  • Great Things Are Happening in Virginia Hospitals
    Great Things are Happening in Virginia Hospitals 2015-2020 Five Years of Shared Learning and Improving Executive Message Colleagues, Great things truly are happening in Virginia hospitals. That simple statement is more than a slogan. It’s a distillation of everything that occurs within the four walls of hospitals around the Commonwealth, as well as outside of hospitals through direct engagement with the communities they serve. Virginia hospitals are leading the way to improve the quality and safety of care for patients. They are at the forefront of advancements in medical research, and in partnering with state officials on efforts to improve public health, address ma- ternal mortality, provide wraparound services to victims of violence in high-need communities, and even in the develop- ment of skilled labor job-training programs. Hospitals are also involved in the response planning and preparation for un- thinkable emergencies, and in the training of future doctors and nurses to meet the growing health care treatment needs of an aging population. Working through the VHHA Board of Directors, Virginia’s hospitals and health systems in 2010 established a shared strategic goal to demonstrate top-tier health care quality and safety performance based on nationally-accepted perfor- mance measures. Since then, improvements have been achieved in several key metrics, including a steady decline in cen- tral-line associated bloodstream infections, a reduction of readmission rates, and improvement in patient satisfaction scores. To facilitate that work, the VHHA Center for Healthcare Excellence was established in 2015 to help foster the coordination of hospital-based improvement efforts. Five years into this journey, considerable progress has been made.

  • Virginia's Conversion Health Foundations Report
    Virginia’s Conversion Health Foundations 2010 Report to the Joint Commission on Health Care Submitted October 2011 VIRGINIA’S HEALTH CONVERSION FOUNDATIONS – REPORT TO THE JOINT COMMISSION ON HEALTH CARE 2010 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY During its 1998 Session, the Virginia General Assembly passed House Joint Resolution (HJR) 179, requesting an annual update from the conversion health foundations regarding their charitable activities. In response, the Virginia Consortium for Health Philanthropy is submitting its 2010 Report to the Joint Commission on Health Care, which outlines the activities of Virginia’s conversion foundations. This is the 14th annual report from the foundations. Virginia’s 13 conversion health foundations are: The Alleghany Foundation, The Bedford Community Health Foundation, Bernardine Franciscan Sisters Foundation, The Cameron Foundation, Danville Regional Foundation, Greensville Memorial Foundation, The Harvest Foundation, Jenkins Foundation, John Randolph Foundation, Obici Healthcare Foundation, Portsmouth General Hospital Foundation, Williamsburg Community Health Foundation, and the Wythe-Bland Foundation. Eight (8) of these foundations are the result of sales and/or lease to for-profit entities and, therefore, are required by HJR 179 to report. This year, 11 of the foundations are reporting. A number of other Virginia foundations also support health-related services, but are not the result of a conversion. Among these are: Augusta Health Foundation, Campbell-Hoffman Foundation, Carilion Foundation, Centra Health Foundation, The Community Foundation Serving Richmond and Central Virginia, Mary Washington Hospital Foundation and Stafford Hospital Center Foundation, the Medical Society of Virginia Foundation, Northern Virginia Health Foundation, Richmond Memorial Health Foundation, Riverside Health System Foundation, Sentara Health Foundation, Smyth County Community Foundation, and the Virginia Health Care Foundation.

Not only do they provide the care that every Virginian needs, but hospitals and health systems rank among the state’s largest employers and economic engines. Unfortunately, Virginia’s hospitals and health systems are facing unprecedented levels of change and uncertainty, driven by both underlying market forces and policy challenges. For our part, Virginia’s hospitals and health systems are committed to achieving top-tier performance in health care quality, safety, service and value. Our collective vision is to help make Virginia the healthiest state in the nation and do our part to advance the health and economic opportunities for all Virginians. This is the first report of what will be an annual series of reports detailing our health systems’ role in our Commonwealth. It is our sincere hope that you will find these reports insightful and share with others the stories they tell. After all, it is for you, your family, neighbors and co-workers that Virginia’s hospitals and health systems are prepared to care.
