hospital care

After Thanksgiving and often a meal that leaves one a bit bloated and listless, consider this.

You would think that with all the emphasis on the need for a restful night's sleep, getting a night's rest while hospitalized would be a snap. You, of course, would be incorrect.

Identifying characteristics are essential to ensuring patient safety - so that the right treatment meets the right patient. Did you ever consider how many times you are asked your name and date of birth when seeking medical care?

When it comes to seeking medical care, my focus is always on: Who is the best person for the job (replete with mounting evidence of good outcomes)? Which hospital is most familiar with the diagnosis at hand?
