  • Stamford Hospital Medical and Ancillary Staff Education Manual
    Stamford Hospital Medical and Ancillary Staff Education Manual Stamford Hospital is subject to oversight by several different regulatory agencies. Physicians must be knowledgeable about regulations promulgated by these organizations The Joint Commission, OSHA, State of Connecticut, CMS, CDC, et cetera which apply to their Hospital activities. This document is a summary of pertinent information. The Joint Commission The Joint Commission operates an accreditation program for hospitals and other types of health care providers. The Joint Commission’s primary purposes are to improve the quality and safety of patient care and to accredit facilities as having met a comprehensive set of standards required for reimbursement under the federally-mandated entitlement programs including Medicare and Medicaid. OSHA The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has developed standards that mandate certain actions designed to protect health care workers against infectious hazards from blood and body fluids, including blood borne pathogens such as Hepatitis B and HIV. These standards can be found in the yellow Infection Control Manuals on all patient care units here at Stamford Hospital, and in an online version of this manual in the Infectious Disease folder. I. CARE OF PATIENTS AND PATIENT RIGHTS RESTRAINTS There is a defined protocol for management of patients who require restraints. Restraints are avoided if at all possible as they render the patient helpless and dependent. Restraints should be removed as soon as a less restrictive method of assuring the patient's and safety of others becomes feasible. PHILOSOPHY The approach to restraint and seclusion at Stamford Hospital is protecting the patient's health and safety in the least restrictive environment while preserving their dignity, rights and well-being.

  • Innovation & Patient-Centered Care
    2015 CLINICAL ANNUAL REPORT innovation & patient-centered care ANNUAL REPORT 2015 hen I assumed the position of Chair of the Medical Staff in 2014, it was with the knowledge that I would have the honor of working with an exemplary medical staff with a history of W successes and accomplishments. As 2015 draws to a close and I look back on what was achieved during the year, it is clear that this tradition of excellence has continued. If I may, I would like to highlight a few of these accomplishments: • HCAHPS Physician Communication scores that are consistently at the CMS target or higher. • Planned implementation of a pilot program to address the growing healthcare needs of the geriatric population by the early identification and management of patients with cognitive impairment and delirium. • Selection of Michael Bernstein, MD as the 2015 recipient of the Dr. Melville G. Magida Award. • Recognition of four physicians for their commitment to their patients and the Stamford Community as “Physician of the Quarter” — Kevin Dwyer, MD, Jennifer Henkind, MD, Sarah Kahn, MD, and Kirsten Hohmann, MD. • Successful accreditation surveys by the Department of Health, Joint Commission Triennial Accreditation, and Recertification of programs in Stroke, Joint Replacement and Spinal Fusion, in large measure to the quality of medical staff and the care provided to patients. Re-accreditation of Breast Center and Heart Failure Program. • Successful implementation of ICD-10 that could not have been achieved without the full cooperation and leadership of the medical staff. • Expansion of SHIP. • Medical staff that is extremely loyal to Stamford Hospital as evidenced by the results of the Physician Engagement Survey that showed that almost two-thirds of the medical staff are either employed, closely affiliated or closely aligned with the Hospital.
