Achieving this level of quality for two and one-half years is really a distinction.” The scores (A, B, C, D or F) are assigned to hospitals based on preventable medical errors, injuries, accidents, and infections. The Hospital Safety Score was compiled under the guidance of the nation’s leading experts on patient safety and is designed to give the members of the public information to protect themselves and their families. The Leapfrog Group is a nationally recognized, not-for-profit, independent healthcare transparency advocacy group. The Hospital Safety Score uses national performance measures established by the Leapfrog Hospital Survey, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. A hospital’s overall performance in keeping patients safe from preventable harm and medical errors determines its score. According to The Leapfrog Group, “the Hospital Safety Score is one piece of information consumers should use when planning a hospital stay.” The group recommends that healthcare consumers seek out and use hospitals that receive an “A” Hospital Safety Score. According to Leapfrog, the safety measurements considered represent the very basic blocks of medical care, such as computerized medication control, nurse staffing levels, and even hand-washing. One of the most significant problems in today’s healthcare is the failure to make safety and quality information available to the public so that consumers can make informed choices about where to receive care. The purpose of the Hospital Safety Score is to bring this information to light in a way that is easy for consumers to understand.

Giancola President & CEO South County Hospital Healthcare System “Population health management” is a term you’ve probably come across recently. You may have seen it in the newspaper or heard it during a radio or television news report. Chances are, though, you don’t fully understand it. While it’s a concept that may sound remote and even cold, what it translates into is something good—and far from remote—especially for the younger generation. But, truly, population health management is good for all of us, including folks with chronic health problems, no matter what our age. It’s also the way of the future, particularly for community hospitals. We are, therefore, embracing it. At the heart of population health management is a belief that the primary role of a healthcare system and/or hospital is to improve the state of health of the individuals living within its reach through education, preventive care, and direct active support of an environment that allows and encourages members of that community to engage in healthy lifestyles. A key tenet of this philosophy is that hospitals must take deliberate steps to move away from focusing only on the effects they can have on health once a person is within the walls of their facilities. This perspective represents a significant shift from the traditional model of providing episodic care, usually at a crisis point in a person’s state of health, and then sending him on his way. While there will always be a need for urgent medical attention, and in a hospital setting—serious fractures, systemic infections, Cesarean section births, and so on—much of what we do could become unnecessary if we did a better job of fostering good health before disease gets a chance to begin. Medical science and technology have progressed at an amazing pace over the past generation. We marvel at what good these advances can do. As a society, we are spending more on healthcare and using healthcare more than ever. At the same time, however, we’ve seen an increase in rates of obesity, diabetes, cancer, heart disease, lung disease, and other conditions that can be largely prevented. So, what’s going on? What we have learned is that we are putting a lot of resources in the wrong places. Now we marvel at the recognition that we can take relatively simple steps to improve and safeguard health. That view forms the heart of population health management, and it is reshaping the mission of organizations such as ours. That’s why we’re sponsoring a series of cooking classes that will teach healthful cooking on a low-income budget, offered by Thundermist; why we’re meeting with local school administrators on how we can impact the health of young people; why we’re placing nurse care managers in primary care practices to help patients with chronic disease (diabetes, heart disease, and so on) learn how to improve their health and avoid visits to the hospital; why we’ve launched a community health team that includes “peer navigators” to work with high-risk individuals who need help accessing behavioral health, transportation, and financial counseling to break the cycle of poor health. We welcome this role, and I invite you to be part of it. To be successful, any initiative to improve community health requires the input and efforts of many. I’d like to hear your ideas and hope you will write to me; my email address is lgiancola@schospital.com. I hope 2014 was a healthy and fulfilling year for you, and that your New Year is off to a good start. Wishing you all the best in 2015. lgiancola@schospital.com South County Hospital Healthcare System Board of Trustees Eve T. Keenan, R.N., Ed.D. Chairperson M.
