Checklist Boards Corporation, August 2015, Rochester NY—The Checklist Boards Corporation (www.checklistboards.com) was recently chosen by the Naval Medical Center in San Diego to design and deliver custom Time Out Checklist Boards to their hospital.
Rick Taylor, President & CEO of Checklist Boards stated "Working closely with the medical staff we were able to develop a custom checklist time out white board that will insure the Time Out protocol is followed correctly and efficiently every time a surgical procedure is conducted." Taylor continued, "Our Time Out Checklist Boards have been shown to reduce readmissions by up to 30%, helping three hospitals save over $2 million in the first year. Most importantly, they are proven to reduce errors and save lives." The Naval Medical Center is specifically designed to hang from an IV mounting fixture above the patient bed. This allows for one side of the board to be used as a white board, it rotates around for the Pre-Op Time Out.
Checklist Board Corporation inspires to help providers and institutions continuously improve healthcare processes through the implementation of a comprehensive checklist. Reducing adverse events and driving improvement in patient outcomes.
