“In our community, we have
a school-based health center program that is operated by a
not-for-profit 501(c)(3) corporation called the Wayne Initiative for
School Health (WISH). The students who attend the six WISH schools are
nearly all patients in our practice. We have incorporated our electronic
health record into the centers so that care for this very at-risk
population is as seamless as possible. Our practice is available to
students enrolled in WISH whenever the schools are closed, or whenever
the WISH staff need our assistance. Staff of the WISH Centers attend the
Category I Continuing Medical Education programs of the practice every
Tuesday at 7 am in the hospital private dining area. The Director of our
local health department is on the Board for the WISH Program, and the
health department provides health education and nutrition services for
the WISH Program. In our practice, we refer patients who need
nutritional consultations to the Registered Dietitian at the health
department.” David Tayloe,Jr., MD, FAAP, Goldsboro Pediatrics
