Pulmonary & Cardiac Rehabilitation Center

The

Case ManagementCare coordination is an important part of every patient’s hospitalization. Case Management is the process in which skilled registered nurses, known as case managers, work with social workers and utilization nurses to assist patients and caregivers through the healing process to discharge. Case managers make sure that tests, procedures and activities deemed critical to patients are performed as efficiently as possible. Case managers also help patients and families set up effective discharge plans. Utilization review nurses keep in touch with insurance companies to maximize insurance benefits for patients. Social workers help with complicated social or discharge patient needs. They help make the transition to leave the hospital a smooth process. Case Management emphasizes a team approach to quality patient care. Your doctor coordinates your care along with your case manager, your utilization review specialist, social worker and other members of our professional healthcare team, such as your unit nurse, therapists, dietitians and technicians.

Hospice of St. Mary’s Hospice is a philosophy of caring for those facing a life-threatening illness. The hospice philosophy is that the patient’s and family’s goals for care and comfort are paramount. The object is to treat the whole person and not just the disease. Hospice is an active treatment option that focuses on holistic patient/family-centered care that addresses the physical, emotional, spiritual and practical needs of the patient. The interdisciplinary team of healthcare professionals works with the patient and family to design and implement a plan of care that is unique to the patient’s needs. Depending on the patient/family goals, many treatment modalities can be initiated, such as physical or occupational therapy; dietary counseling; oxygen; medications; Reiki; massage; music and pet therapy; and durable medical equipment. The Hospice bereavement team continues to care for families for 13 months following the death of their loved one. Bereavement care focuses on helping family members understand and move forward in the grief process through groups, classes, counseling, personal contact and special events such as the Memorial Service and Camp Sunrise for children. Bereavement services are offered to anyone in our community who has suffered a loss.

Hospice House of St. Mary’sAt times, individuals with terminal illnesses need care that cannot be provided in their own homes. The Hospice House often cares for patients who live alone, patients who have a caregiver unable to continue to care for them, or if there is intense pain or symptom management needs.

Medical Staff Officers 2013-2014 The ideal doctor is one you can trust with the sensitive and personal details of your health. You need to communicate openly with your doctor and receive clear, thorough information in return. You can choose your doctor from a variety of specialties, depending on your health plan. Some require your primary care physician to be an internist or family practitioner. All plans vary, so be sure to check. For instance, if you’re a woman, you might be able to choose an obstetrician/gynecologist (OB/GYN) who specializes in childbirth and diseases of the female organs. If you have children, they may need a pediatrician, whose patients range from newborns to teenagers. Or, you may prefer one doctor who can treat the whole family. A general practitioner or family practitioner, whose training involves a multi-year residency, will be responsible for your entire family’s health needs and will refer you to specialists as necessary. No matter which doctor you choose, there are some things you can do to help ensure that the relationship is a good one.

Be Honest.

Your physician can’t give you the

proper care without accurate

information. Your health is personal,

so it’s important to find someone

with whom you can be open and

honest.

Ask Questions.

Medical treatment can often be

complicated, but you still have the

right to know about your health

situation and to have your questions

answered until you fully understand

what is involved.

Stephen Michaels, MDVice President,Medical Affairs

Dr. Michaels joined the MedStar St. Mary’s Hospital administrative

team in January 2011 as Vice President, Medical Affairs - a new

position to the hospital and its administrative structure. Dr. Michaels

brings a great deal of experience directly related to the management

of medical affairs, physician recruitment and retention, and the

expansion and delivery of healthcare services to the community.

Dr. Michaels comes to MedStar St. Mary’s with a record of successful

collaboration in team building as a medical staff president,

initiating and facilitating improvements in hospital core measures,

performance improvement and safety initiatives, and revising

credentialing criteria, among others. His background includes

leadership of administrative, regulatory and review committees,

as well as community advisory panels on health care. He practiced

orthopaedic and spinal surgery in Montgomery and Prince Georges

Counties for many years and was the managing partner for his

successful practice.

His strong commitment to the recruitment and retention of highly

skilled, expertly trained physicians and surgeons in order to

deliver continued expansion of hospital services to the community

is a priority for Dr. Michaels, and he is an active participant in

this process, working with MedStar Health to enhance efforts to

provide Southern Maryland with specialists in fields that are under-

represented.

Collaboration with MedStar Health has already addressed some of

the under-represented specialty areas by having visiting physicians at

MedStar St. Mary’s. However, as our community grows and we want

to provide the most advanced technologies and techniques, we still

need additional physicians to establish “home practices” here. By

utilizing the resources of MedStar St. Mary’s and the MedStar Health

system, Dr. Michaels is fully engaged in multiple arenas to benefit the

needs of the community and advocate for the continued delivery of

quality health care in Southern Maryland.
