John McLain: Making the argument for a new Venice hospital

Venice Regional Bayfront Health remains by our Certificate of Need application to the Agency for Health Care Administration proposing a substitution doctor's facility in the Venice zone. We trust the trade clinic is vital for keeping on giving fantastic medicinal services administrations for occupants of South Sarasota County.

Venice Regional Bayfront Health is the essential and favored supplier inside the Venice zone. It is Venice's doctor's facility, and has generally given care to more than 75 percent of the region's grown-up restorative/surgical patients.

Our initiative group, in conjunction with our Board of Trustees and doctor pioneers, deliberately considered how best to meet our group's therapeutic needs, give advantageous access to patients all through South Sarasota County, upgrade tolerant experience and bolster our parental figures in their work to give quality patient care.

After a top to bottom investigation of the present office and area, we confirmed that building a substitution healing facility would be more practical and cause minimal interruption to our patients. The proposed new area - at the convergence of East Venice Avenue and Jacaranda Boulevard - gives helpful access to Venice occupants, and additionally inhabitants of the Laurel Road zone, Englewood and North Port.

We will keep up some outpatient benefits on the island of Venice, including an unattached crisis division, to guarantee access to required social insurance administrations for inhabitants on the island.

Venice Regional's administrations are customized to the requirements of the Venice territory group. That is the reason we plan to give the same extensive variety of administrations at our new area as we do now. Those administrations do exclude obstetrics on the grounds that there are as of now two intense care suppliers, including Bayfront Health Port Charlotte, serving neighborhood obstetrics patients with extremely huge, great maternity programs.

Also, utilize rates of obstetric administrations in South Sarasota County don't bolster including a third supplier. Add up to determined obstetrics cases in the Venice Regional administration range are declining and are anticipated to decrease 1 percent for each year through 2022.

Despite the fact that the poverty stricken populace in Venice Regional's administration territory is very little, our clinic gives care to impoverished and uninsured occupants. We give this administration without repayment, dissimilar to an openly subsidized healing facility, which gets charge dollars to administer to the destitute. We pay impose dollars, instead of getting them. In 2015, Venice Regional contributed $2.3 million in property and deals charges.

Nature of patient care is at the center of our central goal at Venice Regional. Our readmission rate is not exactly the national rate, and Venice Regional's death rate is preferable or the same over the national rate in everything except one classification. Moreover, in doctor's facility procured conditions, Venice Regional performed superior to the national rate in two classes and the same in the rest.

As we stay concentrated on our every day duty to conveying quality care and a positive patient ordeal, our evaluations in patient experience keep on improving. Also, we can anticipate that patient experience will enhance much more as a consequence of another, cutting edge office.

Venice Regional has been broadly perceived as a Top Performer on Key Quality Measures by the Joint Commission for five back to back years. The healing facility is additionally an Accredited Chest Pain Center with PCI by the Society of Cardiovascular Patient Care, a double Center of Excellence in Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery by Surgical Review Corporation and the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program, a Joint Commission-Certified Primary Stroke Center and Advanced Heart Failure Certification, and a Breast Imaging Center of Excellence by the American College of Radiology. We keep on earning quality honors in numerous territories, including heart wellbeing, stroke treatment and wound care.

We have confronted challenges with our office and keep on making changes as we anticipate developing the new Venice Regional. Our endeavors have not gone unnoticed in the Venice people group, and we are grateful for such support. We welcome the many nearby pioneers and individuals from people in general who have composed letters of support for our application to state controllers.

We are pleased to be Venice's main residence doctor's facility, and we anticipate keeping on serving inhabitants and guests in Venice and South Sarasota County for a considerable length of time to come.
