Palmetto Health was created in February 1998 when Baptist Healthcare System and Richland Memorial Hospital in Columbia merged to create South Carolina's most comprehensive integrated health care delivery system. At the time of the merger, Palmetto Health pledged 10 percent of its annual bottom line for 35 years to fund healthcare initiatives targeted to help the indigent, uninsured and medically underserved population. Palmetto Health has guaranteed that a minimum of $17 million will be spent within the first seven years. With input from members of the community and collaboration with a wide variety of agencies and community service organizations, additional healthcare needs have been identified. Led by Vince Ford, senior vice president, the office of Community Services has developed a series of healthcare initiatives to address community healthcare needs in Richland, Lexington, Fairfield and Pickens counties. Community Health Initiatives include: Cancer Education and Prevention Diabetes Initiative (Promotes Prostate Cancer Awareness) Palmetto Healthy Start (For new parents and expecting moms and dads) Free Yourself From Smoking Midlands Youth Directory Additional Community Service Programs: Select a program in the menu below.

47. Childhaven Was Established In 1909 By The Reverend Mark Matthews childhaven now operates Therapeutic child care programs throughout King County through incommunities throughout Washington State in south carolina, and Calgary http://www.childhaven.org/content_about.htm

Childhaven was established in 1909 by the Reverend Mark Matthews as the Seattle Day Nursery, one of the first 50 child care centers in the country. The original nursery building, built in 1921 in the Central District, today houses Childhaven's Broadway Branch. In 1959, a board of trustees was formed and the first staff hired, ending 50 years of management by a volunteer board. Over subsequent years, the agency solidified its position as a leader in the community, involved in such significant activities as the development phases of both Head Start and the Model Cities Child Care Programs. In 1973, Patrick Gogerty joined the organization as executive director. Under his leadership, Seattle Day Nursery made the transition not only in name - becoming Childhaven in 1985 - but also in its establishment as one of the leading and most forward-thinking child care programs in the country. Recognizing the critical need for services for our community's most vulnerable citizens, Childhaven's Therapeutic Child Care Program began at the Broadway Branch with 10 children in 1977, two years before the Washington State legislature mandated the reporting of child abuse. Childhaven's mission now focuses on serving children ages one month to five years who have suffered abuse and neglect. Childhaven now operates Therapeutic Child Care programs throughout King County through the Broadway Branch, the John Wilson Memorial Branch in Seattle's Eastlake area (established in 1961), the Eli Creekmore Memorial Branch in Burien (1987), and the Patrick L. Gogerty Branch in Auburn (1992). There is capacity for treating 268 children each day. Childhaven's model program has been replicated in communities throughout Washington State in South Carolina, and Calgary, Canada.

New Investments in Child Care Needed States cannot keep up with the need for child care assistance, even with TANF funds. Most eligible children are denied assistance. Nationally, only 12 percent of children eligible for child care assistance under federal law receive any help. No state is currently serving all eligible families. States are severely limiting access to assistance. Only four states set their income eligibility guidelines at the maximum level allowable under federal law-85 percent of their state median income. In two out of five states, a family of three earning $25,000 a year does not qualify for help. In three states (Alabama, Missouri, and South Carolina), a family of three earning $18,400 a year (130 percent of poverty) cannot qualify for help. Even with low eligibility cutoffs, states have long waiting lists. For example, there are 14,500 children on the waiting list for child care assistance in North Carolina, over 41,000 children on the waiting list in Texas, and 44,000 children on the waiting list in Florida. State tax credit policies ignore low-income families. Only ten states have a child care tax credit that is refundable and accessible to low-income families.

Mission The Southeastern Center seeks: To generate and diffuse knowledge necessary for culturally competent family support and parent leadership programs (especially those focusing on infancy and early childhood) in the region. To provide high-quality continuing education, technical assistance, and network development for family support providers, policy makers, and advocates in the region. To serve as a focal point for studies and discussions that may improve the demonstrable efficacy, efficiency, and conceptual clarity of family support and parent leadership programs. About the Center Recognizing the special significance of support for families of young children in promoting their healthy development, many national and state organizations have recently launched major initiatives with such a purpose. Perhaps one of the most ambitious of these is Healthy Families America, the initiative of Prevent Child Abuse America (formerly the National Committee to Prevent Child Abuse) to support home visitation for families of infants and toddlers.

About the College How to Become a Patient Patient Care Programs Dental Faculty Practice Sequence of Treatment Emergency Care Treatment Policy The College of Dental Medicine offers a wide range of patient care programs and clinical services ranging from simple cleanings to the most complex of care involving surgery, crowns or implants. Since treatment is provided by primarily by students who are carefully supervised by faculty, care progresses more slowly than in a private dental office. Dental residents and full-time College faculty offer treatment for those cases too complex for our student dentists. Description of Providers Student dentists are carefully supervised by the faculty of the College. Since our students are learning, care takes considerably longer as the faculty monitors the progress of each procedure and patient. To compensate our patients for this additional time, there is a considerable reduction in treatment fees. Residents have graduated from dental school and are acquiring advanced training in general dentistry or a dental specialty. Treatment fees are higher than those of student dentists but lower than our faculty care area.

The new Child Development and Research Center under construction at the University of South Carolina marks a significant step for early childhood development, officials say. "This is a unique and really significant private-public partnership that will make a center of excellence sustainable," said Susie VanHuss of the University of South Carolina Development Foundation. There have been gaps in public and private day care in South Carolina. Private centers might offer care but not enough focus on learning. Two prominent public centers in Columbia, meanwhile, offered developmental learning but also ran up deficits and required subsidies to stay open. When it appeared imminent last year that the state's two accredited, state-run programs - ETV Children's Place and USC's Children's Center - would close, the idea of collaborating on a new center arose.

A comprehensive plan is needed to improve child care in the South, where services vary widely from state to state and programs face unique obstacles, a new study says. The Southern Regional Task Force on Child Care has developed a plan aimed at bringing child care services in 16 Southern states on par with national standards. But, as many states face budget shortfalls, implementing new programs may not be a priority, child care administrators say. "The real kicker is the budget," said Kim Townley, executive director of the Office of Early Childhood Development in Kentucky, whose program has not been cut. "It costs money to implement quality programs." The task force plan calls for stricter licensing requirements for facilities and stricter hiring standards for workers, including background checks on potential employees.

60. Rationale For Credentialing The Center for child care career Development has of early care and education professionalsin south carolina. development system for early care and education http://www.scteched.tec.sc.us/ccccd/credentialing.htm

CENTER FOR CHILD CARE CAREER DEVELOPMENT -Credentialing- Rationale for Credentialing The Center for Child Care Career Development has succeeded in establishing a common core of content and formed a vision for the professional development of early care and education professionals in South Carolina. The established credentials create a career development system for early care and education professionals that standardizes professional requirements and training across non-credit continuing education into higher education credit programs. It is essential to South Carolina's career development system that all persons working with young children have the same basic core knowledge and competencies. The credentialing system in South Carolina is a way of improving children's learning by promoting career development among those who educate and care for them. Credentialing is a way to increase caregivers' skills and ensure that everyone working with young children has the same basic knowledge and competencies. Recent research on brain development indicates that the early years (birth-3) of a child's life are critical. It is a period of life when development is very rapid. Children develop a sense of trust, a sense of who they are, and what they can contribute to the world. It is also a time they internalize a set of social and moral values that will guide their behavior into adulthood.
