A MESSAGE FROM

STAFFORD SWEARINGEN

Foundation Board President

THANKS FOR JOINING US!

Wow, what a difference two years makes! Welcome to the Bothwell
Foundation’s 7th biennial Virtual Benefit. We are disappointed that we
won’t see you in person tonight, but we are so excited that you have
chosen to join us virtually for what promises to be a fun and informative
night for the benefit of health care in Pettis and Benton counties.

For over 15 years, the Bothwell Foundation has been instrumental
in helping the hospital provide expert, local health care to our residents.
It is no secret that we are currently sailing in some uncharted waters;
however, the health care providers, the administrators, and all of
the hospital support staff have been working tirelessly to ensure that
Bothwell still delivers that exceptional care that we have all come to love.

Tonight we are raising money for an Endobronchial Ultrasound
(EBUS) bronchoscopy system for the hospital. In layman’s terms, this
system will allow doctors to more safely biopsy suspicious cells in the
lungs instead of sending a patient to another hospital for care. I think
we can all agree that keeping as much health care local as possible
helps decrease stress and anxiety.

We are grateful to you and our generous sponsors who helped us
reimagine how we could celebrate our Benefit tonight, while at home.
Thank you for joining us, and please consider giving generously to
help us help Bothwell continue to improve the quality of health care it
provides in our community. Needless to say, we hope you all thoroughly
enjoy our first, and hopefully only, Foundation Virtual Benefit.

WHY WE ARE HERE

PROCEEDS FROM THE 2020 BOTHWELL FOUNDATION
BENEFIT WILL GO TOWARD THE PURCHASE OF AN EBUS,
WHICH IS AN ENDOBRONCHIAL ULTRASOUND SYSTEM.
THE SYSTEM WILL HELP WITH DIAGNOSING LUNG CANCER

AND OTHER LUNG DISORDERS WITH A MINIMALLY
INVASIVE BUT HIGHLY EFFECTIVE PROCEDURE.

The cost of the equipment is about $160,000 and the request
for the foundation’s support to purchase it came Dr. Dan
Woolery, a pulmonologist with Bothwell Pulmonary Specialists
and Bothwell’s Perioperative Services department.

“Currently, our patients have to travel to other facilities outside
our community for diagnosis and treatment of their illnesses,”
said Kathy Johnson, Perioperative Services director. “The
acquisition of this equipment would be very exciting because
it will provide a new, much needed service to people in our
community and in the surrounding areas.”

Woolery said that the accuracy and speed of the EBUS
procedure lends itself to rapid on-site evaluation so that
pathologists can process and examine biopsy samples and
diagnose them quickly.

“The system also allows us to easily view difficult to reach areas
and access more areas for biopsy than through conventional
procedures requiring incisions,” he said. “The procedure can
be performed under moderate or general anesthesia in the
operating room, and patients recover quickly and usually go
home the same day.”

HOW TO

DONATE

During the live stream event, you will have an opportunity
to support funding the Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS)
bronchoscopy system. During the Fund-A-Need auction, you
can make a donation by:

1. Calling or texting the event support line at 503.967.7489
between 6 – 8 pm on Nov. 7, 2020.

2. Making a donation online at https://benefit2020.ggo.bid
3. Completing a donor card and submitting it to your house party

host (only available if you are attending a house party that was
registered with the event).
Every amount makes a difference. Thank you for your
support of this project and the Bothwell Foundation.
