YRMC’s James Family Heart Center Team Performs Rare Heart Procedure
by Community Outreach and Philanthropy, (928) 771-5686
|
The James Family Heart Center at Yavapai Regional Medical Center (YRMC) has reached another milestone. The Heart Center recently performed its first transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR)—an emerging and highly complex procedure.
“Very few heart centers in Arizona, the region or even nationwide have the advanced technology, medical expertise or state-of-the-art facilities necessary to perform TMVR,” said Soundos K. Moualla, MD, FACC, FSCAI, Interventional Cardiologist and Director, YRMC’s Structural Heart Program. “We are fortunate that YRMC’s Heart Center has all three components and we were prepared to offer this procedure to our patients.”
The TMVR was performed in YRMC’s Hybrid Operating Room, recognized as among the best in the nation. The following Heart Center experts – along with staff from the Cardiac Catheterization Lab and Cardiovascular Surgery – collaborated before, during and after the procedure:
- Soundos K. Moualla, MD, FACC, FSCAI
- Jose E. Torres, MD, FACS
- George Gellert, MD
- Saina Attaran, MD, MRCS, FRCS
- Daniel Beck, MD
- Gwen Rhodes, RN

A Big Win for a Small Non-Profit
In just two years, a small educational organization is making big waves in the community.
|
Prescott, AZ – G.E.M. Environmental (GEM), a 501 (c) nonprofit, has been awarded a grant by the Environmental and Sustainability fund, a component of the Arizona Community Foundation.
“In the short time that we’ve launched the Field Experience Program, we’ve already received tremendous support by the community,” Eric M. Welsh, GEM’s Executive Director said. “The grant from the Arizona Community Foundation will give us additional resources to offer hands-on science education for underserved college students in Yavapai County. The program will continue to expand its engaging activities, including field trips where students apply their knowledge, broaden perspectives on conservation, and gain insight into managing public lands.”
G.E.M. Environmental was founded in 2017 and offers STEM scholarships to undergraduate and graduate students, paid internships, community volunteer days, educational programs, regular blog series, and more. They have a partnership with Yavapai College and Drake Cement Mine, among other institutions in Arizona and New Mexico. GEM has successfully raised over $5K in conjunction with Arizona Gives Day, won an Arizona Gives Day incentive prize for the most dollars raised within 24 hours for a micro non-profit, and raised over $2K for Giving Tuesday to support the Field Experience Program.

E-Verify - It's Required for
All
AZ Employers
I'm a legal geek. In my spare time, I look through employment laws and search government websites. I recently found a link on the Arizona Attorney General's website to a database of Arizona employers that are enrolled in E-Verify. Arizona employers with one or more employees are required to use E-Verify, a web-based service, within three days of hiring someone to verify their employment eligibility.
Out of curiosity, I submitted names of local employers whose trucks or advertisements I've seen recently. Surprisingly, several businesses did not show up as being enrolled in E-Verify. They could have enrolled under a corporate name that's different than the advertised name, so this wasn't a validated study by any means, but it concerned me that so many names were not showing up.
The Legal Arizona Workers Act prohibits businesses from knowingly or intentionally hiring an alien who does not have the legal authorization to work in the U.S., and the same law requires employers to use E-Verify for all new employees. Businesses that violate the law by employing someone who isn't authorized to work can lose their business licenses; however, if they show that E-Verify gave a green light on the individual, it's presumed that the employer didn't knowingly employ someone who lacked the legal right to work. So, using E-Verify can also keep you out of trouble.
If you're not enrolled in E-Verify, do it today and start using it for new hires going forward (you're prohibited from using it retroactively for current employees). Go to
