choosing to heal their organisation. I shall recommend this to all my students as absolutely essential reading.
Dr Graham Dexter
