Risk 

Picture
Having  an effective Enterprise  Risk Management (ERM) program that incorporates:
  • Patient Safety
  • Quality
  • Traditional Risk Management
is essential for every hospital on the high-reliability and high-value patient care journey. 

​We can help you identify risks by using the Governance, Risk. and Compliance (GRC) model. Each of these three disciplines creates information of value to the other two. All three impact the same technologies, people, processes, and information.  


We utilize a number of different Risk frameworks that we are certified  to, including :COSO (Committee of Sponsoring Organizations) and  ISO 31000 Risk Management - Principles and Guidelines.  Finally, Cybersecurity should be considered when designing your ERM plan.

By using the GRC model, your hospital will benefit by aligning your patient safety, quality, and traditional risk management objectives with your strategic plan. 

We can provide you with risk advising services as well as internal risk courses to help you on your mission to achieving your vision.

Reusable Medical Equipment 

Picture
We have extensive experience implementing a quality management system (QMS) using ISO 9001  to manage the applicable sterile and high-level disinfection (HLD) processing standards such as:
  • Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI)
  • Association of periOperative Registered Nurses (AORN)
  • ISO/IEC 17025
In the Veteran's Administration, we applied a QMS to all processes related to the reprocessing of Reusable Medical Equipment (RME) in 130+ hospitals.
​
​Considering  the on-going investigation by the FDA concerning reprocessed duodenoscopes, having a risk assessment performed on your hospital's sterilization /HLD processes may benefit you and your community.    

If you have concerns about the amount of quality control / quality assurance with your Sterile Processing/HLD, call and chat with us. ​
