A fin de vacunar rápidamente a más residentes del condado de Washoe mayores de 70 años, Renown Health se ha asociado con el Distrito de Salud del Condado de Washoe para ayudar a distribuir los suministros limitados inicialmente disponibles de vacunas contra la COVID-19. Due to the unprecedented demand of local residents, Renown now has a full “waiting list” for those interested in the COVID-19 vaccine, and will be working through the list to offer appointments as they become available.  Renown continues to vaccinate physicians and its essential workforce for COVID-19, and to provide nasal swab testing for those with a lab order from their provider, for COVID-19 symptoms. Además, Renown ha ampliado su apoyo al Distrito de Salud del Condado de Washoe para satisfacer las necesidades de las personas mayores de 70 años que ahora son elegibles para recibir una vacuna contra la COVID-19. Durante el pasado fin de semana, más de 3,000 de los residentes más longevos del condado de Washoe pudieron obtener una cita y recibir su primera dosis de la vacuna contra la COVID-19 en la clínica de vacunación contra la COVID-19 al paso de Renown. Please see b-roll, photos and fly-over footage here. Eligibility is one thing; availability is another. El condado le proporcionó a Renown otras 3,000 vacunas para administrar este fin de semana. Renown publicó 3,000 citas disponibles para los inscritos en la lista de espera electrónica de MyChart y el 100 % de las citas se reservaron en una hora. “We want to help the Health District, and we are working to vaccinate as many people as possible, given our limited staffing, volunteers, space and vaccine,” says Melodie Osborn, RN, Chief Nursing & Quality Officer for Health Services. “We are glad to step in and help; and our goal is to always provide an exceptional vaccine experience. Our team and our systems are definitely feeling the pressure as we see unprecedented demand for this vaccine. We ask the public to be patient with us, and to help support us in this important work.” Scheduling limited Both the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines require two doses, the second administered three to four weeks after the first. Renown is working to be sure those who receive their first dose also obtain their second dose in a timely manner. Esto incluye a 7,000 médicos y trabajadores de la atención médica, y ahora incluirá a los adultos mayores vacunados con la primera dosis. La complejidad de los requisitos de dosificación de las vacunas sigue reduciendo el número de vacunas y citas disponibles. Los sistemas telefónicos y de MyChart de Renown se ven afectados por la demanda El jueves pasado, cuando Renown anunció que los mayores de 75 años podían inscribirse en la lista de espera al descargar Renown EPIC MyChart, se conectaron tantas personas que el sistema se vio sobrecargado para dar cabida a la demanda adicional. Renown ahora ha duplicado la capacidad del sistema EPIC MyChart para asegurarse de que todo fluya sin problemas. Renown Health ha sido capaz de distribuir y administrar la vacuna contra la COVID-19 a un número récord de personas en el menor tiempo posible. Gran parte de este éxito se debe al uso de EPIC MyChart, un conveniente registro médico electrónico del paciente que permite a las personas programar sus citas en línea, completar el formulario de consentimiento y tener documentación completa para el futuro. In addition, the information automatically posts to Web IZ Nevada’s Statewide Immunization Information System. Also last Thursday, older adults without cell phones, computers or someone to assist them, called Renown’s customer service phone line for assistance. So many people called the phone line that it crashed. Service has been restored, but is limited, due to the hundreds of calls coming in daily that are answered by a limited number of trained staff members. Medically-trained vaccinators needed To expand capacity and to assist in the administration of vaccines, Renown Health is seeking those who are medically trained to give vaccinations to join their team on a seasonal basis to support the health and well-being of our community. Las personas capacitadas e interesadas pueden presentar su solicitud en línea en https://careers.renown.org/ Regístrese en MyChart, que le pondrá en la lista de espera para recibir la vacuna Renown anima a cualquier persona interesada en ingresar en la lista de espera a que obtenga una cuenta de Renown MyChart si aún no lo ha hecho. Al hacerlo, se le añadirá a la lista de personas mayores de 70 años que esperan una cita para recibir la vacuna contra la COVID-19. Please do not contact a Renown doctor/health care provider at this time to schedule a vaccine appointment. Due to unprecedented demand, Renown is coordinating with local and state agencies to ensure every person has an opportunity to receive the vaccine over time.  You are advised not to receive the vaccine if: está enfermo al momento de la vacunación (fiebre, falta de aire, vómitos, diarrea o enfermedad aguda); se le ha diagnosticado COVID-19 en los últimos 14 días; recibió alguna otra vacuna en los últimos 14 días; tiene antecedentes de reacción alérgica considerable a esta vacuna o a cualquiera de sus componentes. Apoye a al equipo de Renown Renown Health, una organización benéfica sin fines de lucro, agradece profundamente el apoyo de la comunidad en estos momentos sin precedentes.

Renown Health seeks partnerships to help improve the health and well-being of all northern Nevadans. El proceso de solicitud para la financiación del evento estará abierto desde ahora hasta el 30 de abril. Renown Health’s mission is to make a genuine difference in the health and well-being of people and communities. Renown is seeking to partner with other non-profit organizations focused on inspiring better health in Nevada, and to help fund their efforts. “Improving the health and wellness of an entire population of people is not easy. It is a huge task. At Renown, we believe it is a battle worth fighting. We focus on preventing illnesses, and we are working across the state with partners who believe in our mission- to keep people healthy, to make healthcare more accessible and affordable, and to achieve the vision of a healthy Nevada,” says Tony Slonim, MD, DrPH, President and CEO of Renown Health. Nevada continues to rank near the bottom of overall health rankings in the U.S., and suffers from high mortality rates for chronic conditions like heart disease, cancer and chronic respiratory disease. These staggering statistics have solidified Renown’s commitment to advancing equitable clinical care and improving the health and well-being of our community. “La atención médica clínica solo afecta a una pequeña parte del estado de salud de una persona, menos del 20 %. The larger influence comes from social determinants of health (SDoH), which are the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work and age. The specific factors that drive the greatest health improvements are health-related behaviors, socioeconomic factors and environmental factors. Each one of these determinants works independently and interacts with each other to affect your overall health status,” says Dr. Slonim. “It takes collaboration and dedication to make a difference, and we know our community is a healthier place for all, thanks to our partners’ remarkable contributions.” “Through its community development program, Renown strives to make real and positive change for real people in our community,” said Erica Murich, executive director of Truckee Meadows Tomorrow. “El apoyo de Renown nos ha permitido desarrollar y lanzar el portal de datos de la comunidad NevadaTomorrow.org, llevar a cabo nuestra increíblemente popular serie de conversaciones con la comunidad, y poner en marcha nuestro tan esperado informe de la comunidad que se publicará en otoño de 2021. Renown's generosity and willingness to build bridges and partnerships has made it possible for Truckee Meadows Tomorrow to not only survive these challenging times, but to thrive and grow.” “Even in the thick of the most trying year for the medical community, Renown never lost its focus on the partnerships it’s worked hard to build on behalf of a healthier, happier community,” said Fayth Ross, executive director of Urban Roots. “Hemos trabajado con Renown desde 2016, el punto medio de nuestros once años en la comunidad, y han sido fundamentales para ayudarnos a desarrollar nuestras ofertas: funding the creation of curriculum, helping source materials to build our farm, and the very ground the farm is on presently. Without their ability to see our mission is very clearly aligned with their own, I don’t know that Urban Roots would be in the same position it is today.” “We are so grateful to Renown Health for the community sponsorship,” said Sean Hill, vice president of advancement at Sierra Nevada Journeys. “This program provided us with start-up funding for a community needs assessment, a critical process we are undergoing to increase access to STEM and outdoor experiences for underrepresented kids and families in our community.” New to the funding application this year, all applicants will visit NevadaTomorrow.org to identify five data indicators that their organizations will use to help measure the impact of their event or program. Using this tool, applicants can access quality of life indicators—such as obesity, alcoholism, homelessness, or depression—and identify trends, challenges and opportunities in our local communities. “Every organization we support through our community events and project sponsorship makes a positive difference in our community,” said Annie Zucker, manager of community impact at Renown. “Now, every applicants is aligned to the same powerful national database to help identify credible national and state sources, down to census track level to drive their health improvement efforts and measure progress. Once their event or program is complete, they’ll be able to reflect back on the data and see the direct impact of their work. We are excited to see how they use their research to guide lasting change for our community.”  Over the years, Renown has supported hundreds of organizations throughout our community as they set out to enhance lives and create a lasting impact in the northern Nevada region. These organizations include Truckee Meadows Tomorrow, Urban Roots, Sierra Nevada Journeys, Boys & Girls Club of Western Nevada, Nevada Cancer Coalition, Girls on the Run, Nevada Humane Society and many others. En 2016, Renown comenzó a abordar las tasas excesivas de cáncer, enfermedad pulmonar y enfermedad cardíaca a través del lanzamiento del primer estudio de salud poblacional comunitario del país, llamado The Healthy Nevada Project®. To assure payment is not a barrier to health improvement, testing is offered at no charge to Nevadans. En 2019, el Healthy Nevada Project se expandió al sur de Nevada, en colaboración con el Centro Médico Universitario del Sur de Nevada en Las Vegas. Con 60,000 participantes en el estudio hasta la fecha, el Healthy Nevada Project® es el estudio genético con la mayor velocidad de inscripción en el país. The Project is also the first of its kind to return clinical results to study volunteers, which means participants can learn their genetic risks tied to heart disease and certain cancers, as well as lifestyle changes that could potentially help reduce their risk and prevent disease. El estudio de investigación sigue en curso y los kits de pruebas genéticas para el hogar aún están disponibles sin cargo para los nevadenses mayores de 18 en este sitio web. As a non-profit organization, Renown reinvests every dollar earned back to the community, in staffing, technology, treatments, training and research to improve health and prevent illness. En el año fiscal 2019, Renown invirtió casi el doble de lo que invirtió el hospital sin fines de lucro promedio en beneficios comunitarios, o casi $158 millones en educación sobre salud, apoyo a otras iniciativas comunitarias relacionadas con la salud sin fines de lucro y servicios de atención médica sin reembolso. En los últimos cinco años, Renown ha invertido más de $8 millones de dólares en subvenciones para la comunidad. Solo el año pasado, Renown destinó $1.5 millones de dólares en subvenciones comunitarias. “El largo legado de servicio de Renown, arraigado en Nevada, comenzó en 1862 como un hospital del condado, el Washoe Medical Center”, comenta David Hansen, director ejecutivo de Hometown Health. “Now, Renown Health, northern Nevada’s largest locally - governed, not-for-profit, integrated healthcare network serves the community by providing care through hospitals, medical offices, and our not- for-profit insurance plan, Hometown Health.” Funds are limited, and the organization is unable to approve every request. A request for sponsorship or funding must benefit the geographic area served by Renown Health or Hometown Health, relate to identified community health priorities and align with Renown’s mission, vision and values. A complete list of sponsorship criteria is found here. Any organization receiving previous funding needs to apply online each year for any new requests. Todas las solicitudes se realizan en línea entre el 1 de marzo y el 30 de abril de 2021.

Panda Express® locations support the healthcare needs of pediatric patients throughout northern Nevada. Renown Health Foundation is recognizing donations made by Panda Express® through its philanthropic arm, Panda Cares®, to young patients and their families receiving care at Renown Children’s Hospital. La generosidad de los clientes y asociados de Panda Express®, que fomentan el espíritu de dar e inspiran futuros más brillantes, se celebrará el sábado, 8 de agosto, en el aniversario de Panda Cares. Donations collected year-round at local Panda Express® locations have helped miracles happen for area children like Naomi Bakker, one of the smallest babies ever cared for in Renown’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Naomi nació con prematuridad extrema en 2015; pesó alrededor de 12 onzas al nacer y pasó 142 días en la NICU. Today, she shows few signs of her premature birth and enjoys playing with her brother and swimming – a remarkable feat considering she relied on an oxygen tank the first year of her life. Naomi’s parents credit physicians, nurses and the team at Renown Children’s Hospital for saving their daughter’s life. “We are privileged to witness miracles like Naomi every day,” said Max J. Coppes, M.D., Professor & Nell J. Redfield Chair of Pediatrics, Physician-in-Chief, Renown Children’s Hospital. “Not only does support from Panda Cares® help us improve the health and wellness of our local children, it equips our team with tools and resources to best serve our youngest community members and their families during a time of need.” Panda Express® realizará una recaudación de fondos virtual de un día el sábado, 8 de agosto. Cuando un cliente realice un pedido desde la aplicación móvil o desde la página web de Panda Express® con el código promocional “PandaCaresDay”, Panda donará el 28 % de las ventas online a Renown Children’s Hospital. “Over the years, the amazing people from Panda Express® and funds from Panda Cares have supported Renown Children’s Hospital through specialty equipment, a meeting room, and our Child Life program. Child Life Specialists are educated and clinically trained in the developmental impact of illness and injury. They do so much to help improve the patient and family care experience here at Renown,” said Tony Slonim, MD, DrPH, Renown’s President and CEO. “We are grateful for our partnership with the team at Panda Express, who are passionate about children’s health, and help us provide the highest level of care for children.” Renown se enorgullece de reconocer a Panda Express® por haber donado casi medio millón de dólares en donaciones desde 2008. Generous donations like this continue to help transform how Renown meets the most urgent needs of our community, inspires hope and saves lives, as northern Nevada’s only locally owned, not-for-profit integrated healthcare network. “Renown Health Foundation appreciates Panda Cares®’ generosity year after year, and the unwavering support of our community to make Saturday’s fundraiser a success,” said Greg Walaitis, Renown’s chief development officer. “Our hope is that you and your family can enjoy a nice meal from Panda Express® together, knowing your contribution makes it possible for champions like Naomi to grow up to be healthy and strong.” “Dirigidos por un equipo de 22 médicos pediátricos especialistas, los médicos clínicos de Renown Children’s atienden más de 50,000 visitas de pacientes al año, lo que ofrece un nivel excepcional de atención para ayudar a las familias. Como testimonio de la confianza de la comunidad en la atención prestada, y de nuestros generosos donantes, ahora atendemos a 9 de cada 10 niños aquí mismo, en el norte de Nevada. Formerly, families had to travel out of our area to receive pediatric specialty care,” said Larry Duncan, Vice President of Pediatrics and Surgery & Administrator, Renown Children's Hospital.       About Renown Children’s Hospital Renown Children’s Hospital is the only dedicated children’s hospital in northern Nevada, and offers a variety of programs and services designed specifically to care for the community's families.

Renown and many partners are working to help improve the health and well-being of northern Nevadans. Renown Health’s mission is to make a genuine difference in the health and well-being of people and communities. Yesterday, Reno’s only not-for-profit health system celebrated local organizations with grant funding for 2023 to improve the health and well-being of our community.    “Improving the health and wellness of an entire population of people is not easy. It is a huge task. Nevada continues to rank near the bottom of overall health rankings in the U.S. and suffers from high mortality rates for chronic conditions like heart disease, cancer, and chronic respiratory disease,” said Brian Erling, MD, MBA, President & CEO of Renown Health. “We must continue to work with partners in the field, who share our mission- to keep people healthy, to make healthcare more accessible and affordable, and to achieve the vision of a healthier Nevada.”  As a non-profit organization, Renown reinvests every dollar earned back to the community; in staffing, technology, treatments, training, and research to improve health and prevent illness. Yesterday, their senior leadership team took an hour to celebrate and support local not for profit partners for their efforts to improve the well-being of our community, with a boxed lunch, conversation, cake and therapy dogs from Renown’s volunteer program.  “Renown Health has long-standing commitment to the community spans more than 160 years,” said Suzanne Bharati Hendery, MA, APR, Chief Communications & Customer Experience Officer for Renown. “This commitment has grown and evolved through significant thought and care in considering our community’s most pressing health needs. One way this is done is through conducting a periodic, comprehensive Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA). The most current assessments were completed by an external health care consulting service working with Renown and include quantitative and qualitative data that serve to guide both our community benefit and strategic planning. Through the CHNA process, Renown Health has identified the greatest health needs among our communities, enabling Renown to ensure our resources are appropriately directed toward outreach, prevention, education, and wellness opportunities where the greatest impact can be realized.” Renown’s Community Benefit grant funding process for 2023 is now complete. This is the second year of Renown’s 3-year Community Health Needs Plan that seeks to improve the priorities of Healthy Behaviors; Immunizations and Infectious Diseases; Behavioral Health (Mental Health & Substance Abuse) and Youth & Adolescent Health.  The success of the health system’s partnerships in improving the health of Washoe County is measured in the health statistics and data that is reported at the local, state, and national level on the website, NevadaTomorrow.org.  Also attending the event were key members of the Renown Health team including; Christine Bosse, Chief Government Relations Officer; Paul Harris, Chief Legal Counsel; Dr. Paul Hauptman, Chief Academic Officer-Renown and Dean, UNR School of Medicine; Dr. Rahul Mediwala, CEO, Renown Medical Group; Chris Nicholas, CEO, Renown Regional Medical Center; Dr. Bill Plauth, Chief Medical Officer & Associate Dean Clinical Affairs at UNR Med; Chuck Podesta Chief Information Officer; Sandeep Randhawa, Chief People Officer; Bethany Sexton, CEO, Hometown Health; Greg Walaitis, Chief Development Officer; Sam Weller, CEO, Renown South Meadows Medical Center and Renown Rehabilitation Hospital.  The 74 non-profit local organizations awarded Community Health grants or sponsorships by Renown Health for 2023 include: 1.

A highlight of the hope and determination, including some of the most remarkable and meaningful milestones, that took place at Renown over the past year. El 25 de febrero de 2020, los líderes de Renown Health implementaron el Sistema de Comando de Incidentes Hospitalarios (Hospital Incident Command System, HICS) de Renown, que es un sistema estandarizado para organizar al personal y los recursos de respuesta y gestionar las operaciones de respuesta durante emergencias y crisis. This precautionary measure was established at Renown as the effects of the novel coronavirus devastated parts of the east coast and other hotspots around the world. While COVID-19 had yet to present itself in Washoe County at this time last year, Renown was prepared and ready for what would come next. “En Renown, nuestros equipos practican la preparación para emergencias los 365 días del año”, afirmó Tony Slonim, MD, DrPH, presidente y director ejecutivo de Renown. “We had been steadfastly watching the impact COVID-19 was having across the world and knew based on our predictive analytics that the virus would impact communities closer to home. Our team took swift action to ensure Renown remained ready and prepared. I am incredibly proud of those who played a role on this emergency and crisis response team for almost a year, for it is their dedication, hard work, and leadership that continues to guide Renown’s ability to provide outstanding care to all in our community through this ongoing pandemic. Sus esfuerzos contribuyen a un estado de Nevada más seguro y saludable para todos nosotros”. “El 2020 fue un año que nadie olvidará. For everyone- and for our healthcare workers at Renown, the year presented countless challenges and opportunities. Those of us who choose healthcare as our life’s work answer a true calling to serve others; this field requires a self-less commitment and a tireless dedication to caring for people when they are at their most vulnerable,” said Renown’s Chief of Staff, Sy Johnson. “Aplaudo a todo el equipo de HICS, así como a todos los médicos, enfermeros y héroes de la atención médica de Renown por su valor, su fuerza y perseverancia a la hora de servir a nuestros pacientes y a la comunidad durante estos momentos sin precedentes”. A continuación, se detallan los aspectos destacados de algunos de los momentos y eventos más notables que se experimentaron bajo la dirección del equipo de Comandos de Incidentes de Renown Health durante el año pasado. Estructura médica desplegable temporal fuera del Departamento de Emergencias del Renown Regional El 12 de marzo de 2020, Renown instaló un centro médico desplegable para que sirviera como centro de evaluación y detección de enfermedades respiratorias para pacientes de la sala de emergencias en el Renown Regional Medical Center. A similar tent was also set up outside the Emergency Room at South Meadows Medical Center. An additional layer of protection, this proactive measure helped to care for people with symptoms of respiratory illness, and to protect patients and staff in the Emergency Department and other areas of the hospital. Las carpas se desarmaron el 20 de enero de 2021 ya que la cantidad de casos de COVID-19 en nuestra comunidad continuó disminuyendo. (See photo here.) Alternate Care Site at Mill Street Parking Structure at Renown Regional As many communities across the nation experienced an increase in COVID-19 cases, including significant surges in hospitalized patients, Renown’s HICS team had the foresight to create an Alternate Care Site (ACS) in the Renown Regional Medical Center Mill Street Parking structure. The ACS served additional hospitalized patients and allowed caregivers to remain on campus and still have access to existing hospital infrastructure such as lab, pharmacy, imaging, food services and other critical services. This solution also supported an efficient level of care escalation and other emergent interventions as needed. Después de solo 10 días de una complicada construcción, que incluyó pisos, infraestructura eléctrica, iluminación, agua, tecnología y paredes divisorias, el ACS estuvo listo el 3 de abril de 2020 con espacio para hasta 1,400 pacientes. El 12 de noviembre de 2020, Renown inauguró el ACS para atender a más pacientes hospitalizados con diagnóstico de COVID-19 que estaban clínicamente estables o en mejoría. Healthcare workers at Renown cared for hundreds of patients in this site. A principios de enero de 2021, los pacientes restantes regresaron a sus hogares. The Site remains in place and will reopen if needed. (Alternate Care Site B-Roll.) “LOVE” se abre paso en Renown El 16 de abril de 2020, durante un momento de oscuridad e incertidumbre, Artown le prestó a Renown la escultura “LOVE”, una estructura de aluminio soldado de una tonelada, diseñada por la artista Laura Kimpton y fabricada por Jeff Schomberg. La obra iluminó la entrada principal del Regional Medical Center en Mill St. La escultura se había inaugurado anteriormente en Burning Man en 2019 El 13 de julio de 2020, gracias al apoyo del expresidente de la junta y defensor de la comunidad Blake Smith y a la Keyser Foundation, “LOVE” sigue resplandeciendo cada noche en el púrpura característico de Renown, con un brillo radiante para el disfrute de los pacientes, empleados, visitantes y transeúntes. Throughout the pandemic, this sculpture has served as a source of inspiration, hope and positivity for our community. (LOVE sign B-Roll.) Evolving in an Ever-Changing World: Long-Term Remote Work for Renown Employees The COVID-19 pandemic pushed healthcare leaders throughout the world to determine how best to provide care in this ever-changing environment. Leaders in Renown’s Human Resources department evaluated the thoughts and opinions of employees working remotely throughout Renown Health. Debido a los comentarios positivos de los empleados, que incluyen menos tiempo de viaje, menos distracciones, un mejor equilibrio entre el trabajo y la vida personal y una huella de carbono reducida, más de 700 empleados de Renown continuarán trabajando de manera remota. Renown ofrece pruebas de COVID internas El 2020 de junio, el equipo del laboratorio de Renown entró en acción para ayudar a satisfacer la creciente demanda de pruebas de COVID-19 de los residentes y negocios del condado de Washoe. Renown invirtió en ampliar la plantilla de personal y la capacidad de hacer pruebas de forma interna, lo que les permitió hacer hisopados y procesar hasta 1,000 pruebas de COVID para pacientes cada día y entregar los resultados en cuestión de horas. El director ejecutivo de Renown, el Dr. Tony Slonim, también colaboró con el grupo especial del alcalde dedicado a la COVID-19, con líderes comunitarios y religiosos locales desde el 2020 de octubre para abordar la equidad en la salud mediante pruebas gratuitas de COVID-19 para las comunidades de color. (Lab B-Roll). Renown administra las vacunas contra la COVID-19 al personal de atención médica y a los adultos mayores locales El 17 de diciembre de 2020, de acuerdo con las pautas de salud nacionales, estatales y del condado, Renown comenzó a vacunar a sus trabajadores de atención médica. Among those receiving the first vaccines were Luis Martinez, a technician on Renown’s Clinical Decision Unit who cared for patients recovering from COVID-19 in the Alternate Care Site field hospital; and many clinical leaders and partners. (Front-Line Staff Vaccination B-Roll.) Después de varias semanas de eventos exitosos de vacunación al paso para empleados y voluntarios, Renown apoyó al Distrito de Salud del Condado de Washoe y al estado en la vacunación del primer grupo de personas mayores de 70 años del condado de Washoe. Hasta la fecha, Renown ha administrado a más de 30,000 personas mayores y héroes de la atención médica las 2 dosis de la vacuna. (Community Vaccination B-Roll.) An Extraordinary Year of Service As our community experiences fewer COVID-19 hospitalizations and the vaccine is available to more individuals, Renown’s steadfast commitment to keeping our community safe remains the same. “We thank the community for standing by us and helping us all emerge as stronger people with hope for the future. We continue to fight the good fight,” said Dr. Slonim. “With COVID now imbedded into our daily lives, it’s remarkable to reflect on the progress we’ve made and the obstacles we’ve overcome. Estaré siempre agradecido por las medidas de precaución, la innovación y los actos de servicio y amor de nuestro dedicado equipo durante los últimos 12 meses. We hope by demonstrating our caring values and exhibiting hope and determination, we are inspiring others.”    About Renown Health Renown Health is the region’s largest, locally owned and governed, not-for-profit integrated healthcare network serving Nevada, Lake Tahoe and northeast California.
