Exciting news! Today, The Store announced plans to open a second location on the campus of TriStar Centennial Medical Center to continue its mission of fighting food insecurity in Nashville. Brad Paisley and Kimberly Williams-Paisley are co-founders of The Store, a nonprofit organization that offers a free, referral-based grocery store to empower Nashville families and individuals in need. The Store’s unique model, which emphasizes dignity and choice, allows customers to select from a variety of nutritious foods, clothing and wrap-around services. This system of wrap-around services includes counseling, nutrition education and financial planning, making The Store a beacon of hope and care in our community. “As caregivers, our concern for the well-being of our community extends beyond our hospital doors,” said Tom Ozburn, president and CEO of TriStar Centennial Medical Center. “Through The Store, our care teams will have peace of mind knowing the community will have a resource close by that can help provide needed food and clothing.” For more information or to learn how to volunteer, visit thestore.org. 📷: From left to right: Collen Mayer, The Store CEO, Kimberly Williams-Paisley, Brad Paisley, Tom Ozburn, TriStar Centennial President & CEO #HealthierTomorrows

🐾 This #NationalDogDay, we’re shining a light on TriStar Centennial Medical Center and The Children’s Hospital At TriStar Centennial’s facility dog, Minnie Pearl. Minnie Pearl’s namesake holds special meaning to both our HCA Healthcare family and the Nashville, Tennessee community. “Minnie Pearl” was the stage name of world-renowned Grand Ole Opry character and television and radio personality, Sarah Cannon. After receiving treatment for breast cancer at the Sarah Cannon Cancer Network’s founding center in Nashville, she offered the use of her given name to promote cancer research and patient education with a vision of offering patients convenient access to early detection and clinical trials. HCA Healthcare’s Sarah Cannon Cancer Network now cares for communities across the U.S. and United Kingdom, forming one of the largest patient-centric clinical trial organizations in the world. In her first few months on the job, Minnie has already made a lasting impact at the Music City hospital and has quickly become a beloved member of the care team. She is a fixture at hospital events, and recently attended one thrown in her honor — her first birthday party. Thank you to our four-legged colleagues for serving as a source of joy within the walls of our hospitals. 📸 To celebrate National Dog Day, share a picture of your furry friend in the comment section! #PositiveImpact

The Children’s Hospital At TriStar Centennial held their 2024 NICU reunion and welcomed back NICU graduates and their families last month. Featuring an Under the Sea theme, the precious graduates were welcomed by The Little Mermaid's Ariel and Eric along with other well-known friends. The kids were able to reunite with their doctors and nurses and bounce in the “underwater” bounce houses. Best of all, faces were painted and many balloon sea creatures were created! We are proud to watch some of our littlest patients grow and cannot wait to see them all next year. They are a part of our world forever! 🧜♀️🐠 #NICUReunion2024

We are excited to announce the opening of our new location of the Centers for Clinical Advancement in Nashville, TN! Since 2019, HCA Healthcare has invested approximately $46 million to open new Centers for Clinical Advancement, with a current footprint of more than fifteen locations nationwide. The new location for the TriStar Division’s Center for Clinical Advancement offers additional space and the newest technology in a central location. Located in the heart of Nashville, this facility provides training for TriStar Health hospitals across Tennessee and southern Kentucky. The TriStar Division Center for Clinical Advancement is designed to bridge the gap between the classroom and bedside through practice-based instruction. The center uses leading technology and specialized manikins to simulate real-life scenarios nurses may experience at the bedside. State-of-the-art technology at the center also gives students opportunities to learn from clinical experts across the nation, and to record their simulations to play back scenarios and debrief with colleagues and trained facilitators to further advance their learning. Join us in celebrating the opening of our new facility! We look forward to fostering the development of nurses and medical professionals in the years ahead. #FutureOfHealthcare #HealthierTomorrows

Meet, Dalton! Dalton is 19 months old and was diagnosed with neuroblastoma in March. Neuroblastoma is a rare form of pediatric cancer. Dalton’s mom, Elizabeth, is an HCA Healthcare employee and says they’ve not only received an outpouring of love and support from their own community, but also from their HCA family. Dalton has a twin brother named Thomas, who Elizabeth says keeps Dalton energized and full of smiles, despite going through cancer treatment. "I've never worked somewhere before where an organization truly meets us where our need is at. I've had coworkers show up and volunteer at Dalton's fundraiser on their own time. I am really grateful and humbled by the support from HCA,” Elizabeth said. “Dalton and his family have such a positive mindset, taking it one step at a time and keeping their eye on the finish line," said Dr. Meghann McManus, a pediatric hematology/oncology specialist practicing at The Children’s Hospital At TriStar Centennial. "I love hearing about Dalton’s bond with his twin brother, Thomas. I know getting the brothers back together after a long hospital stay is just what Dalton needs to help him recover. We know that taking care of the whole family is so important and this is just one example of how family gives a patient the strength they need." TriStar Health is proud to be a part of HCA Healthcare, a collaborative and innovative healthcare network united by a singular mission: Above all else, we are committed to the care and improvement of human life. #CareLikeFamily #HCAHealthcare
