DEAR NEIGHBORS,
An old adage teaches that there’s always room for improvement. We in the healthcare
industry have found this to be true countless times, especially over the past two decades.
But in fiscal year 2001, the familiar refrain of “improvement” took on a new, more compelling significance.
For 2001, our industry adopted new standards of quality and patient safety, took new steps and dreamed
big dreams. All of these inner workings are helping us achieve higher levels of care, even in times when
shrinking reimbursements from Medicaid, Medicare and managed care companies challenge us to make
ends meet.
Financial issues weren’t the only challenge of 2001. In the past year, our industry has also faced other
hurdles — an ongoing worker shortage, nationwide concerns over medical errors, and the puzzle of
enhancing accessibility of medical records to caregivers while safeguarding patient privacy.
The shortage of healthcare workers is a serious problem for hospitals all across the country. Here at
Gwinnett Health System, we’ve redoubled our recruitment and retention efforts to attract and keep
talented caregivers.
To address concerns about quality and safety, new standards of patient safety were adopted by the Joint
Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) and are now required of hospitals
seeking accreditation.
Concerns about patient safety peaked after publication of a 1999 Institute of Medicine report titled
“To Err Is Human,” resulting in specific improvement initiatives being implemented industry-wide. In March
of 2001, the Institute of Medicine weighed in again with a follow-up report.“Crossing the Quality Chasm:
A New Health System for the 21st Century” outlines areas for improvement that are expected to
increase quality of care across the board.
1
Against this backdrop, leaders from a number of Fortune 500
companies formed the Leapfrog Group to mobilize employer
purchasing power and initiate breakthrough improvements in
healthcare safety and value.
What does all this mean to Gwinnett Health System, your community healthcare system? At the very least, we have confirmation
that our Mission,Vision and Corporate Values, which we adopted
over a decade ago, have guided us effectively to a position of
strength for the industry-wide changes to come. Still, we have our
work cut out for us.
FRANKLIN M. RINKER
With the cornerstones of quality and safety in place, we will continue to grow and change to best meet
your healthcare needs.
Please read on to learn how we’ve prepared ourselves for this new era of healthcare, about the steps
we’ve already taken and the measures we’ve planned to ensure that the care we offer at our 21st
century healthcare system is both safe and of high quality.
Sincerely,
Franklin M. Rinker

Quality and Safety – the Cornerstones
of 21st Century Healthcare
The Institute of Medicine’s “Crossing the Quality Chasm” report contains many recommendations for achieving consistently higher quality care in our national healthcare system.
The good news for our community is that Gwinnett Health System had a big head start on
building a 21st Century healthcare system. Back in the early 1990s, we started working on
standardized protocols of care, which we call clinical pathways, for the most common conditions.
Today, we have pathways for a much wider range of conditions to extend our consistency of
care across most diagnoses.
From the beginning, our goal has been to strengthen our organization for more profoundly
important changes – redesigning the way we deliver care to our patients. We put our newly
designed processes into place in 1999 and continue to refine them as we find new and better
ways to provide care.
There’s still much to do in our quest to be a true health system of the 21st Century. We gave
ourselves a head start with our change initiative and our new care delivery processes. In 2001,
we continued to grow, build and change by making some exciting improvements – and some
cutting edge plans for the future – at the PROMINA level and here at home in Gwinnett.
PROMINA-Wide Improvements
For Patient Safety and Error Reduction
PROMINA was one of the first health systems in the country to launch a joint patient safety
initiative with members of The Leapfrog Group. Under this agreement, Gwinnett Health System
and its PROMINA partners instituted six new patient safety measures adopted from federal
error-prevention guidelines.
The PROMINA Quality and Performance Institute was established to evaluate, organize and integrate areas that have an impact on quality and performance at all PROMINA partner hospitals.
Using the purchasing power of the PROMINA partnership, in 2001 Gwinnett Health System
contracted to purchase a Computerized Physician Order Entry (CPOE) system. Capabilities of the
system include:
Transmission of medication orders directly to the pharmacy.
Resource information on dosing, allergy and drug interactions.
Warnings for duplicate orders.
To begin building corporate cultures based on patient safety, a
group of physicians, medical directors, performance improvement
specialists and risk and quality control managers from all
PROMINA facilities participated in a Patient Safety Summit in
2001. Hosted by PROMINA, the event focused on how small,
manageable adjustments or modifications to care processes can
make a positive impact on patient safety and how to apply rapid
cycle change to improve patient safety.

In 2001, we continued to pave the GHS road
to continual quality improvement in a number of ways.
All Roads Lead to Quality – Progress on the Home Front
Quality has been a key focus at Gwinnett Health System since the early 1990s, when we
initiated a Continual Quality Improvement (CQI) program. CQI ultimately evolved into a primary
emphasis on our change process and is now part of our corporate culture.
Our Quality Council, a voluntary group of hospital and medical staff members, serves as a
conduit for physician input on quality improvement issues or suggestions. In addition, our
Physician/Hospital Alignment Program has produced a number of initiatives that will reduce the
variation in care, improve the quality of patient outcomes and lower costs.
In 2001, we continued to pave the GHS road to continual quality improvement in a number of
ways. Here’s a sampling of our accomplishments in 2001:
Gwinnett Health System Pharmacy staff participated in a six-month Voluntary
Hospitals of America (VHA) initiative to reduce medication errors and increase
patient safety.
To improve accessibility of medical records to our clinical staff while protecting
patient confidentiality, we implemented a new electronic information system that
eliminates the wait time for paper records when patients move from one care area
to another.
In response to a new Joint Commission on
Accreditation of Healthcare Organization
(JCAHO) standard, we officially made pain the
fifth vital sign – after blood pressure, temperature,
pulse and respiration – and instituted an aggressive pain management program.

Growth Leads to Expanded Services and Facilities
In April 2001, on its 10th anniversary, we completed a major expansion of the Gwinnett
Women’s Pavilion that allowed us to open our 10-bed High Risk Pregnancy Unit, a new service
for moms-to-be who must spend weeks in the hospital to ensure delivery of healthy babies.
The Georgia Division of Health Planning gave its approval for a facility redesign for Joan Glancy
Memorial Hospital in Duluth.
GHS filed a Certificate-of-Need application with the State to establish an outpatient center on 17
acres adjacent to the Mall of Georgia.
To make more space available for clinical services at Gwinnett Medical Center,
we began construction on a new Support Services Addition in March 2001.
During 2001, GHS services, programs and departments
received recognition for excellence and quality of service.
Quality? Here’s Evidence It’s Alive and Well at GHS
During 2001, GHS had more than its share of services, programs and departments that received
recognition for excellence and quality of service. Among them are:
Gwinnett Extended Care Center, which, in a national survey, was the number
one facility in the nation for the lowest rate of infections originating in hospitals
(of facilities participating in the survey).
The Kids’ Clinic, which was second in the state in child immunizations, out of 860
physician offices statewide.
Glancy Rehabilitation Center, which earned another three-year accreditation from the
national Rehabilitation Accreditation Committee.
The Gwinnett Medical Center Emergency Department, which surpassed the benchmark
in a National Registry of Myocardial Infarctions Study involving 25 percent of
U.S. hospitals.
GHS Diabetes Education Services, which received recognition from
the American Diabetes Association for Outpatient Diabetes
Education Programs.
The GHS Cardiac and Pulmonary Wellness and Reconditioning
Programs, which were certified by the American Association of
Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation.
The GHS Laboratory, which passed the College of Pathologists
inspection without a single deficiency.

Located in a community with only two percent unemployment,
we must be very creative in our efforts to attract qualified caregivers.
Coping with a Workforce Shortage
There are many factors at play in the nationwide shortage of nurses, but two most clearly
illustrate the situation. First, enrollment of nursing students in entry-level BA programs has
fallen for six consecutive years. At the same time, the average age of nurses now working is
approximately 45 years – and rising. As more nurses move closer to retirement, there are fewer
and fewer young people choosing medical careers and filling in the ranks.
Gwinnett Health System, located in a community with only two percent unemployment, must
be very creative in its efforts to attract qualified caregivers. In 2001, our Human Resources
Department stepped up recruitment and retention efforts, developed some long-range
strategies and began some innovative programs to attract new and experienced clinical
workers to our organization:
Our Internship program clinically prepares new nurse graduates for the acute care
hospital setting through classroom and hands-on clinical training.
9
Our Externship program provides clinical instruction to nursing students in the summer
between their junior and senior years.Those who participate in this program will have
enough clinical experience to reduce their internship time by one half.
For licensed RNs who have been out of practice for three or more years, we offer a
Nurse Re-Entry program, which gives participants the training they need to update
and refresh their clinical skills in exchange for a two-year commitment to Gwinnett
Health System.
To support new or returning nurses or staff members, we offer Preceptorship and Peer
Mentor programs.
To build interest in medical careers in area high school students, Gwinnett Health
System has sponsored a Medical Explorers Post for the last 15 years. We also offer a
summer Volunteen program for teens that gives them a firsthand look at the many job
possibilities in the healthcare field.
Internally, we kicked off an Associate Referral Award program to
encourage our associates to earn a monetary reward for successfully recruiting for us. We also implemented an Incentive program
for clinical associates who agree to transfer to understaffed areas.
To make continuing education more affordable for our associates,
GHS offers a Tuition Reimbursement program.

Community Outreach Adds Value to Quality
Where there is quality, there should also be value. One of the ways Gwinnett Health System adds
value to its programs is through service to the community, which, not coincidentally, is our fifth and
final Corporate Value.
Along with our commitment to provide medical care to everyone regardless of economic status,
we strive to go the second mile by providing free or low-cost health screenings, educational
opportunities and services to the community that so faithfully supports us. Here are some highlights
of a wide range of health-related programs we offer to the community:
The Gwinnett Hospital System Foundation sponsors several events every year to raise funds
for programs designed to improve the health of our community. In 2001, the Foundation
kicked off a three-year, $2 million campaign to make screening and diagnostic mammography
services more accessible and to expand services for breast cancer patients.
Our Parish Nurse Program extends the reach of health education, support groups and
referrals into 10 local congregations.
The Miles Mason, Jr. Community Clinic, the OB/GYN Clinic and the Kids’ Clinic provide free or
low-cost care to the growing number of under-served and/or uninsured families, moms-tobe and children in our community.
Our Care-a-Van travels all over Gwinnett and surrounding areas to provide low-cost
screening mammograms to community residents.
Through our Let’s Talk family communication initiative and a National Safety Council
Defensive Driving program, we respond to the specific needs of teens and families.
We reach out to community residents age 50 and over through our free Healthy Seniors
program. Members have access to the program’s health screenings, social events, quarterly
newsletter and health and wellness information.
On the Horizon
The coming months will be busy ones. We’ll be working hard to customize and implement our
Computerized Physician Order Entry (CPOE) system, which will help us achieve new levels of quality
care and patient safety. Hand-in-hand with that will be our concerted effort to balance the demands
of the privacy regulations under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996
(HIPAA) with our need to make patient information more accessible to caregivers.
We will continue to seek new strategies for error prevention and innovative ways to improve the
quality and safety of our programs and services. We will press forward in our effort to standardize
care delivery processes to enhance consistency and continuity of care.
To accommodate our growing community and our expanding services, we will continue to build and
renovate our facilities with patient safety, comfort and convenience as top priorities.
To ensure that the care you receive at our facilities is safe and of the highest quality possible, we will
constantly support and build our team of dedicated, qualified caregivers and support staff and
provide them with the tools and technologies they need to achieve excellence in their work.
Strategic plans for the future – immediate and long-range – give us the edge in an environment where
sudden shifts and turns are commonplace.
We look forward to serving you and continuing our tradition of excellence in the 21st Century!
