Jamestown, ND (KCSi-T.V. News Jul 8, 2013) — Jamestown Regional Medical Center (JRMC) has partnered with Sanford Health to provide patients with an integrated state-of-the-art electronic health record (EHR). The agreement provides JRMC with access to the industry’s most advanced electronic health records system, Epic. It also triggers a formal action plan associated with pursuing the potential for jointly offering expanded services to the Jamestown region, most notably, cancer care.

Epic will allow providers, nurses and other medical professionals a seamless means of collecting, storing and accessing a patient’s medical information. This is a tremendous win in the community for exchanging information in the safest, most efficient way possible.

JRMC Operating Borad, Chairman, Connie Krapp says, “A collaboration with Sanford allows us to take advantage of federal incentives to implement electronic health records, The best software for this is Epic, which is not available to health facilities the size of JRMC. Partnering with Sanford allows us to implement the best technology in the industry.”

Sanford Health Network, President, Rick Geisel says, “A closer affiliation between JRMC and Sanford seeks to address the changing health care environment so that we can continue to offer the best patient care possible.”

JRMC will continue to operate as an independent, community-owned hospital and is enthusiastic about the positive opportunities to respond to the needs of the community this collaboration will bring.

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Authorities say O.J. Simpson’s former girlfriend has turned herself in after initially failing to report for a 34-day jail sentence on charges of felony burglary and drug possession in a Minnesota case.
 
38-year-old Christie Prody reported on Saturday, eight days after she was ordered.
 
     Prody had pleaded guilty in May to stealing painkillers from an elderly couple in Moorhead, Minn., while working as an in-home care assistant.
 
     On July 1, Clay County Judge Steven Cahill denied her request to wait until after the weekend to begin serving because her mother had to work and Prody had no one to care for her 2-year-old daughter.
 
     Prody and Simpson began dating in 1996 after he was acquitted of killing his ex-wife and her friend in Los Angeles.
  

 BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The U.S. Department of Agriculture says temperatures that were 2 to 8 degrees warmer across most of the state this past week are continuing to advance the state’s crop development.
 
     The Agricultural Statistics Service’s North Dakota field office says in its weekly crop report that farmers and ranchers had on average 6 days suitable for fieldwork.
 
     Spring wheat is 95 percent emerged and 67 percent jointed. The Durum wheat crop is 96 emerged, which is average, and 61 percent jointed, which is slightly behind the average.
 
     Pasture and range conditions are rated 1 percent poor, 9 percent fair, 53 percent good and 37 percent excellent.
 
     Sugarbeet condition is rated 6 percent very poor, 6 percent poor, 38 percent fair, 45 percent good and 5 percent excellent.

 BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s Game and Fish Department has worked with Burleigh County to complete major gravel road repairs on the Oahe (oh-AW’-hee) Wildlife Management Area south of Bismarck.
 
     The project included reshaping and graveling nearly 8 miles of access roads at the popular MacLean Bottoms and Apple Creek recreation areas. The roads were severely damaged by Missouri River flooding in 2011.
 
     Game and Fish Wildlife Resource Management Supervisor Bill Haase says the project cost half a million dollars.

 DEVILS LAKE, N.D. (AP) – The new student member of North Dakota’s Board of Higher Education says the state university system needs to regain the public’s trust before it can move past recent controversies.
 
     Gov. Jack Dalrymple appointed 19-year-old Devin Hoffarth to the board last week. The Lake Region State graduate and current Mayville State student will serve through June 2014.
 
     The state university system has gone through months of turmoil that included the buyout of embattled chancellor Hamid Shirvani and findings by Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem (STEHN’-juhm) that the higher ed board violated open meeting laws.
 
     Hoffarth says the board needs to “make peace” over the next year, and show the public that the board is capable of overseeing the 11 public colleges and universities in the system.
 

In  world and national news…

SAN ANTONIO (AP) – Rick Perry, the longest-serving governor in Texas history, says he won’t seek re-election in 2014. Perry said Monday he plans to retire. That sets up an opening for fellow Republican and longtime Texas Attorney General Gregg Abbott in next year’s GOP primary. Perry ran for president in 2011. He’s best known in that campaign for uttering “Oops” during a debate after forgetting the third of three federal agencies he wanted to eliminate if elected. Before that, Perry stirred controversy by suggesting Texas could secede from the U.S. and for shooting a coyote with a concealed handgun while jogging.

LAC-MEGANTIC, Quebec (AP) – Officials in Canada say the death toll in the devastating oil train derailment has reached 13.
 
     Eight more bodies have been found in the wreckage now that investigators have better access to the zone closest to the blast, officials said Monday. About 40 people are still missing.

Crews are still trying to stabilize a dangerous situation in the Quebec town.

A train carrying 73 tank cars of North Dakota crude rolled driverless down a hill into the heart of Lac-Megantic, Quebec, Saturday,  where it derailed and exploded, leveling the town center.

A manager at a bar that was leveled in the explosion says she believes there were about three workers there when the explosion took place and about 50 customers. Because of the danger of additional fires and explosions, crews haven’t been able to search for dozens of people still missing.

The train was one of around 10 such shipments a month now crossing Maine, a route that allows oil producers in North Dakota to get cheaper domestic crude to coastal refiners. Across North America, oil by rail traffic has more than doubled since 2011; in Maine, such shipments were unheard of two years ago.

 
     SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – San Francisco fire officials say there is a possibility that one of the two teenage girls killed in a plane crash at San Francisco International Airport on Saturday was struck by an emergency vehicle. They raised the possibility today at a news conference with first responders. Both of the girls who were killed were visiting from China. More than 180 people were sent to hospitals following the crash.
 
     SANFORD, Fla. (AP) – The lead detective in George Zimmerman’s second-degree murder case says Trayvon Martin’s father told him that screams for help on a 911 call weren’t his son’s. Officer Chris Serino was called by the defense Monday to testify about a meeting with Martin’s father in the days after the Miami teen was fatally shot by Zimmerman. Convincing the jurors whose voice is on the tapes is important because it would help them decide who was the aggressor in the confrontation. Relatives of Martin’s and Zimmerman’s have offered conflicting opinions about who is heard screaming.
 
     MIAMI (AP) – A tropical storm warning is in effect for Puerto Rico and some other islands, as Tropical Storm Chantal (shahn-TAHL’) heads in their direction. The storm’s top winds are near 45 miles an hour, but they’re supposed to get stronger over the next couple of days. (a0842)
