Thibodaux Regional Rehabilitation Center Earns highest level of accreditation that can be given to an organization

I couldn't find any stroke standards at the CARF website - http://www.carf.org/home/
so with nothing public, this is completely fucking worthless. Because if this is all just doing processes with no measurement of results, then useless.

Notice how useless this is; measuring 'care' rather than results.

Three measurements will tell me if the stroke hospital is possibly not completely incompetent; DO YOU MEASURE ANYTHING?  I would start cleaning the hospital by firing the board of directors, you can't let incompetency continue for years at a time. 

Business 101: If you don't measure it it is not important, so obviously stroke results are not important. 

“What's measured, improves.” So said management legend and author Peter F. Drucker 

There is no quality here if you don't measure the right things.

1. tPA full recovery? Better than 12%?
2. 30 day deaths? Better than competitors?

3. rehab full recovery? Better than 10%?

 

You'll want to know results so call that hospital president(Whoever that is) RESULTS are; tPA efficacy, 30 day deaths, 100% recovery. Because there is no point in going to that hospital if they are not willing to publish results.
