This enabled them to gather further insights in regards to the ACS findings and uncover any potential deficiencies or weaknesses. The consultants worked with the trauma center team including a deep dive on each deficiency, weakness, and recommendation plan was developed to address each of these.
Philips also provided support and guidance on program management processes and methodologies.
The hospital’s new trauma program manager and medical director are working as an integrated team along with their supportive staffs. A new collaborative culture has emerged within the entire facility.
The ACS surveyors made a return visit in 6 months and were pleased to see that all type 2 deficiencies (16) and weaknesses (8) had been addressed and were removed.
