EXPERIENCE

Chief Nursing Officer, International Medical Center (IMC)

IMC is a state-of-the-art 300-bed for-profit hospital established in partnership with Rockford Clinic. It is considered one of the chief referral centers providing multidisciplinary health services. IMC has 5 centers of excellence that offer very specialized high quality care.

Oversee 660 FTEs in the nursing manpower. Responsible for all nursing operational activities at IMC. These responsibilities range from complete drafting of the budget to complete commissioning of the hospital in terms of manpower, supplies, equipment, and policy and procedures.

Heavily involved in the strategic direction of the hospital, service line management, and marketing.

Accomplishments at IMC

1. Culture:
Nursing department comprised 100 nurses in June 2006. This department had no cohesive plan or well-defined culture that gave direction to the nursing department. In the last 6 months we were able to wrap nursing around the IMC culture, motivating staff about the direction and prospective plans for IMC. The deep sense of IMC mission is very palpable anywhere in the nursing department.

2. Recruitment:
Manpower of the nursing department grew from 100 nurses in June 2006 to 400 nurses at present. Nursing was put in charge of the full process of recruiting, which gave us the driver-seat view of the process. Nursing recruitment has been very selective, whereby we picked 100 nurses out of 3,000 candidates. The work continues to reach about 600 nurses for the hospital-wide manpower.

3. Nurse Managers:
We have hired all 12 nurse managers. All nurse managers are high caliber, with a collective clinical experience adding up to more than 100 years.

4. Organizational Chart:
The nursing organizational chart was completed whereby it could be adjusted to fit IMC organizational chart. The organizational chart was designed to offer the best clinical support to the patient population. Every nursing division has a clinical nurse specialist focused on advancing the clinical practice.

5. Nursing Budget:
The 2006 and 2007 manpower distribution and budget have been completed and submitted to the CEO.

6. Patient Satisfaction:
Nursing department initiated the patient satisfaction surveys in IMC. Nursing scored over 95% patient satisfaction continually.

7. Home Health Department:
In October, Home Health came under Nursing and did 200 visits the first month and 300 visits the next. The plan is to have 1,400 visits per month yielding gross revenue of 3,300,000 SR annually. Home Health department now has a plan to have 32 staff in total. We have 6 staff now doing over 350 visits a month. We have focused on comprehensive home healthcare that includes not only nursing but also physical therapy, occupational therapy, and social work. Presently, Home Health is a good revenue generator, and should have a dominant role at IMC and the community.
