Case Highlight

Led IC remediation at a 320-bed community hospital that had received a Requirement for Improvement in 3 consecutive surveys. Clean survey on next cycle.

"Life Safety Code findings account for nearly a third of all TJC citations. I spent 12 years writing those citations. Now I help you close them before the survey team arrives."

Case Highlight

Identified 47 LSC deficiencies at a CAH during mock rounds that would have generated an Immediate Threat to Life finding. All resolved prior to actual survey.

"Most hospitals are collecting OPPE data but not benchmarking it against national percentiles. That gap is exactly what surveyors probe during the medical staff tracer."
