Outreach

We treat our community like family

Our definition of care extends beyond the medical treatment we provide to foster a sense of unity and inclusion in the communities we serve. MedWise^® Urgent Care outreach initiatives enable staff to engage with people outside of the clinic, creating a place at which everyone feels welcome.

MedWise runs Ironman Run Aid Station #5

MedWise provided helpful assistance at Tulsa’s second hosting of Ironman. This triathlon had 800 athletes that competed in a series of long distance races that included a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike ride, and concluded with a 26 mile run in the city of Tulsa.

MedWise managed Run Aid Station #5 at 35^th & Riverside as triathletes came through for water, snacks, Gatorade, and optimistic encouragement through the last leg of the race. While managing the race the team, along with several other volunteers, decorated the run course with words of inspiration and pictures along with signs of encouragement. The day after the race, the Run Aid Station was voted, by the athletes and the Ironman team, 2^nd place as the Best Run Aid Station out of 7 after providing authentic appreciation to its athletes and Ironman.

MedWise inspires youth through Junior Achievement Inspire (JA Inspire)

MedWise was pleased to get out and engage with students to tell the story of what made our healthcare professionals fall in love with Healthcare and MedWise. Ja Inspire is a place where it brings not only local schools together but also the businesses in the community as a whole. The students that participated in the event have the opportunity to get more information about careers that may interest them enough to start their education route towards their career choice.

The event also allows the students to ask questions, make connections, and collect information about a career with MedWise while also learning about other career opportunities in the same room.
MedWise had a booth where we had Fairdy Lara ( Medical Assistant) and Jessica Stadler ( APRN, FNP-C, ENP-C, CNP) provide a deeper insight of what it is like to work at MedWise and what a career in Healthcare looks like as far as education and day to day life. MedWise chose to educate the students on how to read an x-ray by going through the ABC’s of X-Rays. Through the presentation, they were able to review Adequacy & Alignment, Bones, Cartilage, and Soft tissue.
“ Being able to represent MedWise by sharing my passion for healthcare was a privilege.” Says Fairdy Lara. “To be the first insight of healthcare to many of them and seeing their face light up with excitement while teaching them how to read an x-ray was very rewarding.”

Here is a small recap of #’s we helped inspire:

•             3,511 8th grade students came to JA Inspire
•             16 school districts were on-site
•             25 schools were represented
•             72 buses carrying students

One 8^th grade attendee said, “I liked being able to have genuine conversations with people about real careers and the requirements for their fields.”
