Address Administrative Challenges

Plan Strategy. Manage Change. Enhance Quality. Reduce Risk.

Build a roadmap for the success of your emergency care initiatives.

Need a roadmap or vision to run with for your facility, center or practice's success? Is a vision already in place but still lacks the form and function it needs to run smoothly? Is your facility primarily adult-oriented but you'd like to better serve children or expand your market in that area? No matter what your administrative challenges or concerns, Petrack Consulting is here to help. The service areas below will give you an idea of the breadth of assistance we are able to offer.

• Strategic Plan Development. Get a clear roadmap for success - a strategic plan - that focuses on creating goals and proposing ways and means by which to improve your facility's emergency services; developed in collaboration with facility leadership.
  
  
• Gap Analysis. Learn how far your facility is from (or how near it is to!) realizing or attaining your vision with a comprehensive gap analysis that evaluates the variance between your current and desired environments-and recommends ways to bring closure to it.
  
  
• Strategic Plan Implementation. Is your vision already set? Strategic plan in place? Petrack Consulting collaborates with your facility's leadership and staff to efficiently implement your strategic plan with appropriate timeframes and benchmarks.
  
  
• Organizational Alignment. Address a variety of organizational challenges as we work in collaboration with your facility's leadership to assess:
  
  
  • Your facility's administrative structure in relation to your desired outcomes.
    
  • The relationship between your organization's pediatric and adult ED components.
    
  • The relationship of your hospital's ED to other hospital centers.
    
  • Issues related to specialty consultation practices.
    
  • Ongoing physician/nursing communication challenges.
    
  
  
• Quality Improvement Initiatives. Ensure you are evaluating the appropriate prospective indicators when we recommend new or evaluate current quality improvement efforts. Through a focused chart review, looking at both quality of care and provider documentation, we work collaboratively with you to ensure your QI program is all that it can and should be.
  
  
• Pediatric Emergency Services Cross-Training and Staffing. Extend the reach of primarily adult-focused facilities by creating the appropriate pediatric-care-related structures, policies, training programs and evaluation tools that ensure service needs are being met while maintaining staff morale. If staffing is an issue, explore alternative staffing models and get the pediatric care recruiting and retention help you need.
  
  
• Development of Patient Care Guidelines. Ensure that standards of care are met while granting staff freedom with patient care guidelines that meet the clinical and resource requirements of your organization. Examples of available guidelines include abdominal pain, asthma, seizures and many others.
