There is a strong and spacious pier from which more than one fish has been caught. No, it is not a resort, Though its setting would lend itself nicely. It is not a military reservation, though it has served as one in the past. It is a distinctly different kind of place. It is the Veterans Administration Medical Center at Fort Howard, Maryland. Just as the scenic beauty of Fort Howard set it apart from other hospital locations, the real story reveals that it is the people who work here who make the distinct difference. There are 575 men and women who share in the provision of quality patient care for the men and women veterans who come here seeking help. Veterans like Toy Lark. Toy Lark comes from his home and lands down in Maryland for treatment and therapy twice a week at Fort Howard VA Medical Center. for an injury that happened on a dark night a long time ago in a place far away. As part of General George S. Patton's third army, Toy Lark, Sergeant Toy Lark, was leading his men against an enemy artillery position when a flare lit up the darkness and presented Sergeant Lark as a perfect target to an enemy automatic weapon. Sergeant Lark suffered wounds in the hip and abdomen. In spite of his wounds, Sergeant Lark and his men silenced the enemy weapons. and capture the German artillery piece. For his action, he was awarded the Silver Star and Purple Heart medals. Sergeant Lark spent the next 18 months in the hospital.

Some people refer to nursing as the nuts and bolts of hospitalization because nursing permeates the fabric of the hospital. Nurses are here around the clock, seven days a week. They coordinate whatever care really comes to the veteran patient or to any patient in any hospital for that matter. When I say they coordinate it, it is the nurse who is at the patient's bedside all the time. It is the nurse who identifies there's a change in this particular patient, what the change appears to be, what is the resource that needs to be brought into that patient, does it have to be a physician, should it be a social worker, are they not responding to their physical therapy, are they really upset and perhaps they need some more intervention from family, are they having a spiritual crisis. Whatever seems to be the need as identified by the nurse is the resource that is brought in to the patient. Some of this necessitates prior to bringing the resource to the patient, bringing in more medical intervention with the patient. Also the nurse, because they tend to be generalists in that they look at the total patient. They look at the patient from the psychological view, the social view, the nursing need, the medical need, uses their own ability as a generalist to identify and help the patient through whatever their need might be, recognizing that they have the support of the entire facility to meet whatever patient's needs are. I like to say that nurses put patients back together. We have specialists. we have. thoracic surgeons, and we have cardiologists, and we have physiatrists who are rehabilitative physicians, we have mental health specialists, these kinds of things, and each one comes and treats you. The cardiologist takes care of your heart, the surgeon cuts what needs to be cut, the the physiatrist looks at which muscle needs to be retrained and the nurse says it's okay. You're still John Jones and all of this is going to make you better.

At Fort Howard VA Medical Center, they help John Chaney literally to get back on his feet. And although still partially paralyzed, John Chaney not only delivers the mail at the Fort Howard Center, but also umpires at the softball games. John Chaney reflects not only individual determination, but also the best collective teamwork and patient care for which the Fort Howard VA Medical Center has become known. Many veterans treated here are not the result of wounds or accidents. Diabetes, heart, lung and kidney disease, victims of strokes, those with the diseases of the 80s and 90s will also find primary, non -surgical medical care here at Fort Howard. A modernized intensive care unit is equipped with a computerized monitoring system. Special patient needs are met by special units and include a respiratory care unit. Geriatric Evaluation Unit, Hemodialysis Unit, Pulmonary Function Lab, Alcohol Rehabilitation Unit, and Audiology and Speech Lab.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/144405/file/266887#t=880.1,956.18"},{"id":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/144405/file/266887/transcript/77089/annotation/31","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\u003cstrong\u003eSpeaker 9:\u003c/strong\u003e We're really living in a very unique period of time for hearing impaired people in general and one of the things that I try to impress upon my hearing impaired veterans is that there is no situation, no listening situation that they will find themselves in, that they cannot function in, if they want to. You want to listen to television, you want to go to a concert, you want to work in a factory with high noise. There is absolutely no situation today that cannot be... accommodated by modern hearing aids and by some of the techniques that we have developed in audiologic habilitation. Now, sometimes hearing aid alone is not gonna do the job. Sometimes you're gonna have to use assistive devices. I do point out to my patients that rather than having hearing be a hearing handicap, I have to try to get them to the point where hearing is. Hearing loss is only a hearing inconvenience. It will always be an inconvenience. We're never going to make it less than an inconvenience. But it doesn't have to be a handicap. There's absolutely no reason for it to be a handicap. And we can, with hearing aids and with the techniques we have, really achieve quite a bit with the veterans.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/144405/file/266887#t=957.52,1032.78"},{"id":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/144405/file/266887/transcript/77089/annotation/32","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\u003cstrong\u003eSpeaker 1:\u003c/strong\u003e Other medical center programs include a non -invasive cardiology lab, nuclear medicine, and extensive computer applications in medical care and information systems. As new needs arise, Fort Howard VA Medical Center is responding. With the increasing number of women veterans requiring medical care, this medical center has formed a gynecology services unit to meet their needs. The facility at Fort Howard consists of 226 hospital beds and a 47 -bed nursing home care unit. And in addition to its modern services and highly skilled medical and administrative staff, its standard of excellence in healthcare is further enhanced by the clinical affiliation with the Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions and the University of Maryland Medical Systems and their schools of medicine. With its picturesque setting and superb reputation and rehabilitation, internal medicine and long -term care services, this is the kind of place where if you were a qualified veteran and needed their kind of service, you wouldn't want to be anywhere else. Yes, there is a distinct difference here. At Fort Howard VA Medical Center, they care.
