The board of directors for Ranken Jordan Pediatric Bridge Hospital elected two new members-at-large to its board: Teri Murray, PhD, and Roma Bordewick. The 30-member board of directors governs the mission and direction of Ranken Jordan and ensures their commitment to considering children first.
Ranken Jordan recently hosted a Volunteer Appreciation Dinner to recognize and appreciate the more than 300 Partners in Care who dedicated their time and talents to the hospital in 2016.
In October of 2016 Ranken Jordan broke ground on a 78,000 square-foot expansion, which will allow us to more than double in size, expanding from a 34-bed facility to a 60-bed inpatient facility.
In March of this year, 19-year-old Tommy was visiting his brother in California when he sustained multiple injuries, including a traumatic brain injury, in a serious car accident. After a month in the Intensive Care Unit, still unable to speak, eat or sit upright, Tommy was deemed ineligible for rehabilitation and was transferred to a nursing home.
At Ranken Jordan we’re surrounded by heroes just like CC. From the tiniest babies who learn how to eat and breathe on their own, to the toddlers who are learning what life is like outside of the hospital room. And teenagers like CC, whose lives have been changed by illness or accidents, are determined to get better, faster and stronger every day.
