Palmeira Home+Health and its dedicated staff of skilled nurses and therapists will celebrate National Healthcare Quality Week October 21-27, 2018 with a renewed focus on the organization’s commitment to providing home-based quality of care as patients recover from surgery, accidents, or learn to live better as they age at home.
Sponsored by the National Association of Healthcare Quality (NAHQ), Healthcare Quality Week is the week dedicated to celebrating the contributions professionals have made to improve healthcare quality and bring greater awareness to the profession of health care throughout the continuum of care.
“We partner with hospitals, rehabilitation centers and outpatient clinics to provide optimum quality home-based care in the continuum of care for patients. Our driving mission is to enter each home with respect, treat with compassion and perform with integrity to help our patients recover faster and prevail with better care for better outcomes,” says Palmeira Health Services CEO Gen Barter. “We exist to create a healthier everyday life for our patients and their families.”
According to Barter, the focus of Palmeira Home+Health is on these key criteria among others to deliver higher quality home-based care:
- Use of Point-of-Care technology for better communication with providers
- Care protocol designed to see patients more frequently within the first 2 weeks to stimulate faster recovery
- Patient care scheduled 7 days a week
- Home Safety Plans developed on the first visit to help prevent accidents and falls in patient homes
