Since 1980, obesity rates for adults in the U.S. have doubled and rates have tripled among children. In 2006, just six years ago, the Tennessee adult obesity rate was at 28.1%.

THE CHOICEIS YOURS!

IT IS IMPORTANT TO CONSIDER THE QUALITY OF CARE YOU RECEIVE FOR YOUR HEALTH CONDITIONS.

• The quality of care among different hospital facilities can vary widely.

• If you do not look at quality ratings you are more likely to make a poor choice.

• Quality information can be used to help loved ones make a choice, or to start a conversation with your doctor.

THE 3 P’S OF HEALTHY EATING ON A BUDGET: PLAN, PURCHASE & PREPAREKnow how much money you have to spend and make a list based on your budget. Consider what meals you can make with the foods you already have; just buy the missing ingredients!

Only buy the amount of fresh foods you can use before it spoils and focus on what is in season. Consider frozen fruits and vegetables that last longer and cost less.

Freeze food right away to preserve freshness. Use left overs in another recipe. Prepare double or triple batches of a recipe and freeze for another day.Source: USDA

I CHOOSEMY HEALTH

A heAlth success story from

JO ANNE: After years of struggling with severe back pain and high blood pressure, I had enough. Not only did I want to quit living in pain, I wanted to be more active with my grandkids and in my church. With the encouragement of my health coach, I approached my physician for a plan. We came up with a nutritional plan specifically for me. I cut out all processed foods. I was done with eating junk. My diet consists mostly of fresh fruits and vegetables, legumes and lean meats. We identified gluten intolerance, and I also increased my water intake. I began using an exercise ball to strengthen my upper body and the treadmill for a cardiovascular workout. Today I have lost 50 pounds and feel great! My back pain is under control. My blood pressure and cholesterol are lower, and I have more energy and confidence than ever before!

H O W C A N I G E TMY CHILD ACTIVE & KEEP IT THAT WAY• Set a positive example

• Take kids to the park or other places where they can be active

• Make it a part of your family’s daily routine—after dinner walks, playing active games together

• Make it fun!

the information provided in this report allows you to compare and locate the right care for you and your family, much like you would use a consumer report to compare cars, computers or televisions.

Hospitals in this guide are tiered according to their leapfrog never events score.

never events - Four bars indicates the hospital has agreed to Leapfrog’s Never Events policy. Never Events are outcomes that should not occur while you are in the hospital. Examples are surgery on the wrong body part or discharging an infant to the wrong family.

Steps to avoid Harm - Patients should choose a hospital with a high score in this category. High scores indicate the hospital has put into place procedures to reduce common, preventable medical mistakes.

Prevent medication errors - Patients should choose a hospital that uses computer prescriber order entry (CPOE) to order medications, tests and procedures to avoid errors.

appropriate iCU Staffing - Patients should choose a hospital with an intensive care unit (ICU) staffed by doctors and other caregivers that have received specialized training in critical care.

Use this guide to select a hospital with a lot of experience and the best results for the procedure, surgery or condition you have or need.

the following treatment scores are based on a combination of quality and costs:

Heart Bypass Surgery - This surgery improves blood flow into the heart by adding a new artery for blood to “bypass” clogged arteries. A volume of 450+ is better.

Heart angioplasty - Angioplasty improves blood flow into the heart by reopening a clogged artery such as coronary angioplasties and stents. Volume of 400+ is better.

Heart attacks - A Heart Attack occurs when an artery is blocked and blood cannot move through the artery to the heart.

Pneumonia - A very serious infection for patients in the hospital.

the following treatments are based on the quality of care provided:

High risk Deliveries - Births in which infants are predicted to weigh less than 1500 grams at birth. These infants are usually cared for in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). 50+ is better.

Weight loss Surgeries - (on the stomach and/or intestines) A surgery that can help a patient with extreme obesity lose weight. Bariatric surgery is a weight-loss method used for people classified as being morbidly obese. 125+ is better.
