SSM Health

Gary Chan, VP and Chief Information Security Officer for SSM Health, receives a certificate from an FBI agent after completing a weeklong session at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Va., on cybersecurity. Every year, the government selects about 25 cybersecurity representatives who are U.S. citizens to join them for the FBI CISO Academy. a weeklong discussion on national cybersecurity. As foreign powers develop weapons against 16 defined U.S. critical infrastructure sectors (such as banking, utilities, and healthcare), the federal government works to build relationships with cybersecurity leaders in these areas. These relationships can shape federal policy, resulting in shared intelligence for all.

As many physicians reach retirement age, health care systems have to ask "who will take their place?" SSM Health believes that by training the next generation of physicians we can better serve our patients for generations to come. https://lnkd.in/gSe5tnU8

According to the The National Institutes of Health, more than half of family physicians end up practicing medicine within 100 miles of where they trained. That's why SSM Health is invested in growing the next crop of rural medicine providers through programs like the Family Medicine Rural Residency and Emergency Medicine Fellowship at our hospital in Monroe, Wisconsin. https://lnkd.in/gs2TcCZY

This morning, SSM Health leaders, the mayor of O’Fallon and community members, celebrated with a ribbon cutting ceremony for the new SSM Health Outpatient Center in O’Fallon, MO. Opening on October 21, patients can receive urgent care, see their primary care provider, complete imaging and lab testing, consult with specialist, and fill their prescriptions-under one roof. Located along the I-64 corridor, it will serve all of St. Charles County, Warren and Lincoln Counties, Chesterfield, and beyond providing adults and children expanded access to the comprehensive health care services they need. At SSM Health, we believe serving our communities is both a privilege – and a sacred responsibility. #SSMHealth #StCharlesRegion #139YearsAndGrowing
