Hospital

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A hospital is a health care institution providing patient treatment with specialized staff and equipment. The best-known type of hospital is the general hospital, which has an emergency department.

The hospital you are admitted in may seem clean, but evidences suggest that the hospitals are one of the most likely places to get infected while harboring numerous pathogens. During patients’ care, the hospital staff can also become contaminated and carry disease causing microorganisms. This may cause harmful infections in the patients entering hospitals who are already immune compromised [11]. So, hospital acquired infections or health care associated infections (HAI) are the contaminations…

She is an African American woman with a high-risk pregnancy, who is being…

At least entire FY 2018 is necessary to turn BMH around. For fulfilling BMH's responsibility to provide the…

Hospital readmission, a growing health concern, tallied in a whopping $17 B in Medicare cost for unplanned hospitalizations. With a variety of trends that account for the increasing cases of the elderly population at risk for hospital readmission, the authors discuss an in-depth evaluation on why this occurs. Readmission, refers to a return to the hospital after discharge from a recent stay where rates are reported at 30, 60, and 90-day intervals after discharge. Even though the elderly, aged 65…

it is the same thing. Hospital management discuss budgets for each of their department and try to find ways to cut back; each year it becomes a “do more with less” environment. Like any company or corporation, hospital management is charged with finding ways to labor costs and operating. Department heads meet to offer suggestions on how they believe costs can be cut back to meet the budget given to their department for the next fiscal year. One department in a hospital that struggles to stay…

INTRODUCTION Hospital admission is a stressful experience that can happen to anyone at any point in one’s life.
