Pre-Admission Testing Pre-Admission Testing (PAT) is your first step to a stress-free hospital experience. This small effort will not only put you at ease about your upcoming procedure, it will also help avoid delays on the day of your admission. During your PAT appointment, a Nurse will perform a physical evaluation, obtain your medical history and note any allergies. They will also answer any questions you may have and provide you with information about your procedure. Any laboratory work and imaging reports are completed or obtained from another physician in advance of your scheduled admission. Click to learn more

Safety St. Bernards promotes the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations’ National Patient Safety Goals for 2003:

  • Improve the accuracy of patient identification.
  • Improve the effectiveness of communication among caregivers.
  • Improve the safety of using high-alert medications.
  • Eliminate wrong-site, wrong-patient and wrong-procedure surgery.
  • Improve the safety of using infusion pumps.
  • Improve the effectiveness of clinical alarm systems.

St. Bernards adopted the SPEAK UP initiative, also from the Joint Commission, to promote active participation by our patients, their family or advocate in safety awareness. Components are:

  • Speak up if you don’t understand.
  • Pay attention to the care you are receiving.
  • Educate yourself about your diagnosis and treatment.
  • Ask another individual to be your advocate.
  • Know what medications you take and why you take them.
  • Use a hospital approved by an organization such as JCAHO.
  • Participate in all decisions about your treatment.
