INPATIENT CARE INCLUDES ACUTE CARE, SWING BED AND INTERMEDIATE SWING BED. OUTPATIENT SERVICES INCLUDE OBSERVATION CARE, 24/7 EMERGENCY CARE ALONG WITH SPECIALTY PHYSICIANS CLINICS AND NUMEROUS ANCILLARY SERVICES. THE EVALUATION OF COVERAGE FOR THE EMERGENCY ROOM WAS ONE OF THE TOP PRIORITIES FOR 2015. THE ABILITY TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE FIVE PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANS WITHIN THE SYSTEM WAS PARAMOUNT TO ENABLING THE PROVISION OF EXCELLENT QUALITY CARE WITHIN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT. THE SCH LEVEL IV CENTER PROGRAM WAS RE-SURVEYED AND RE-DESIGNATED IN FEBRUARY 2015 PROVIDING AN ADDITIONAL ELEMENT FOR TRAUMA PATIENTS BROUGHT TO THE ER. MANY PROGRAMS IDENTIFIED THROUGH COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT ARE CONTINUALLY BEING ENHANCED AND ADDED TO AS WELL. THE IMPORTANCE OF DIABETIC EDUCATION AND SUPPORT FOR OUR PATIENTS CONTINUE TO BE A PRIMARY FOCUS FOR SCH AND THE HOSPITAL WAS RECERTIFIED AS A DIABETIC EDUCATION FACILITY IN 2015. BREASTFEEDING AND THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE HIGH FIVE PROGRAM REMAINS IN THE FOREFRONT OF THE PERINATAL COMMITTEE. OVER FIFTY SOME MOMS AND BABES WERE SERVED BY THE CURRENT LACTATION COUNSELOR WHO IS CONTINUING EDUCATION TO BECOME A LACTATION CONSULTANT. SCH PARTNERED WITH A NEIGHBORING HOSPITAL TO CONDUCT THE 2015 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT. CONTINUATION TO PROMOTE HEALTH, WELLNESS AND CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION REMAINED A PRIORITY. THROUGH THIS SCH THEN CONDUCTED SEVERAL MINI HEALTH FAIRS. FOR THE WOMEN, THE HEALTH FAIR FOCUSED ON WOMENS HEALTH ISSUES, HEART ISSUES, BLOOD PRESSURES, BLOOD SUGARS, SKIN CANCER CHECKS, DIETARY INFORMATION, MAMMOGRAMS AND SELF-BREAST EXAMS. FOR THE MEN, MENS HEALTH ISSUES ALONG WITH DIABETIC COUNSELING, BLOOD SUGAR CHECKS, NUTRITION FOR MEN, BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKS, AND SKIN CANCER SCREENINGS WERE PROVIDED. ACCESS TO MENTAL HEALTH CONTINUES TO BE A CHALLENGE AND REMAINS A PRIORITY. ANOTHER IMPORTANT FOCUS FOR SCH IS TO CONTINUE TO BUILD A STRONG ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORD TO BETTER SERVE OUR PATIENT POPULATION ENHANCING PROVISION OF CARE TO THE YOUNG AS WELL AS THE OLD WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY AND SURROUNDING AREAS THAT WE SERVE. THE CURRENT EHR SYSTEM WAS BOUGHT OUT BY CERNER AND SO TRANSITION TO A NEW EHR IS BEGINNING.

THE HCAHPS SCORES ARE USED TO KEEP STAFF INFORMED OF PATIENT SATISFACTION AND AREAS OF IMPROVEMENT. SCHS MISSION IS TO PROVIDE QUALITY OF HEALTH AND CARE GIVEN IN OUR COMMUNITIES.
