Hospitals are open 24/7 every day of the year to provide essential and specialized health services to our communities. Of course, a hospitalโs reach and impact extend beyond its walls and into the surrounding neighborhoods and communities. Each community may have different needs, and those needs can change. Whether providing transportation for patients to and from an appointment or hospital stay, offering education and employment opportunities, providing affordable housing โ and so much more โ all hospitals and health systems provide innumerable benefits to their communities.

Origin Healthcare loves when there are too many articles published and studies performed supporting the incredible value of advanced care at home (aka "hospital at home") that we can't choose which to comment on. We have personally seen these same outstanding outcomes, savings, and feedback from patients and their families. AND--we look forward to the day when we no longer need to post or highlight this, because the model will be universally adopted and "site appropriate care" will be the standard of care... #advancedcareathome #hospitalathome #healthcarereform https://lnkd.in/eEsHntyZ https://lnkd.in/g6MkpNUp https://lnkd.in/gyQ_wHZi

Great work by the hospital avoidance team at #CALHN AND the community can also play a part in reducing hospital congestion by taking some simple steps for your self and your family/loved ones: 1. Discuss the goals of care with older family members or those with serious health issues - not everyone wants Resus/CPR or ICU 2. Ensure that everyone is aware of what is appropriate/desired and what is not 3. Make sure people's wishes are documented and the document is "findable" 4. Plan ahead - many admissions are the result of people being unwilling to talk about failing health until it becomes critical 5. Organise and accept community services and other help when available EDs and hospitals are very important for acute care - but they are not always the nicest place for those with frailty and gradually failing health. We risk delivering care which is not wanted or helpful when we spend a lot of time and resources without having thought about these simple steps....
Emergency departments are not always the best option for some patients requiring care, particularly for aged care residents or those with restricted mobility and bariatric conditions. To help patients with complex needs avoid unnecessary trips to hospital, the Central Adelaide Local Health Network (CALHN) runs the Hospital Avoidance and Supported Discharge Service, run in partnership with the SA Ambulance Service. The service features a multi-disciplinary team of medical, nursing and allied health care teams who are able to provide face to face and telehealth consultations as well as access to ultrasound, X-rays and a CT scanner. Congratulations to the team working in the Hospital Avoidance and Supported Discharge Service after being named the winner of the Excellence in Strengthening Partnerships category at the 2023 SA Health Awards.

President at CareAllies โ a Cigna company | Focused on connecting care between patients, providers, and payers through value-based care solutions
The infographic from the American Hospital Association included in this article captures the singular role that community hospitals play in the regions they serve. But even in the face of these powerful statistics, there is no way to fully articulate just how great their impact is on the happiness of the people who receive care, but also everyone who knows โ and all too often takes for granted โ the fact that exceptional care is available. The peace of mind that community hospitals provide cannot be overstated. This is one of the many reasons I believe it is so important that we embrace #valuebasedcare that rewards community hospitals for what they naturally strive to achieve โ to help entire communities gain greater health.

This National Hospital Week, we honor America's hospitals, particularly rural and critical-access hospitals that dot the heartland. Working in a rural or critical-access hospital means being part of a close-knit community, and earning trust requires compassion, empathy, and a firm commitment to public health. We admire those who work in these roles to ensure each patient is treated with the same level of quality care they would receive in larger facilities. Staffing for rural and critical-access hospitals is about more than just filling positions; it's about understanding the unique dynamics and needs of communities, and we are honored to be your solution provider in this endeavor. Learn more about the challenges rural and critical-access hospitals face: https://lnkd.in/gY7EjC7D #WeAreHealthCare #LocumTenens #NationalHospitalWeek

Today is a good Monday. We have 18 open spots out of 24 for patients to be seen today. As we continue to improve I wanted to share our latest progress here as we work to improve how we provide primary care to our patients. For those of you who have been following along our team has made a significant and concerted effort to improve our access and the experience of care for our patients. We currently serve over 2000 patients and families in our practice and over the last 6 week cycle we have made a concerted effort to make our office more easy to access, a calmer workplace for our employees and a place where we effectively team together. What did we do? - install a doorbell for patient check ins to limit interruptions for our secretary - work as a team to triage all patient concerns rather than delegate this to a single team member - emphasize that prebooked appointments are for care that can only be received in person (well baby visits, chronic disease, antenatal visits) - work to optimize all visits before they are seen in clinic: this means lab work or imaging done before we see patients in some cases to ensure we can optimize our time in person - instill the principle of acknowledging receipt of requests vs feeling pressure to complete them the moment they are received - emphasizing to our team that their time and health is critical to our success and that being calm is more important than having an inbox at zero. - we have opened nearly every day to be fully accessible by online booking and patients are able to book as it works for them. Do I anticipate some hiccups into the future - it's likely. Are we now in a better mental space to work through them and develop solutions to problems - absolutely. #primarycare #calmcare #slowproductivity OntarioMD Ontario Health | Santรฉ Ontario Catherine Faulds Kimberly Moran Middlesex London Ontario Health Team A shout out to some of the leaders who have helped me see the way through this too: Jason Fried David Heinemeier Hansson Cal Newport

@erik-anderson-601a8591/, Patient Care Executive at Adventist Health, says from the moment he joined the organization he knew it felt different. He said he felt the sense of Aloha. Treating patients and employees like Ohana - or family - is in their DNA. Erik told us that like with any family, there needs to be trust, transparency, and sometimes even tough love for accountability, which is a two-way street. The team at Adventist Health Castle listens to the community and deeply values that feedback when choosing how to best serve their patients and teams. Their holistic approach includes community-centered events like Christmas tree lightings, speaking to students, and other ways that encourage the community to become a partner in their healthcare. Their commitment to clinical excellence combined with their โLove Mattersโ campaign lead them to a Baldrige Award win in 2017. To hear more about this remarkable organization, and learn more about how they teach empathy, value vulnerability, and โmeasure what they treasureโ, check out the full interview with Erik: https://lnkd.in/eJe7qwmM Learn more about Adventist Health Castle: https://lnkd.in/e4FzbHVB Topical time codes: 00:43 - Feeling the Aloha 1:51 - Culture within the organization, Ohana 3:55 - Teaching empathy 7:04 - Love Matters campaign and Baldrige Award win 8:30 - How to connect with the community 11:28 - Community engagement 16:15 - Trust, transparency, and tough love 18:52 - Gratitude as part of Love Matters #healthcare #CompassionateCare #communityengagement #particpatorymedicine #aloha #ohana

EM plays an important role in supporting the management of these events whether itโs coordinating essential resources, working with leaders and clinical staff to find solutions for optimizing flow, and implementing contingency plans or alternate care spaces which can ensure effective response and patient care. This expertise and the ability to convene interdepartmental teams helps to mitigate the impact of overcrowding and maintains the overall functioning of health care facilities. The horizontally and vertically integrated continuum of EMs at the facility/system, local, regional, and state government levels works to ensure care can still be provided appropriately but, as with anything in this world, itโs not without distinct challenges. ๐ซ

Proud to be part of the solution: Medical outreach in the community! As a medical laboratory professional, I'm passionate about ensuring everyone has access to healthcare. In a recent past weeks, I volunteered with a fantastic community outreach program, providing free health screenings and basic lab tests to those in need. Early detection and preventive care are crucial for maintaining good health. By participating in regular checkups and screenings, we can identify potential health issues early on, leading to better treatment outcomes. In the comments below, share your thoughts on the importance of preventative healthcare! #healthcare #medicallaboratory #communityoutreach #preventivecare #healthscreening
