About Coping With Ghosting:

Coping With Ghosting provides hope, healing, and understanding for anyone who has been ghosted. What is ghosting? Imagine sharing a connection with someone: a dating match, significant other, friend, family member, or even a business partner – but one day – they disappear out of thin air. Texts, calls, and emails go unanswered. You know this person is still alive, yet they have vanished from your life; they have “ghosted” you. Each episode is dedicated to helping people who have been affected by somebody’s disappearing act. It explores ghosting, relationships, abandonment, grief, self-care, closure, and more.

Memorial Healthcare System Facilities Earn Teaching Hospital Designation from Florida Agency


“We were able to secure these designations after only five years as a graduate medical education (GME) program, solidifying our standing as a major academic medical center,” said Dr. Saima Chaudhry, Memorial Healthcare System‘s chief academic officer. “It also makes our program more attractive to residents, fellows, and teaching faculty as we maintain our commitment to train South Florida’s next generation of physicians and specialists.”

Memorial’s GME program, which uses its hospitals for on-the-job, physician training that supplements classroom instruction, includes 15 accredited programs (11 residencies and four fellowships). Many of these areas of study are ones the State of Florida has determined will likely have a shortage of specialists in the years to come.

Statutory teaching hospital designation also potentially qualifies academic centers for additional state funding for programs.

South Florida-based Memorial Healthcare System (http://www.mhs.net) is a national leader in quality care and patient, physician, and employee satisfaction. Its commitment to deeper caring and smarter health prioritizes a person-centered approach that has delivered safe, positive outcomes for 70 years.

Featuring multi-disciplinary collaboration, research, innovation, and transparency within its many facilities, Memorial is focused on removing barriers, increasing access, and providing equitable care throughout the region. It employs a staff of more than 16,000 and operates six hospitals, numerous primary, urgent, and 24/7 care facilities, medical office buildings, a health specialty center, and nursing home.

Steel Sports Foundation Announces Donation in Partnership with Dunmore to Support Local New Jersey Youth Football Association


Bryan Wilson, a former linebacker with the NFL’s Washington Commanders and a current Dunmore employee, identified this significant opportunity to provide essential support to the Burlington City community. Wilson, who also played football at Morgan State University where he held the NCAA record for forced fumbles in a season, knows the impact sports and coaching had on his life.

“I owe much of my NFL journey to the coaches who instilled the values of Teamwork, Respect, Integrity, and Commitment in me,” Wilson said. “These same values have been instrumental in my ascent to a leadership role at Dunmore.”

In addition to the $25,000 donation, all Burlington City Youth Football Association coaches will receive access to the Steel Sports Coaching System’s Foundations of Positive Coaching 1 online course that provides support for children during their crucial developmental stages. The Steel Sports Coaching System is a unique platform that guides how to coach for maximum impact on and off the field through building character and leadership skills along with teaching life lessons. Since its development, the Coaching System has impacted nearly 20,000 athletes annually with over 1 million hours of on-field coaching.

Sports and dedicated coaching are pivotal in nurturing the positive growth and development of young student-athletes. Introducing Steel Sports’ invaluable Coaching System at this critical juncture in these kids’ lives will contribute to shaping the future’s outstanding leaders.

“Through our shared Kids First philosophy at Dunmore and Steel Partners, we are proud to support the Steel Sports Foundation in its mission to provide opportunities for young athletes to develop their skills and build character through sports,” Dunmore president Ronn Cort said. “When Bryan presented this opportunity, we knew it was the right thing to do. We are excited to work with the Burlington City Athletic Association to help make a difference for the kids and coaches in their football league. We want to help keep the young players as safe as possible out on the field, and we want them to have a positive and fun experience so they continue to play and gain the life lessons that will make them successful in life.”

The Steel Sports Foundation is committed to helping young people reach their potential through sports. The Foundation provides scholarships for athletes to attend camps, clinics, and other events, as well as supports youth sports programs across the country.

“Player safety is paramount in all levels of football, but the equipment costs can add up quickly and become a burden for many,” Steel Sports Foundation board president Mario Marcon said. “We are thrilled to be working with Dunmore to impact their local Burlington City Youth Football Association families and help provide the proper equipment they need for their kids to play the game they love.”

The Steel Sports Foundation’s board, which consists of Marcon, former Major League Baseball player and manager Bobby Valentine and Basketball Hall of Famer Ann Meyers Drysdale, is grateful for Dunmore’s commitment to help their local community and impact players, families and coaches.

$9M Investment in Blockchain-backed Healthcare Data Company, Rymedi


Rymedi, a blockchain-backed healthcare data transfer and workflow automation platform that is announcing they’ve secured an investment of $9M with Whitestar Capital, RW3 Ventures, and other angel investors. I thought you might be interested to know more about this. With patent-pending blockchain technology, Rymedi is quickly expanding to help shape the future of healthcare data infrastructures for better patient care on a global scale. The platform meets healthcare compliance standards worldwide, and its level of interoperability and ability to securely are unmatched. They are already serving over 1 million patients in over 1,200 locations across the US, Africa, and Australia and are rapidly increasing their reach with this investment.

GREENVILLE, S.C. , Oct. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Rymedi, a healthcare data exchange platform with advanced blockchain security, has announced a Series A totaling $9 million with plans to expand the reach of their platform.

The round was co-led by RW3 Ventures and White Star Capital with participation from Blockchange Ventures, Avalanche’s Blizzard Fund, and strategic angel investors from the healthcare industry. Rymedi, which serves over 1 million patients in over 1,200 locations across the US, Africa, and Australia, will use the financing to increase data security and healthcare record accessibility for patients while reducing data entry errors and costs for healthcare data infrastructures on a global scale.

“We are always searching for great teams that are using blockchain technology to solve real-world problems with the potential to address global markets,” said Pete Najarian, Managing Partner of RW3 Ventures. “The Rymedi team and product suite fit that thesis perfectly, and we are delighted to be on this journey with them. While healthcare data management has remained inefficient and expensive, we believe Rymedi’s blockchain-based solution is having a meaningful impact on cost, connectivity, security, and user experience.”

The Rymedi platform, which currently supports Clemson University and many other large organizations throughout the world, removes the friction of a manual, paper filled operation to quickly connect with customers and patients and scale lab processes with higher testing throughput and lower total cost of ownership.

“Our decentralized data platform is diminishing roadblocks that healthcare systems have faced for far too long,” said David Stefanich, CEO and Founder of Rymedi. “Data entry errors and healthcare compliance issues slow the development of life-saving research, patient care, and occupational health processes. We are improving the overall healthcare experience with this technology and are proud to make a larger global impact as we scale our services with this round of funding.”

In the areas of occupational health, clinical trials, and laboratory information management systems, it automates data transfer with flexible interoperability, streamlines data entry with real-time results, and meets global regulatory compliance standards with unrivaled security. This is all made possible by Rymedi’s innovative blockchain-based backend, which is uniquely suited to facilitate data access across multiple parties and platforms.

“The current infrastructure for healthcare data exists across multiple disparate systems like EHRs and LIMs and has resulted in massive and inefficient data silos. For healthcare companies, this portends both higher costs and lost revenue, and for consumers, a suboptimal care experience,” said Sep Alavi, General Partner of White Star Capital. “Couple this with increasing demands from consumers for value-based care, and you can start to visualize the scale of the opportunity for disruption. Rymedi’s innovative solution serves as the connectivity layer between all of these silos and is consistent with our thesis that the design space for programmable & decentralized blockchain backends is massive.”

ABOUT RYMEDI

Founded in 2018, Rymedi is revolutionizing data transfer and security on a global scale. The Rymedi blockchain platform meets multijurisdictional compliance so that data is securely transferred while meeting healthcare compliance standards worldwide. With over 1 million lives on the platform in over 1,200 locations in the US, Africa, and Australia, it is utilized for occupational health, laboratories, diagnostic devices, and clinical trials. The ease and efficiency of this robust platform increases revenue and efficiency and reduces cost for various healthcare infrastructures while protecting vital healthcare information with unmatched security.
