Read the Century Campaign Press Release
We are transforming the way we deliver in-patient care •A new, innovative Collaborative Care model of patient care that includes: –The latest thinking in terms of safety and quality; –More access to doctors and nurses; and –Teamwork involving patient, staff, and family. •Redesigning and transforming patient rooms into private rooms. •Reducing the cost of care.
What is the Collaborative Care Model of Care? •Physicians, nurses and pharmacists together meet with patients to develop care plan with patient driven schedule and goals •From admission to discharge, each patient is involved in their care •Care plan is visible to both patient and family in room •Collaborative Care will revolutionize the patient experience at Theda Clark
What is Changing? •The physical layout of each hospital room must be completely transformed to support the new approach. •Private room designed for patient/staff safety, and to support the Collaborative Care processes.
What our patients are saying… “Collaborative Care truly is a different and better process for inpatient care than anything I’ve experienced. The caregivers were compassionate and clearly understood their roles and responsibilities. The medicine and tests were well organized and clearing communicated to us.”
