What does it mean to be a Planetree hospital?
Planetree believes patients should be the center of our universe; not doctors, nurses, or administration. By putting patients first we keep our eye on the ball, caring for the individual.
Putting patients first at Physicians’ Hospital means -
-
We listen to our patients, respecting individual preferences and needs.
- We provide a choice in hospital gowns to preserve patient dignity.
- Patients may read their charts, ask questions and even make notes of their own.
- Because physical, emotional and spiritual comfort is unique to each individual, we provide opportunities for patients to meet individual needs.
- We provide timely and meaningful information so patients may make informed decisions.
- We work to maintain a supportive, healing environment for patients and their families.
- We will provide a choice of complimentary therapies that may improve and enhance the patient's hospital stay.
Welcoming families at Physicians' Hospital means -
- Families and friends may be involved at any point in the healing process.
- Families and friends may visit, anytime, day or night.
- Families may bring in personal items or food if they believe it will comfort the patient and/or aide in the treatment process.
- Families are encouraged to take an active role in becoming educated and involved in the patient's treatment plan.
Our Commitment to you -
- We will focus on quality of service in meeting patient needs.
- We will actively seek to improve service at all times.
- All PH employees are considered to be part of the care-giving team, either directly through patient involvement, or indirectly through supportive services. Therefore, all PH employees actively support the principles of patient-centered care.
