facilities and equipment for the care of pediatric patients in a Community Hospital
Pediatrics, 2003Co-Authors: Ted D SigrestAbstract:Many children who require Hospitalization are admitted to Community Hospitals that are more accessible for families and their primary care physicians but vary substantially in their pediatric resources. The intent of this clinical report is to provide basic guidelines for furnishing and equipping a pediatric area in a Community Hospital.

Research in the Community Hospital.
The Journal of nursing administration, 2001Co-Authors: Robin Newhouse, Mary Etta MillsAbstract:Research is an essential component in professional nursing practice. Although nursing research efforts have increased, there is little evidence of a consistent infrastructure within the Community Hospital to promote research utilization and the conduct of nursing research. There are multiple mechanisms for nurse administrators to support research efforts in the Community Hospital. We discuss the value of research and research utilization in the Community Hospital and suggest some practical strategies for nurse administrators to support research efforts.

Starting a High-Quality Pancreatic Surgery Program at a Community Hospital
Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2015Co-Authors: Jeffrey M. Hardacre, Siavash Raigani, John DumotAbstract:Background Most literature suggests that pancreatic resections should be done by high-volume surgeons at high-volume Hospitals to optimize patient outcomes. However, patient preference and insurance requirements may restrict Hospital location. After careful planning, a high-volume pancreatic surgeon started performing pancreatectomies at a Community Hospital.

Understanding the Models of Community Hospital rehabilitation Activity (MoCHA): a mixed-methods study
BMJ open, 2017Co-Authors: John R.f. Gladman, John Buckell, John Young, Andrew Smith, Claire Hulme, Satti Saggu, Mary Godfrey, Pam Enderby, Elizabeth Teale, Roberto LongoAbstract:Introduction To understand the variation in performance between Community Hospitals, our objectives are: to measure the relative performance (cost efficiency) of rehabilitation services in Community Hospitals; to identify the characteristics of Community Hospital rehabilitation that optimise performance; to investigate the current impact of Community Hospital inpatient rehabilitation for older people on secondary care and the potential impact if Community Hospital rehabilitation was optimised to best practice nationally; to examine the relationship between the configuration of intermediate care and secondary care bed use; and to develop toolkits for commissioners and Community Hospital providers to optimise performance. Methods and analysis 4 linked studies will be performed. Study 1: cost efficiency modelling will apply econometric techniques to data sets from the National Health Service (NHS) Benchmarking Network surveys of Community Hospital and intermediate care. This will identify Community Hospitals9 performance and estimate the gap between high and low performers. Analyses will determine the potential impact if the performance of all Community Hospitals nationally was optimised to best performance, and examine the association between Community Hospital configuration and secondary care bed use. Study 2: a national Community Hospital survey gathering detailed cost data and efficiency variables will be performed. Study 3: in-depth case studies of 3 Community Hospitals, 2 high and 1 low performing, will be undertaken. Case studies will gather routine Hospital and local health economy data. Ward culture will be surveyed. Content and delivery of treatment will be observed. Patients and staff will be interviewed. Study 4: co-designed web-based quality improvement toolkits for commissioners and providers will be developed, including indicators of performance and the gap between local and best Community Hospitals performance. Ethics and dissemination Publications will be in peer-reviewed journals, reports will be distributed through stakeholder organisations. Ethical approval was obtained from the Bradford Research Ethics Committee (reference: 15/YH/0062).
