As a rapidly growing health system serving a wide geographical and largely rural area, Deaconess needed a way to address capacity and access to care issues. After an extensive internal and external search, they recognized that the GE Healthcare Command Center platform was exactly what they needed.
“When we found GE, we said, ‘This is really everything we have been asking for forever,’” said Dr. Phillip Adams, MD, MPH, Medical Director for DCARE.
In this episode, Dr. Adams and Amy Kruger, BSN, RN, CCRN, Clinical Manager for DCARE, share how they made the business case for investing in their DCARE (Deaconess Coordinating and Advancing Resources for Excellence) command center. They also walk through some key initiatives that DCARE supports, including increasing the number of transfer patients served, launching a swing bed model, and offering specialty services in smaller hospitals.

In this episode, she talks about the technology that supports their telehealth programs, including their D-Care Command Center. “I was introduced to D-Care and within five minutes, they were able to create a profile for us to identify potential candidates for remote monitoring as well as where those patients are at with their care,” said Alli.
Deaconess is committed to extending services across the broad area they serve so that people do not go without care.
