SUNRISE, Fla., May 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- North American Partners in Anesthesia (NAPA), the nation's leading single-specialty anesthesia management company, will begin providing anesthesia services at Kaleida Health's affiliate, Brooks-TLC Hospital in July 2026. NAPA will support the hospital's continued evolution and transition to a newly constructed facility.
Located at 529 Central Ave. in Dunkirk, NY, Brooks-TLC Hospital is an acute care community hospital serving the Lake Erie region. As the organization looks ahead to a new, modernized hospital, it sought an anesthesia partner capable of strengthening clinical performance today while laying the groundwork for long-term surgical success.
"Our goal is to build an anesthesia program that is clinically strong and operationally sound," said Kenneth R. Morris, MBA, President and CEO of Brooks-TLC Hospital. "NAPA brings a model that aligns culture, quality, and analytics in a way that supports efficiency and strengthens financial performance, ultimately benefiting our patients, surgeons, and perioperative team."
NAPA's nationally recognized quality program, benchmarking insights, and anesthesia-specific revenue cycle expertise will support both clinical excellence and operational effectiveness from day one. With a multilayered clinician-led leadership structure, Brooks gains dedicated on-site anesthesia chiefs backed by broader NAPA resources. This enables real-time decision-making and continuous improvement. Through advanced informatics, NAPA's experience helps enhance throughput and reduce variability.
"Successful anesthesia programs require more than clinical coverage. They require alignment across leadership, data, and operations," said Jay Lee, MD, MBA, Senior Vice President of Clinical Services for NAPA's Northeast Region. "At Brooks Memorial, we're delivering an anesthesia care model that will help the facility function more effectively while providing the highest quality of patient care."
NAPA is working closely with Brooks-TLC Hospital to build a care team focused on patient safety and clinician engagement.
