The OR can be a lot to take in as a patient, and can be the source of a lot of stress and misunderstanding. So what does JPS do differently in the OR to communicate better with patients and team members to cultivate a positive and safe environment for all?

Tatiyana Giddings and Brian Maschino get to listen to some voices from the OR and sit with RN clinical manager Allison Nelson to hear about the huddle process, and all the hands it takes to keep this well-oiled machine running.

As JPS expands westward, how do we build and add upon the strong sense of community existing in diverse pockets across Tarrant County? And how does the community help in return by keeping us a pillar for health delivery? Polytechnic Health Center is that pillar for its area, central to Tarrant County. Could there be something about the care provided there that could be replicated abroad?

Brian Maschino and Tatiyana Giddings chat with Dr. Robert Richard about the special ingredients that make the Polytechnic Health Center an anchor for its community.
