If anyone has a case they want reviewed at MQA just let me know!!
It is an affective way to improve process!!

I have sent a few cases there recent and have had usefull results in nursing protocols/ED flow etc.

ALSO:(2) if you are involved in a case which is having an autopsy and want to see the autopsy report then please request it!! A formal process needs to be followed but I can walk you through and/or Liz Parrott will do it for you.

ALSO: (3) a Any death in ER try to dictate a note as so much more clear for MQA review as all deaths in ER automatically go to MQA. Probably a good thing to do for CMPA purposes too.

Hi all,

A little healthy reminder!!

We have 12 autoclaved re-usable suture kits in each ER!! Don’t throw out!!

We have disposable as a back-up and will be upgrading the needle driver. Every non – surgical weekend at your host site we have no way to clean instruments and hence the back-up!!

You will need to add a sterile towel( packaged on own) and 4 by 4’s as you want at the moment. Packaging may change in the near future.

We also have many more sterilized individual re-usable instruments at both sites ( mosquitos, Kelly’s etc…)
If you aren’t sure if an instrument is disposable or not then don’t throw out as MDRS will sort….

If you see someone “borrowing” our equipement they shoudl sign it out with the clerk/lead nurse and bring back too!!

thanks
John
