  • "Our experience with CPR has been great! The best part of working with the recruitment program was getting to know the process and being comfortable working with all of you.  This was the first time for our clinic to step out and recruit and it has been a great learning experience. You answered all my questions in a timely manner and the recruits we looked at were all qualified for what we needed."
    Judy KendallBoard Member, South Routt Medical Center

  • "We now have 5 active members and have had 2 meetings, and members are engaged and want to meet every other month. Data is improving: EMC numbers exceed peer groups, and ED inappropriate utilization is decreasing due to new coding process."- Weisbrod Hospital
  • "We've had iCARE Successes with Registration/Wait time improvements by: Adding a camera in the radiology waiting department, registration gals push a button to notify radiology of a registered patient, a doorbell within the radiology department waiting area for patients to push, and did a time study to see where the process was broken. Now we use a card system for patients that leave the clinic to go to lab or radiology." - Melissa Memorial Hospital
