CGMH Institute

About CGMH Institute

Christian Global Medical Healthcare Incorporated Institute exists to respond to the acute shortest of healthcare professionals in the USA and around the world. The institute is doing by providing hands on training of future health professionals and leaders on its premises. The number two vision for Christian Global Medical Healthcare Incorporated is the formation of partnerships and affiliations with formal educational institutions to participate in the training of their diverse professionals through is institute headed by a seasoned academic and professional Rev. Dr. Manjerngie Cecelia Ndebe. The following is Christian Global Medical Healthcare Incorporated’s second vision within its four-fold hierarchy vision structure:

To increase the numbers of highly skilled God fearing work force needed for the delivery of high quality holistic optimal healthcare for all clients by engaging in ongoing partnerships with educational institutions for the training of diverse healthcare professionals from all disciplines, students of leadership, and students of Christian Ministry in our facilities.

Rev. Dr. Manjerngie Cecelia Ndebe as founding CEO and board chairman of Christian Global Medical Healthcare Incorporated, takes this vision seriously and has executed educational partnership agreements between CGMH and Duke University in North Carolina, University of Cincinnati, Ohio, Perdue University Global in Indiana, Wesleyan Indiana University in Indiana, Former Kaplan University in Chicago, IL, Spring Arbor University, Michigan, Perdue University Global, Indiana, and Ross Medical Education in Michigan. Dr. Ndebe has trained students from all the above institutions at CGMH. Many more partnerships and affiliations are in the works to help students globally.

In keeping with the above organizational vision, the mission of the CGMH Institute is to inform, inspire, and impart students into becoming confident successful professionals, providers, faculty, and leaders of significance serving their communities, their states/countries, and the universe in need of highly skilled professionals and leaders across disciplines.

Dr. Ndebe as an expert mentoring faculty in popular demand,was powerfully influenced to become a clinical and leadership mentor by an outstanding white Family Nurse Practitioner Linda K. Jowett in an upscale family practice clinic in Binghamton, NY who willingly accepted and served as Dr. Ndebe’s preceptor for her last rotation in primary care in 1999-2000. Linda took Dr. Ndebe under her wings and carried Dr. Ndebe to State of New York Nurse Practitioner conferences and at drug representative lunches and dinners. Linda ensured that Dr. Ndebe had a photo up with the co- founder of the nurse practitioner program in the United States known as Professor Dr. Loretta C. Ford who served as keynote speaker of the 2000 Nurses Day in Binghamton. Dr. Ndebe as a young black woman from Liberia was knocked off her feet by Linda Jowett’s generosity and genuine commitment to diversity in the nursing profession! Dr. Ndebe has committed to train nurse practitioner students with the exuberance and down to earth wisdom with which FNP Linda Jowett taught her and made her comfortable in building strong patient-provider relationships with all races and social economic strata that have served Dr. Ndebe well for years as an FNP. Dr. Ndebe has therefore named the nurse practitioner residency in honor of Linda Jowett.

Dr. Ndebe would have not lived had it not been for the dedication of a retired Liberian nurse mid-wife called Mary S. Kamara who talked Dr. Ndebe’s mom from giving birth in the bush because she was advanced in years and Dr. Ndebe was her tenth child. Prior, with no access to hospitals Dr. Ndebe’s late loving mother gave birth to her other nine children in the bush. So Ma Mary as she is affectionately known by all the hundreds of babies she delivered and saved over 40 years, delivered Dr. Ndebe from her mother’s womb in 1964. Ma Mary again saved Dr. Ndebe’s life when she nearly died bleeding from a mandatory female circumcision she was subjected in the bush in 1968. Ma Mary and another caring nurse mid-wife called Ma Jennifer Barthama injected Dr. Ndebe and nearly 300 other bleeding girls with vitamin K thus saving the girls’ lives. Clinical Externships for other professionals in this institute are name after this great Liberian Heroine that Dr. Ndebe has adopted as her mom.

THE CGMH Insititute Has Three Departments Including:

THE LINDA L. JOWETT NURSE PRACTIONER RESIDENCY at CGMH

This NP residency program is organized to meet the demand for NP placement sites to train both doctor of nursing practice and master of nursing, and post certificate nurse practitioner students specializing in family nurse practitioner, pediatric nurse practitioner, and adult-geriatric nurse practitioner tracks.

The residency program is also opened to independent NPs that graduated a long time ago needing to brush up clinical skills as fellows for three months for entry or re-entry into the profession. We follow student university course objectives in their learning process and sign their hours weekly. To enhance learning, NP students are giving their own exam rooms and necessary equipment to give them real life experience of being a provider in your own office. We give them select patients to meet course objectives and patients that give them stimulating experience.

The first day of clinical typically entails completing on- site training on policies and procedures in the facility. Students follow the mentoring faculty for the first week if they are doing their first clinical rotation and few days for students in for subsequent clinical rotations. Students are taught how to take history, do examinations, order labs and diagnostics, formulate diagnoses, develop a plan including pharmacologic, referrals, diagnostics and lab work orders, education as warranted for patients, and thoroughly document in a professional manner understandable by common jurors.

Senior level NP students coming for their last rotation are given independence with only consultation as needed by students or where the mentoring faculty sees fit. Students are thought how to write electronic and paper based prescriptions. Students are taught how to generate ICD10 codes for diagnoses formulated and CPT codes for level of care provided. They then learn how to complete a super-bill for the billing personnel to take over and submit. They are taught legal issues concerning their learning and future practice including the implementation of HIPAA and all other security laws applicable to healthcare, compliance with CM &S regulations and expectations for practitioners. So by the end of rotation, Senior NP students completely prepared to see their own patients with little guidance by future employers.
All of the past 38 students that have been taught by Dr. Ndebe prior and those that graduated from CGMH residency have all given great oral feedbacks about the positive influence on their experience how the process has shaped their professional life toward success. Of 38 NP students mentored so far, 36 have passed their national board certification exams and gotten employed, one just graduated July 2018 and is studying to take her boards and one from 2016 did not follow guidance to first take a review course before taking the certification exam and she failed and has not yet retaken it. Dr. Ndebe has trained all females including three black NP students, 37 white students. The followings are requirements for being accepted into the CGMH Institute and into the Linda Jowett NP Residency.
