PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE FOR THE BEAUMONT AND ORANGE FACILITIES INCLUDES BOTH INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT ROUTINE AND ANCILLARY REVENUE. FOR OVER SIXTY YEARS, BHSET HAS BEEN DEDICATED TO PROVIDING QUALITY HEALTH SERVICES IN A CHRISTIAN ENVIRONMENT. OUR PARTNERS IN CARING - OUR PHYSICIANS, OUR NURSES AND STAFF - PRACTICE A PHILOSOPHY THAT INSPIRES AN ENVIRONMENT OF TEAMWORK, RESPECT, ENCOURAGEMENT, OPPORTUNITY AND TRUST. OUR EFFORTS CONTINUE EACH DAY AS WE STRIVE TO OFFER NEWER AND BETTER PROGRAMS, SERVICES AND TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY. WITH A COMMITMENT TO EXCEED CUSTOMER EXPECTATIONS THROUGH DISTINGUISHED QUALITY, SAFETY, CUSTOMER SERVICE, SPIRITUAL VALUES, OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE AND INNOVATION IN MEETING THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF THOSE BEING SERVICED, PLANS FOR ADDITIONAL SERVICES BECAME A REALITY. CANCER SERVICES FOR SOUTHEAST TEXAS BEGAN IN 1990 WHEN THE BEN AND JULIE ROGERS CANCER INSTITUTE WAS DEDICATED TO PROVIDING OUTPATIENT CHEMOTHERAPY AS WELL AS INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT RADIATION THERAPY SERVICES. EACH YEAR ADVANCEMENTS CONTINUE IN GROWTH AND IMPROVEMENTS INCLUDING CONSTRUCTION OF THE NEW BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL, WHICH INCLUDED ADDING APPROXIMATELY 160,000 SQUARE FEET TO THE EXISTING EAST CAMPUS. THE INNOVATIVE ADDITION WOULD INCLUDE ADDITIONAL INTENSIVE CARE AND TELEMETRY ROOMS AND A NEW EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT THAT INCREASED THE NUMBER OF PATIENTS WHO CAN BE SERVED TO 90,000 PER YEAR. THE NEW CONSTRUCTION ALSO INCLUDED NEW SURGERY SUITES, ENDOSCOPY, CATHETERIZATION LABS, IMAGING DEPARTMENT, OUTPATIENT HOLDING AREA, HOSPITAL CAFETERIA, CHAPEL, PHARMACY, AND GIFT SHOP. ANOTHER 52,000 SQUARE FEET OF RENOVATIONS WERE COMPLETED PROVIDING NEW GASTROINTESTINAL LABS, A NEW LABORATORY, REHABILITATION UNIT, PULMONARY FUNCTIONS LAB AND DAY SURGERY UNITS. WITH THE COMPLETION OF THE 'NEW CITY OF HEALING' IN 2003, THE EXPANSION OF SERVICES WAS AT THE HEART OF THE ORGANIZATION. FOCUSING ON THE SMALLEST MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, THE CHILDREN'S UNIT AT BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL ORIGINATED - PROVING CARING FOR KIDS IS JUST THE RIGHT SIZE AT BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL. MEETING THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF CHILDREN, THE FIRST CERTIFIED CHILD LIFE SPECIALIST WAS ADDED TO HELP CHILDREN FROM INFANTS TO TEENS AND THEIR FAMILIES COPE WITH A HOSPITAL EXPERIENCE. THE CHILD LIFE SPECIALIST PROVIDES EMOTIONAL AND DEVELOPMENTAL SUPPORT WHILE GIVING HONEST INFORMATION GEARED TO A CHILD'S LEVEL OF UNDERSTANDING AND, OF COURSE, PLENTY OF CHILD'S PLAY! WITH OVER 40 MILLION PEOPLE FEELING EXHAUSTED BECAUSE THEY ARE EXPERIENCING A SLEEP DISORDER, BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL PROUDLY ANNOUNCED THE SLEEP CENTER LOCATED AT THE MAIN CAMPUS. CHRONIC SLEEP DISORDERS CAN DISTURB FAMILY LIFE, AFFECT PRODUCTIVITY AT WORK AND EVEN RESULT IN DEATH. THE SLEEP CENTER WAS ESTABLISHED TO PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE CARE TO PATIENTS WHO ARE EXPERIENCING SLEEP PROBLEMS. SOME OF THE MOST COMMON DISORDERS INCLUDE: SLEEP APNEA, NARCOLEPSY, RESTLESS LEG SYNDROME AND INSOMNIA. BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL'S WOUND HEALING AND BARIATRIC CENTER PROVIDES COMPREHENSIVE, OUTPATIENT WOUND CARE SERVICES, INCLUDING HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY. THE CENTER UTILIZES A MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO WOUND CARE BY COORDINATING THE EFFORTS OF MULTIPLE SPECIALTIES TRAINED TO TREAT PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC OR NON-HEALING WOUNDS. THE CENTER IS STAFFED BY PHYSICIANS IN THE FOLLOWING SPECIALTIES: FAMILY MEDICINE, INFECTIOUS DISEASE, PODIATRY, AND THORACIC/VASCULAR SURGERY. THE CERTIFIED PROGRAM IS COMPLIANT WITH THE MOST STRINGENT STANDARDS OF PERFORMANCE. BY UTILIZING THE RIGOROUS STANDARDS AND CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINES, SUPERIOR CARE IS PROVIDED TO THE COMMUNITY. THE WOUND HEALING AND BARIATRIC CENTER HAS RECEIVED THE GOLD SEAL OF APPROVAL IN DISEASE STATE MANAGEMENT FROM THE JOINT COMMISSION ON ACCREDITATION OF HOSPITAL ORGANIZATIONS. OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS, ADDITIONAL PROGRAMS AND SERVICES SUCH AS THE STRYKER NAVIGATION TECHNOLOGY HAVE BEEN ADDED TO COMPLEMENT THE SERVICES PROVIDED AT BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL. THE STRYKER NAVIGATION SYSTEM OFFERS A TECHNOLOGY OPTION THAT HELPS FACILITATE ACCURATE IMPLANT ALIGNMENT AND PROPER LIGAMENT BALANCING, WHICH ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT PREREQUISITES FOR THE ARTIFICIAL KNEE JOINT STABILITY, DURABILITY AND SUFFICIENT RANGE OF MOTION. NAVIGATED TOTAL KNEE REPLACEMENT IS AN EXTREMELY SUCCESSFUL WAY TO TREAT QUALIFYING PATIENTS WITH SEVERE KNEE PAIN. THE NEW SURGICAL NAVIGATION TECHNOLOGY THAT IS NOW IN PLACE GREATLY ENHANCES THE ABILITY TO RESTORE RANGE OF MOTION, OVERALL FUNCTION AND RETURNS PATIENTS TO NORMAL ACTIVITIES. AT BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL, THE NEWEST ARRIVAL TO WOMEN'S SERVICES IS THE 'HUGS AND KISSES' INFANT PROTECTION SYSTEM. LOCATED IN THE PEDIATRIC AND WOMEN'S SERVICES UNIT, AN ADVANCED SYSTEM HAS BEEN IMPLEMENTED FOR ENSURING THE SAFETY OF BABIES, HELPING TO ENSURE THAT A BABY IS MATCHED WITH ITS OWN MOTHER WHEN BROUGHT TO A ROOM FROM THE NURSERY AND THAT ONLY AUTHORIZED INDIVIDUALS MOVE A BABY THROUGH THE UNITS. THE VERICHIP RADIO TRANSMITTER IS PLACED ON THE BABY'S ANKLE. WITH A WIRELESS SYSTEM IN PLACE THROUGHOUT THE AREA, 'HUGS' POLLS THE BABY'S MOTIONS EVERY SEVEN SECONDS TO DETERMINE THE EXACT LOCATION OF THE INFANT IN RELATION TO AN ELECTRONIC FLOOR PLAN THAT IS OBSERVED BY HOSPITAL STAFF. IN MAY 2006 THE NEW DAUPHIN CANCER SCREENING AND PREVENTION CENTER PARTNERED WITH THE JULIE AND BEN ROGERS CANCER INSTITUTE OPENED TO THE COMMUNITY. A FIRST IN SOUTHEAST TEXAS, THE CENTER OFFERS SCREENING TESTS FOR PROSTATE CANCER AND BREAST CANCER ALONG WITH PREVENTION PROGRAMS. THE DAUPHIN CENTER WAS THE FIRST IN THE AREA TO OFFER DIGITAL MAMMOGRAM IN SOUTHEAST TEXAS. IN 2007 THE TEXAS NURSES ASSOCIATION (TNA), A STATEWIDE PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATION OF REGISTERED NURSES, ANNOUNCED THE NEW ADDITIONS TO THE LIST OF HOSPITALS IN TEXAS TO EARN THE NURSE-FRIENDLY HOSPITAL DESIGNATION. AWARDED ONLY TWICE A YEAR, THE TNA'S NURSE-FRIENDLY HOSPITAL DESIGNATION NOW BELONGS TO THE BAPTIST BEAUMONT CAMPUS. THE NEWEST RECIPIENTS JOIN ONLY THIRTY-ONE OTHER HOSPITALS FROM THE STATE'S 581 IN ATTAINING THE THREE-YEAR DESIGNATION. THIS AWARD TELLS THE COMMUNITY THAT BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL IS COMMITTED TO THE HIGHEST QUALITY OF PATIENT CARE AND IT TELLS NURSES THAT THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES THE TYPE OF ENVIRONMENT THAT ALLOWS NURSES TO PRACTICE EXCELLENT PRACTICE CARE. LATER THE SAME YEAR, THE GREATER BEAUMONT CHAMBER OF COMMERCE RECOGNIZED BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL FOR ITS LONG-TIME COMMITMENT TO SOUTHEAST TEXAS WHEN IT ANNOUNCED THE BEAUMONT FACILITY HAD BEEN RECOGNIZED AS THE RECIPIENT OF THE 2007 SPINDLETOP AWARD. RECOGNITION WAS GIVEN FOR THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS WITH THE NEW EXPANSION AND THE LEVEL OF HEALTH CARE PROVIDED TO THE COMMUNITY. BAPTIST HOSPITAL'S AWARD-WINNING CARE IS COMPLEMENTED BY BEING CERTIFIED AS AN ADVANCED PRIMARY STROKE CARE CENTER BY THE JOINT COMMISSION FOR DISEASE-SPECIFIC CARE. THE STROKE PROGRAM AT BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED FOR EXCEPTIONAL EFFORTS TO FOSTER BETTER OUTCOMES FOR STROKE PATIENTS. THE STROKE PROGRAM HAS PARTNERED WITH LOCAL VENDORS, MEDICAL PERSONNEL AND PHYSICIANS TO ESTABLISH THE NEW STROKEWISE SUPPORT GROUP DESIGNED TO PROVIDE STROKE SURVIVORS AND THEIR FAMILIES A WAY TO MEET OTHER STROKE SURVIVORS OR CAREGIVERS. BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL'S FOCUS ON INNOVATION IMPLEMENTED THE MEDIVANCE'S COOLING TECHNOLOGY. THE ARCTIC SUN THERAPEUTIC TEMPERATURE MANAGEMENT DEVICE, THE ONLY ONE IN SOUTHEAST TEXAS, IS A PRECISE NONINVASIVE PATIENT COOLING DEVICE THAT IS USED AT MORE THAN SEVENTY PERCENT OF THE NATION'S TOP HOSPITALS. THE NEWEST MEMBER OF THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT IS THE RP-6 MOBILE ROBOT SYSTEM, MADE BY INTOUCH HEALTH, THE ROBOT ALLOWS DOCTORS TO 'VIRTUALLY' CONSULT WITH PATIENTS, FAMILY MEMBERS, AND HEALTH CARE STAFF AT A MOMENT'S NOTICE, EVEN IF MILES AWAY FROM THE HOSPITAL. THE RP-6 WILL ALLOW PHYSICIANS IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO PATIENTS IN SITUATIONS WHERE TIME IS CRITICAL. THE HOSPITAL WAS ALSO RECOGNIZED BY THE TEXAS HEALTH CARE QUALITY IMPROVEMENT AWARD PROGRAM WITH THE AWARD OF EXCELLENCE. OTHER AWARDS INCLUDE THE 2005 PRESS GANEY COMPASS AWARD PRESENTED TO BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL FOR OUTSTANDING IMPROVEMENT IN PATIENT SATISFACTION.

Our dedication to improve the health of the community that we serve leads us to support many community projects through funding or donated hours. During the 2024 - 2025 fiscal year, BHSET contributed to community agencies in the amount of $101,634 for sponsorships, donations of funds, supplies, testing and the labor of our employees. (See listing of philanthropic contributions on pgs 3-4 ) BHSET supports the community through blood drives in conjunction with LifeShare, collecting 126 units in the fiscal year 2024-2025, and we also collected toys, clothes and gift cards for 150 children, seniors and cancer patients for the holiday season. We continue proudly providing support groups for patients and families including Diabetes, Bariatrics and Childbirth Education, and in 2024 re-launched our Cancer support group for survivors and families. The Department of Religion at BHSET provides numerous benefits to patients, family members and the community at large. The chaplains provide financial assistance through the Chaplain's Emergency Fund. In the fiscal year 2024-2025, $30,085.97 was donated for medicine, food, housing and travel to 613 patients and family members throughout Southeast Texas. Additionally, the chaplains provide sessions of pastoral counseling to individuals in the community, and have continued the Pastors' Roundtable to educate local church leaders on emerging medical issues in our community and new technologies offered. We have a long history of providing free education and screenings to promote a healthier community, regardless of the ability to pay. From free immunizations to PSA checks and mammograms, reduced cost lung cancer screenings, and our strong focus on education and awareness about HIV, we provide extensive testing for the residents of Southeast Texas. In collaboration with the Public Health Department, 21,270 HIV screens were provided with 311 positives identified and linked to continued care, and HCV testing to 16,402 individuals resulted in 286 positives linked to continuation of care. Testing is provided at no cost regardless of ability to pay. Additionally, BHSET participates in the Julie Rogers Gift of Life Mammogram Program, established in 1993 as a collaborative effort between the Julie & Ben Rogers Cancer Institute, BHSET, and the University of Texas Medical Branch. The Gift of Life has made mammography services available to women/men in need but were unable to obtain the procedure due to financial limitations or other constraints. Since the inception of this program, over 31,100 free mammograms have been provided to women/men in Southeast Texas. During fiscal year 2024 - 2025, 1,329 mammograms were provided at Baptist Beaumont Hospital and Baptist Orange Hospital, an increase of over 10% from our last fiscal year. Taking healthcare a step further, the Baptist SmartHealth Clinic continues operation, treating uninsured or underinsured patients identified through our screening programs on ways to manage chronic health conditions. BHSET continues to increase our presence and establish our organization as a community leader through partnerships and collaborations, and by offering numerous classes, speakers and informational activities. Hospital personnel are available as speakers for civic groups, industrial partners, media appearances and health fairs to address the health needs of our community defined by our Community Health Needs Assessment. In fiscal year 2024-2025, BHSET provided information needed to make healthy lifestyle choices to 48,441 individuals. (See listing of educational endeavors pg 5) The hospital utilizes social media platforms with 19,674 followers (year over year increase of 10%) and multiple websites to connect with the public, educating and encouraging awareness of disease processes and how to be a healthier community. Physicians and staff participate in roundtable discussions, PSA videos, healthcare panels, Rotary meetings, news stories and public events to promote education, prevention, and treatment initiatives. Baptist hosted the Alzheimer's Association Jefferson County Community Forum with 24 area health care leaders engaged in discussion on education and sponsorship for families affected by Alzheimer's, and had several participants in the community Suicide Prevention walk. We also reached out to patients in the Vidor community with a ribbon cutting for a new Primary Care clinic, and participated in a community-wide baby shower designed to equip families with needed essentials following their newest addition. Employees and Lamar baseball fans gathered at a home stadium game to support cancer survivors and promote colon cancer awareness, and one of our Cardiologists held a Grand Rounds lecture to educate healthcare workers on the diagnosis and management of peripheral vascular disease. We continued our Partners in Education Program that establishes a relationship between BHSET and local elementary and high schools including Regina-Howell Elementary, Nederland High School, Orangefield High School, Hamshire-Fannett ISD, Westbrook High School, All Saints Episcopal School and the Texas Academy for HS students at Lamar University. BHSET contributes to both students and staff by providing donated hours for school events, hosting student tours and shadowing programs, providing flu vaccines and wellness information to staff, and also providing funding for school activities. BHSET attracts, recruits, and retains top clinical talent to ensure the long-term sustainability of healthcare services in our community. This year, we helped 10 physicians across five specialties establish practices locally, while continuing to promote our two medical residency programs and support the Baptist School of Radiologic Technology-an educational legacy spanning more than 75 years. BHSET also partners with Lamar University's Nursing Program and invests in workforce development through our Nursing Intern Program, which helps prepare new graduate nurses for successful careers in patient care. For over 75 years, BHSET has provided services to the nine-county area for which we serve. Meeting the community's needs has always been the underlying principle upon which this hospital was founded. BHSET continues to make fundamental differences in the general health and well-being of the communities we serve.
