November 21, 2005-Columbus, Ohio- The December 2005 Today’s SurgiCenter
Magazine has named The Ohio Orthopedic Center Surgery Institute as Who’s Who in the Ambulatory Surgery Industry. This Who’s Who list is aimed at saluting those who work toward championing “ambulatory surgery”, or “outpatient surgery” as the preferred method of healthcare delivery. This nationwide Who’s Who recognition will also be announced in the January 2006 issue, part of the ASC annual Legislative Update as reform legislation makes its way to Capitol Hill.
This accolade was joyfully received by the physicians and staff in The Ohio Orthopedic Center Surgery Institute. “Our physicians and staff are experts in the care of orthopedic and pain management patients. The environment is calming and incorporates the patient’s family in their care from the start. Patient satisfaction is very high (95%) and our patients continue recommending us to their family and friend without hesitation,” says Lynn Saul, administrator. “Efficiency is vital to our success. An experienced staff, state-of-the art equipment and OR suites, and the use of Stryker’s Trio beds contribute to our low turnovers and high patient safety. The care of the pain management patient is segregated from the surgery area, allowing us to better individualize their care and meet their needs. Thirty percent of our surgical patients receive regional blocks, preventing postoperative pain and avoiding the need for an overnight stay. Our patient transfers, emergency department visits and post-operative infections combined are less than .003
percent.”
