On April 22 we had a pipe elbow failure in our Emergency Department (ED) causing a significant water leak. Crews are assessing the impact and we are in the process of water abatement. Our ED is open, but several rooms are currently offline which could increase wait times. Some surgeries are also being rescheduled.
Starting July 1, the Infectious Disease Clinic will move from Primary Care to Specialty Care to better reflect the services it provides.
As part of this transition, we’re happy to welcome Kimberly Fernandez Jones as the new manager. Kimberly has been a valued leader at Valley for many years, most recently managing the Pulmonary & Sleep Disorder Clinic, which she will continue to oversee.
Thank you to Denise Martel for her leadership of the Infectious Disease Clinic. Denise will continue in her role managing the Cascade Clinic and Senior Care & Internal Medicine Clinic.
Please join us in welcoming Kimberly to her new role and thanking Denise for her continued support. If you have any questions about the transition, you can contact me, Kimberly, or Denise.
