SALMON WITH BALSAMIC THAI CHILE GLAZE INGREDIENTS 4 scallions 1 tablespoon Asian sesame oil 3 garlic cloves (minced) 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger 1/2 cup sweet Thai chile sauce 2 tablespoons light brown sugar 3 tablespoons soy sauce 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar 4-6 salmon fillets (skinless) 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice DIRECTIONS 1. Slice the green tops of the scallions. Mince the white parts and put into a small bowl with the sesame oil, garlic and ginger. In another small bowl, stir together the chile sauce, brown sugar, soy sauce, and balsamic vinegar. Set all of these aside while you sear the salmon.

2. Heat a 12 inch cast iron skillet over high heat.

Add the vegetable oil. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Add the salmon fillets to the hot skillet and sear until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Turn the fillets and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from the skillet and cover to keep warm.

3. Wipe out the skillet and return it to the stove, turn heat down to medium. Add the sesame oil, garlic, ginger, scallion mixture and stir, about 30 seconds. Add the chile sauce, brown sugar, soy and vinegar mixture and cook, stirring 2-3 minutes until syrupy. Stir in the lime juice.

4. Return the salmon to the skillet with the glaze.

Liberally coat the filets. Garnish with the scallion greens.

The latest Performance Pay Tracking Period began on March 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”

SEPTEMBER 2014 2. Setting clear expectations:

“Set transport length expectation”

“Set a triage level expectation before arriving at the hospital” medic911.com

MEDIC PR is tinkering with ideas for the 2016 EMS Week. With less space to do events, we’re thinking outside the box for things to do during the May event. But we need your help...

Drop by and help “test” Papa Libretto’s Street Pizza food truck. We want to see how they can handle a MEDIC crowd...

To be a part of this food truck test experience, please bring cash or credit. Unfortunately, this event is not paid for by MEDIC.
