The Medical Center of Central Georgia and Care Logistics Announce New Partnership to Improve Patient Care and Quality in the Hospital
MACON, GA (Oct. 4, 2011) – The Medical Center of Central Georgia (MCCG) announces its collaboration with CareLogistics, a leading hospital operating system solution provider for the purpose of employing the CareLogistics resources to gain greater efficiency in operations. This comprehensive approach combines tested process improvement methodologies, enterprise logistics software, facility planning and design strategies to help the hospital better coordinate clinical care processes while more efficiently managing resources.
“This will support our long-standing commitment to clinical excellence in the care we provide our community, while reducing the cost of construction projects and the operational effort required to support our services,” Central Georgia Health System/The Medical Center of Central Georgia President and Chief Executive Officer Don Faulk said. “This is a unique approach and MCCG is proud to be on the cutting edge of bringing this type of health care management solution to meet the needs of our patients.”
Hospitals who utilize the CareLogistics coordination model are better able to integrate all the clinical and non-clinical patient movements and order executions occurring in a hospital environment to achieve optimal patient flow and length of stay while enhancing overall patient satisfaction and quality.
“By using our expertise in increasing operational efficiency, we help lower costs, add patient capacity and improve patient care quality,” Care Logistics President Karl Straub said. “Our Hospital Operating System sets the stage for MCCG to excel by enabling it to deliver increased levels of quality health care while reducing the size of planned construction projects.”
