Va Medical Center Case Study

I enjoyed reading your post, Ms. Boynton. I think Virginia Mason Medical center transformation of healthcare using the Lean principles, demonstrates how a medical facility supposed to be operated. Virginia Mason medical team found a way to achieve 100% compliance with the CMS measures for VTE prophylaxis for intensive care patients—for 25 consecutive months and always do what is best for the patient. I wish that all hospitals and center will look into on how Virginia Mason team operating system with staff and patients goes. This organization made effective that all level of staff learn and engage in understanding and applying Lean management, and with doing so, they are one of the top hospital with excellent patient care.

The ethical committee should intervene to determine the ethical responsibilities of the medical and administrative staff. The people involved should be held accountable and give them the opportunity to communicate the patients about the medical

In the past few years there has been increasing discussion about how to provide adequate care for the increasing number of veterasn who are eligible for care through the Veterans’ healthcare administration (VHA). There are concerns is that the VHA is not providing the level of access, efficiency, and quality of care that veterans expect. Lee & Begley, (2016) suggest access to care for the veteran population may be resulting in poor health outcomes. In response to these concerns, the Veterans ' Access to Care through Choice, Accountability, and Transparency Act (VACAA) of 2014, also known as the Veterans Choice Act, was created to improve Veterans’ healthcare. The VACAA proposed to do this by expanding the number of options veterans have for receiving healthcare, by providing access for healthcare at non-VA care centers as well as providing for an increase in staffing at VA facilities (U. S. Department of Veterans Affairs, 2016).

Thursday morning was one more day that I experienced nursing in a different setting as a LPN. I was extremely excited to get to the VA with everything in place this time. I knew I would get to do something new! I was picked to go work with DR. Frank Gyimesi and his nurse, Helen, who is a LPN. It has been 4 years since I have worked in women’s health. After going under Helen’s wing and getting educated on the VA, who is eligible, and getting an education on the use of their eligibility, is unbelievable. Women veterans health care is a growing program for today’s health care system due to the number of women that enter the military compared to many years ago. Military sexual trauma is something that

Thank you for your response regards to "Rolling Meadows Community Hospital". John did not act in a fairly manner by not giving the intern the position. Even though John did confess his truly feelings it still ended up being an altercation not only for him but the hospital as well. I agree where you stated "This provide an understanding that just because one doesn’t physically touch or ask for physical contact doesn’t mean you can’t get in trouble for comment." I believe John felt like he could get away with this case just because he was the CEO of the hospital but it obviously does not matter what type of position you hold in a work environment; this should not be tolerated at any work environment.

1. Using the historical data as a guide (Exhibit 6.1), construct a pro forma (forecasted) profit and loss statement for the clinic's average month for all of 2010 assuming the status quo. With no change in volume (utilization), is the clinic projected to make a profit?

Plaintiff, OSCEOLA SC, LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Company d/b/a St. Cloud Regional Medical Center, (“Hospital”) by and through its undersigned counsel, sues Defendant, Rafael Fleites, M.D. (“Physician”), and alleges:

The VA is the primary hope for veterans and where there help comes when they need it. Linda Schwartz, the head of Connecticut’s VA says the problem is probably a lot bigger than what the numbers say. “A veteran’s death often does not get reported as a suicide” (Radelat) The problem is huge and daunting to the VA. Schwartz’s VA is proud that her facilities seem to have largely missed the scandal of the VA, and the VA is offering different therapies to widen out the options for the veterans when they go to the VA.

The Orlando VA Medical Center, established in October 2006 serves over 105,000 veterans around Central Florida, including a Community Living Center, two Mental Health Rehabilitation Treatment Programs/Domiciliary in two different locations, along with three large multi-specialty Satellite Outpatient Clinics and four Community-Based Outpatient Clinics.

Improving medical care can have secondary impacts on the VA health care system. The prevalence of SCI is relatively low, and we assumed that the availability of telehealth would not be a sufficient incentive for patients with SCI to enroll in the VA health care system if they had not done so earlier. Consequently, demand for SCI care only among current SCI patients was explicitly modeled here. We assumed no change in demand for other conditions because there was no guidance for predicting such changes and because the variation in changes could be large. Finally, we assumed no changes in staffing at the VA as a result of telehealth use.

In the interest of improving services to Veterans, VA San Diego Healthcare System (VASDHS) is now offering text message reminders for appointments. Currently, VASDHS sends reminders for appointments in some locations that provide mental health, along with various clinics such as Traumatic Brain Injury, Neurology and Gastroenterology.
