Jerry Jones receives Governance Excellence Certificate

The Missouri Hospital Association has awarded a Governance Excellence certificate to Mr. Jerry Jones to acknowledge his completion of its’ new voluntary educational program for hospital board members. Mr. Jones was honored Thursday, June 14, 2012 at the MHA Leadership Forum in Branson, MO. Mr. Jones is a member of the Board of Directors of Bates County Memorial Hospital.

The Governance Excellence Certificate Program was launched in 2011 to enhance hospital trustees’ skills and provide them with increased knowledge of issues in hospital governance to help them make effective decisions for their organizations.

“Hospitals are complex organizations,” said Herb B. Kuhn, MHA president and CEO. “To add value to decisions about hospital operations and support a hospital’s work in the community, a trustee must have a thorough understanding of a range of responsibilities in governance practices and the integration of the hospital’s mission and values. The Governance Excellence Certificate Program is designed to expand trustees’ knowledge base and provide enhanced decision-making skills.”

To complete the certificate program, Mr. Jones was required to attend a day-long session at MHA’s annual convention in November, 2011 and complete six of eight independent study modules. A total of 40 trustees across the State (representing 19 hospitals) completed the certification program. Bates County Memorial Hospital is proud to have had a member of its’ Board of Directors complete this program.

The Missouri Hospital Association is a not-for-profit association in Jefferson City that represents 154 Missouri hospitals. In addition to representation and advocacy on behalf of its membership, the association offers continuing education programs on current health care topics and seeks to educate the public, as well as legislative representatives, about health care issues.

Apartment fire in Butler

Update 10:57- Fire crews appear to have the fire under control at this time.

Survey verbiage draws fire from readers

The proposed horse (slaughtering/processing) plant in Rockville is clearly a topic of sensitive nature and we at Bates County Live are making every attempt to post information that is the least biased and most factual as possible.

Last week we placed a survey on our home page that was simply intended to find out if individuals were FOR or AGAINST the plant coming to Rockville without trying to sway answers either way.

At the urging of some of our readers, we'd like to let you know in advance that we will be running the survey again, using slightly different wording. When that survey is complete we will run a story with thoughts about how a simple word change could affect the outcome.

Thanks- Doug Mager, Editor
