Congratulations to Mrs. Lori Berry’s fourth grade class at Zane Trace Elementary School, who came away the winner with their submission, Chester:
· preCise;
· sHorter hospital stay;
· easy rEcovery;
· lesS pain;
· fasTer;
· fEwer infections;
· less scaRring.
For winning, the class received a special recognition certificate as well as a MAX Robot, an interactive robot with customizable learning programs.
“After a classroom discussion about what the da Vinci Xi robot is capable of, we started brainstorming ways to incorporate all of that data into a proper name for the robot,” Mrs. Berry explained. “This was a great opportunity to explore something new and incorporate our anecdote lesson. We look forward to putting the MAX Robot together and creating a fun way to learn out of that.”
Since Adena’s Robotic Surgery Program began in October 2012 with a single da Vinci Si, it has transformed from an upstart to becoming nationally recognized as an “Epicenter of Excellence,” only one of five hospitals to receive this distinction in Ohio.
