Open, Sesame – the first step is vital.

Optimization of hospital stay from the start, identifying potential epidemiological risks, hospital processes organization. New quality in old facility – is it possible?

As you make your bed, so you must lie on it.

20 min.

Being admitted in a hospital ward for most patients means the ‚start’ of the treatment. How can we effectively use the time from patient registration? What are the goals of the hospital?

Get the ride! – is it really necessary?

15 min.

Bringing the patient into the surgery room on a trolley is in most cases historic/ traditional procedure.
Is the patient really ‚sentenced to’ the ride in his pyjamas?

Break – 10 min.

Scalpel blade is only one out of the many factors that decide on successful surgery.
How clinical teams should cooperate in order to eliminate risks of surgical site infections.

Don’t sleep, heal!

First hours post-surgery are very often vital for patient’s recovery and his wound.
How can we optimally use this time, also in the aspect of wound healing?

A brief debriefing…

20 min.

A well organized patient care translates to a timely and safer discharge.
The post-operative care should also include treatment of potential wound healing complications and wound monitoring. Are we ready for „Home care”?
