As previously noted, the latest Performance Pay Tracking Period began on November 1st. We are striving to meet the Patient Satisfaction goal of a ≥ 65% rating (experience as “Excellent”). In order to create a comfortable margin of performance, while continuing to improve the patient experience, we would like to share some feedback from recent patient focus groups. The two areas that patients value the most are: 1. Communication from the treating crew: “Explain treatment options and procedures” “Provide reassurance and compassionate communication with the patient” 2. Setting clear expectations: “Set transport length expectation” “Set a triage level expectation before arriving at the hospital”

Dear Sam and Ashley, I cannot thank you enough for allowing me to experience how the Emergency Medical System works by tagging along as a student rider. Not only did I learn important healthcare education and advice from you both, but I also obtained valuable life lessons by viewing day to day occurrences with a much deeper outlook than before. For these teachings, I will be forever grateful. You both impacted my life more than you will ever know, and I am beyond appreciative of what you do for others around you. Watching you both work with the patients, speaking to them in such a kind, respectful, and professional manor, was a valuable teaching process of its own. When I care for patients in the future, I will remember the two of you as role models for how I want to treat my patients. You made them feel safe, protected, and like they were the most important person in the world at that point in time. I believe hospital workers who never get to see what you do as first responders probably take for granted everything you do for both the patient and the healthcare team. Being lucky enough to have had this experience, I will always remember to be incredibly grateful for what hard work goes on behind the scenes before a patient arrives at the ED. Thank you for all you do for others and for allowing me to experience such a wonderful learning experience. Best Wishes, Mackenzie Domske For more information, please contact Lester Oliva at lestero@medic911.com
