“Our market is large and diverse, but I would say that a common concern across our market is the use of tobacco and childhood obesity.
Mercy recently launched Tobacco Free Mercy at our Oklahoma City hospital and at more than 65 Mercy Clinics statewide. So far, the program has led to more than 1,000 Mercy patients to contact the Oklahoma Tobacco Helpline. We plan to expand the campaign at other Mercy hospitals in the spring. Mercy also helps promote healthier choices in school lunchrooms across southern Oklahoma by offering cafeteria staff members food handling training and nutrition education. Mercy also provides a registered dietician at those Southern Oklahoma schools to help students who aren’t aware of their healthy options.”
