Integris Health (stylized INTEGRIS Health) is an American 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.guidestar.org/organizations/73-1192764/integris-health.aspx )〕 which manages health care facilities in the state of Oklahama.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://integrisok.com/about-integris-health )〕 Through affiliates, Integris Health Inc. operates 16 hospitals and has health providers in 49 Oklahoma towns and cities. The Integris facilities are hospitals, rehabilitation centers, physician clinics, mental health facilities, independent living centers, and home health agencies, located throughout Oklahoma. == History == Integris Health was created in 1983 in order to serve as the parent corporation for, and to provide management and administrative support to, Integris Baptist Medical Center Inc.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.linkedin.com/company/integris-health )〕 However, the network of hospitals that now comprises Integris Health was born out of a series of Oklahoma healthcare providers merging over the span of three years from 1992-1995, with additional hospitals brought onboard later. Integris's roots can be traced back to 1910 when a six bedroom home in Enid, OK was transformed into Bass Baptist Health Center, a hospital that would eventually fall under the Integris name.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.healthgrades.com/hospital-directory/oklahoma-ok/about-HGSTE6990596370016 )〕 Nine years later, Baptist Regional Health Center opened to serve the needs of lead and zinc miners. Modern day Integris began in 1946 when Dr. Andrew Potter and Dr. T. B. Lackey, both of the Baptist General Convention of Oklahoma, first proposed opening a Baptist hospital in Oklahoma City. On the Easter Sunday of 1959 this proposition came to fruition when Baptist Memorial Hospital opened its 200 bed facility in Oklahoma City. Sometimes called the "Hospital on the hill," Baptist Memorial Hospital sat atop an elevated area of land with little around it. Later, in 1965, South Community Hospital opened after hosting a fund drive to raise the money necessary to build. In 1972 Baptist Memorial Hospital was renamed Baptist Medical Center. Six years later, in 1978, ownership of Baptist Medical Center was transferred from the Baptist General Convention of Oklahoma to the Oklahoma Healthcare Corporation. Then, in 1992, South Community Hospital changed its name to Southwest Medical Center. Two years later the first of several mergers occurred, with Oklahoma Healthcare Corporation joining with Baptist Healthcare of Oklahoma to form Oklahoma Health System. The next year, in 1995, Southwest Medical Center merged with Oklahoma Health Systems and the new organization was renamed Integris Health. Over the next few years Integris grew to encompass several regional hospitals. In 2001 Integris built their first hospital under the new name, adding Canadian Valley Hospital in Yukon, OK.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.healthgrades.com/hospital-directory/oklahoma-ok/about-HGSTACF4D7DC370211 )〕 In 2009 Integris created a partnership with ProCure Proton Therapy Center to create the Integris Cancer Institute of Oklahoma, a facility that is one of only 14 in the county to offer proton therapy.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.proton-therapy.org/map.htm )〕 In 2011, Integris Health Edmond was opened〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.modernhealthcare.com/article/20111024/MAGAZINE/310249909 )〕 and in 2013 Integris became the majority owner of Lakeside Women’s Hospital, greatly increasing their women's services. Later in 2013, Integris became a preferred clinical affiliate of Access Medical Centers, offering patients an urgent care alternative to the emergency room.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.accessmedicalcenters.com/urgent-care_news/press-releases/ )〕 In 2014 Integris launched an online video platform, integrishealth.tv, to provide a place for patients and family members to learn about their services and educate the community about health issues.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.news9.com/Global/category.asp?C=116601&autoStart=true&topVideoCatNo=default&clipId=4889555&flvUri=&partnerclipid= )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Integris Health」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
