In an effort to standardize the way personnel communicate in a disaster event, the Kentucky Hospital Association (KHA) has asked that all healthcare facilities adopt new Emergency Codes. The Emergency Management Committee put together a task force to determine what had to change and then implement the changes. Over the next few weeks, you will see educational material arriving in your s, CBLs and other means. There is a big effort in place to help all staff learn and understand the changes that will be coming about for the Emergency Codes. As this material comes out, we ask that you take the time to review it and ask the questions you would like answered. You may contact Gary Sullivan, Director of Security, at extension 1349 or James Monroe at extension We hope that by working together our transition to these new codes can be as smooth and quick as possible.

Seated, left to right: Courtney Hermann, Lab; Caroline Dawson, Center Care. 3 CHC Customer Service Standards Patient, family, and guest satisfaction is a priority at all CHC facilities. Every person we encounter in our job is a customer, and it is our responsibility, regardless of job title, to ensure that their visit or stay is the most comfortable and positive it can be. CHC developed four customer service standards to support this expectation. In this Intercomm and the next three issues, each standard will be featured independently. After the standards are introduced, we will run periodic reminders, tips, and real on-the-job scenarios that demonstrate exceptional approaches to customer service. Stay tuned! CHC s Customer Service Standards: #1 Create a Memorable Experience At CHC, we believe that serving our customers is a privilege. Every time a customer encounters an employee, we want it to be remembered as a sincere and caring moment. We want to create a positive memorable experience! To accomplish this, we need to consistently practice these behaviors: Acknowledge all customers by speaking, making eye contact and smiling. Do not allow anyone to feel ignored. Acknowledge customers at every opportunity in parking lots, hallways, work areas and waiting areas. Use please and thank you, sir and ma am in all conversations when appropriate. Always introduce yourself: state your name, department, and explain to customers what you re going to do for them. Personalize service by using customers names whenever possible. Treat everyone with dignity and respect. Knock before entering patient rooms or someone s office. Use elevators as an opportunity to make a favorable impression. Smile and speak to fellow passengers. Know how to operate telephones in your work area. Ask permission before placing callers on hold. Give numbers before transferring calls in case callers are disconnected. Always thank the customer. Thank them for choosing us, for waiting, for their kindness, for letting us serve them. Be creative and sincere, always looking for opportunities to show appreciation.

The Nurses Walk was held on Saturday, May 12. Nurses from The Medical Center headed the event, which led walkers through The Medical Center campus. The 2012 Nurses Walk was a firsttime event and was organized to honor nurses and raise awareness of their important roles.
4 May is National Stroke Month In 2009, The Medical Center was designated a Primary Stroke Center by The Joint Commission. Since that time, the hospital continues to make great strides in the care of stroke patients. A multidisciplinary Stroke Workgroup spearheads ongoing stroke program evaluation and performance improvement activities. We have achieved and sustained solid performance on our stroke core measures and continue to strive for 100% in all areas, said Bill Singletary, RN, Stroke Program Coordinator. This organizational achievement is only possible with Signs of a Stroke: Sudden numbness or weakness of the face, arm or leg, especially on one side of the body Sudden confusion, trouble speaking or understanding Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination Sudden, severe headache with no known cause Jacksonian Days 4 the dedication, hard work and commitment of everyone on the healthcare team who takes care of stroke patients. The Workgroup focuses on evidencebased protocols, risk assessments and screenings, the appropriate and timely use of medications and other interventions for stroke patients from presentation in the Emergency Department through discharge from the hospital. But employees on the frontline who care for stroke patients are not the only ones who play a role in stroke care. All employees can strengthen our efforts as a Primary Stroke Center by educating our patients, families, caregivers and the community. Every employee can dramatically impact stroke care in our region and help save lives, said Bill. Teach others about the signs and symptoms of stroke to recognize in themselves and others. Stress to people that they should not drive to the Emergency Department but should call 911 at the first sign of stroke. EMS can assess and begin treating stroke patients while activating the Emergency Department to prepare for the patient s arrival.
