A Joint Commission, uma autoridade global na melhoria da qualidade e seguran\u00e7a dos doentes nos cuidados de sa\u00fade, concedeu a sua certifica\u00e7\u00e3o Gold Seal a Cirurgia ortop\u00e9dica da Southcoast Health<\/a> centros no Charlton Memorial e no St. Luke's em Advanced Anca total<\/a> e Substitui\u00e7\u00e3o total do joelho<\/a>, anunciaram os funcion\u00e1rios esta semana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A certifica\u00e7\u00e3o - a \u00fanica oferecida em colabora\u00e7\u00e3o com os Academia Americana de Cirurgi\u00f5es Ortop\u00e9dicos<\/a> bem como o Registo Americano de Substitui\u00e7\u00e3o de Articula\u00e7\u00f5es - foi atribu\u00eddo ap\u00f3s um processo que durou seis anos, incluindo visitas extensivas ao local e inqu\u00e9ritos realizados pela Joint Commission, uma organiza\u00e7\u00e3o independente sem fins lucrativos universalmente reconhecida como o acreditador preeminente dos cuidados de sa\u00fade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Houve dezenas de enfermeiros, prestadores de servi\u00e7os e funcion\u00e1rios profundamente empenhados em fazer com que isto acontecesse em nome dos nossos doentes\", afirmou o Presidente e Diretor Executivo da Southcoast Health, Ray Kruger, MD. \"As comunidades que servimos no sudeste de Massachusetts e Rhode Island continuam a apresentar uma necessidade crescente de procedimentos ortop\u00e9dicos. Este selo de ouro oferece mais uma garantia de que voc\u00ea e os seus entes queridos est\u00e3o nas melhores m\u00e3os poss\u00edveis aqui.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chefe de Ortopedia da Southcoast Health Michael Langworthy, MD<\/a>, concordou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Ganhar a certifica\u00e7\u00e3o Advanced Total Hip and Total Knee Replacement da Joint Commission demonstra o desempenho elevado e os resultados bem-sucedidos para os quais nossa equipe trabalha todos os dias\", disse Langworthy. \"Estamos gratos e orgulhosos\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

O objetivo de obter a certifica\u00e7\u00e3o da Comiss\u00e3o Conjunta alinha-se totalmente com a miss\u00e3o abrangente do Southcoast Total Joint Program, disse o Diretor M\u00e9dico Christopher Skeehan, MD<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Dedicamo-nos a prestar cuidados excelentes e baseados em provas a indiv\u00edduos que necessitam ou ir\u00e3o necessitar de cirurgia de substitui\u00e7\u00e3o da anca ou do joelho\", afirmou Skeehan. \"Esfor\u00e7amo-nos sempre por prestar um servi\u00e7o de alta qualidade e rent\u00e1vel de uma forma atempada e abrangente, pelo que o facto de sermos reconhecidos como l\u00edderes valida a nossa vis\u00e3o.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Joseph Lifrak<\/a> felicitou os seus colegas por aquilo a que chamou um feito impressionante.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Os resultados que a nossa equipa produz para os nossos doentes e os protocolos que temos em vigor como programa colocam-nos na vanguarda da cirurgia ortop\u00e9dica moderna de substitui\u00e7\u00e3o das articula\u00e7\u00f5es\", afirmou Lifrak. \"Quando o nosso corpo est\u00e1 com dores debilitantes ou sofremos uma les\u00e3o que tem impacto na nossa vida di\u00e1ria, queremos a melhor ajuda poss\u00edvel. O processo \u00e1rduo da Joint Commission - juntamente com esta honra prestigiosa - confirmou que a Southcoast Health oferece exatamente isso.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

O programa ortop\u00e9dico de Southcoast trouxe a mesma abordagem multidisciplinar para o processo de acredita\u00e7\u00e3o da Joint Commission Advanced Total Hip and Total Knee Replacement que trazem para cada caso, de acordo com a Coordenadora do Programa Alicia Pimentel, NP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Era vital para o nosso sucesso que este fosse um esfor\u00e7o coletivo, e todos contribu\u00edram com as suas compet\u00eancias e conhecimentos para que o programa pudesse brilhar mesmo sob a avalia\u00e7\u00e3o mais rigorosa\", disse Pimentel. \"Os nossos cirurgi\u00f5es, prestadores de cuidados avan\u00e7ados, enfermeiros navegadores, enfermeiros internos e externos, equipas de anestesia, enfermeiros visitantes, pessoal de fisioterapia e reabilita\u00e7\u00e3o, apoio cl\u00ednico em todos os hospitais, programadores, pessoal pr\u00e9, peri e p\u00f3s-operat\u00f3rio... todos desempenh\u00e1mos pap\u00e9is importantes, tal como fazemos para cada doente.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n
