Memorial recently received full accreditation from the New Mexico Medical Society of our Continuing Medical Education (CME) program for the next 4 years. We earned a near-perfect survey with several outstanding citations including our thorough personnel documentation, expansion of our program offerings over the years, and the development of a strong curriculum that meets the needs of our community.

We received word last week from The Joint Commission (TJC) that our Surgical Weight Loss Program has officially earned certification as a “Disease Specific Program”. This is an important distinction earned only after a thorough on-site inspection by an independent surveyor who found that our program met their highest national standards.

Did you know that you can be seen right away at most of Memorial’s Family Care and Internal Medicine practices, even if you’re a new patient? That’s right, Memorial has added many new Physicians and Family Medicine Nurse Practitioners to our expanding care team so you can be seen when, and where, it’s most convenient.

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, hearts seem to be everywhere you look this time of year. That’s why it is especially fitting that February is American Heart Month, a time to raise awareness of heart disease and how we can help prevent it. It’s also the perfect opportunity to remind ourselves to take good care of our hearts year-round.

This weekend I was in Santa Fe along with our Chief Operating Officer, Steve Ruwoldt, and our Chief Nursing Officer, Caryn Iverson, to represent the interests of Southern New Mexico to the new legislators and Governor. Memorial is proud to be one of the major sponsors of the Greater Las Cruces Chamber of Commerce annual event, Las Cruces Days in Santa Fe. We feel that it is very important for those who govern our state to be aware of issues that affect our economy and, most certainly, access to health care in our region.
