Hospital Comments

Carotid Endarterectomy Surgery

We have one surgeon who performs carotid endarterectomies, but she is doing fewer and fewer of them -- question if she plans on continuing this procedure. Although her outcomes are good, she seems to be moving in a different direction.

Intensive Care Unit Physician Staffing

We participate in the Keystone ICU project and have implemented daily goals, bloodstream infection elimination, ventilator-associated pneumonia elimination.
