RH Patients First masthead
Did You Know?
That which is measured improves. That which is measured and reported improves exponentially.”
-- Karl Pearson
 
Our Patients First journey is under way and leadership has started to use the MyRounding (R) tool. MyRounding (R) is an easy-to-use tool that allows us to measure and report our improvement. Leaders round on direct reports in order to facilitate communication, enable staff to be heard and ensure their needs are met, and create a “stoplight” of items requiring attention, along with identification of resolutions. Ultimately, MyRounding (R) ensures we create an environment for Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, Rutgers Health, and our patients, that supports our clinical mission.

Joint Commission FAQs Tip of the Week:
For next week, I highlight the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine's monthly Grand Rounds titled, " Providing Better Quality of Healthcare by Improving Microbiology Services " by Dr. Dejan Nikolic of Cooper University Health Care. The presentation will be held on  Thursday, April 18, from 3 to 4 p.m., in the Medical Education Building Room 102.
