The Community Memorial Foundation has always supported the Bridge Model and continues to be a valuable partner in its development. We were pleased to see the success of Bridge highlighted in the Feb. 16th Grantmakers for Health Bulletin article on the evolution of the Aging Well Neighborhood at Adventist LaGrange Memorial Hospital, entitled, “The Health Care Neighborhood: Philanthropy’s Role in Aging Well.”

“The Bridge intervention at the Medical Center has significantly reduced all-cause readmissions. In 4th quarter 2015, the Bridge readmission rate was 5.67 percent, outperforming the national average by nearly two-thirds (USDHHS, 2014).”

Thank you Community Memorial Foundation!
