Methodist's Wound Treatment Center team of physician specialists and nurses helps patients with conditions such as diabetic wounds, venous stasis ulcers and radiation wounds. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is one of several advanced treatment options available at the center. HBOT stimulates the formation of new blood vessels, improves flow of oxygen to tissues and increases formation of fibrous tissues, helping patients recover from non-healing wounds. Methodist's Family Birthing Center is a 19-bed unit with four additional triage rooms. The center's birthing suites feature the comforts of home. In addition their welcoming appearance, the suites are high-tech delivery rooms with state-of-the-art monitoring and life support systems. The hospital celebrated 454 births in 2024.Methodist operates three Hospitality Houses which provide free temporary lodging to cancer patients and their families who must travel to Oak Ridge for extended treatment. The houses also are available to other patients needing long-term treatment as space allows. In 2024, 112 guests were served, and 4,026 nights of stay were donated for an approximate value of $624,030.To help those less fortunate, the hospital also partners with the Free Medical Clinic to provide 2,000 free tests and procedures each year to community members in need. Methodist's collaborative Community Health Needs Assessment with Ridgeview Behavioral Health targets issues around mental health and substance abuse, including the MIST (Mothers and Infants Sober Together) program for pregnant women and young mothers struggling with addiction.IMPROVING THE COMMUNITY'S QUALITY OF LIFE THROUGH BETTER HEALTHMethodist has comprehensive health education programs for patients, their families, and the community at large. While many of the medical center's classes and activities are tailored for young families, it also offer health management classes and support groups for adults of all ages; smoking cessation and exercise classes for people who want to make important lifestyle changes; workshops for young people, and special events for the entire community. One such program is the medical center's "MED Talk" series, a partnership between Methodist Medical Center and Oak Ridge Senior Center. In 2024, the series offered programming covering a range of topics including cognitive health, atrial fibrillation, urology basics and general benefits of physical activities for continued quality of life and longevity.For initiatives geared toward younger audiences, Methodist collaborated with the Children's Museum of Oak Ridge's "Wonderful Wednesday" program to provide information to campers and field trip students about dialing 911, knowing the signs of a stroke, simple first aid and the art of putting on scrubs. Additionally, Methodist nursing educators partnered with area school systems to provide hands-on education related to the dangers of vaping to nearly 2,000 middle and high school students. By working together with local high schools and colleges, Methodist is providing expanded opportunities for students interested in learning more about the exciting field of medicine. The Health Sciences Academy with Oak Ridge High School is a multi-path program that prepares students to move seamlessly into postsecondary education or the healthcare work force. To encourage and nurture those interested in healthcare, Methodist's Volunteer organization awarded a $15,000 donation to Roane State Community College. This latest donation follows a rich tradition of support started by Methodist's Volunteer Organization more than 20 years ago, when it launched a six-year scholarship program for graduating high school seniors in the hospital's five-county service area: Anderson, Roane, Morgan, Campbell and Scott counties. The scholarships were for $1,000 each and were renewable for an additional year if the students remain in good academic standing and continued to pursue a career in healthcare. A similar donation was made in 2019 and 2023. The volunteers have continued the tradition in 2024.Expenses $186,784,860 · grants $32,422 · revenue $182,713,236
