GBMC Quality Metrics-NSQIP

The National Surgical Quality improvement Project follows randomly selected, consecutive surgical patients for thirty days following their procedures to give an accurate measure of the development of a surgical site infection or other complications. Now more than ever, patients are seeking information about the quality of care they're receiving and what their hospitals are doing about improve. GBMC has always maintained a focus on quality, especially in the area of surgical quality improvement. Because of this commitment, GBMC participates in the American College of Surgeons National Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP.) This is the leading nationally validated, risk-adjusted, outcomes-based program to measure and improve the quality of surgical care. Only about 10 percent of hospitals participate in this program. GBMC feels that the in-depth knowledge gained from NSQIP makes this an important investment. Patient education is a huge part of this program and GBMC has made a significant commitment of time and resources to ensure patients are receiving proper education on a number of issues such as home care, postoperative instructions and rapid identification of issues that could be or may lead to infection. Patients should always follow the instructions of their care providers to reduce the risk of such issues as surgical site infections.
