Prime Objectives 1. Fast Patients will be seen by the doctor within twenty minutes of arrival. 2. Friendly Every patient will feel that someone at NMC cares about them. 3. Over-Communicate We will describe the patient's condition in terms they can understand. 4. Provide Tools NMC will provide the patient with the tools to make them better. Our Mission Nason Medical Center will provide quality, emergency and urgent care services to the Charleston area in a timely, cost effective, and compassionate way. It is our mission to provide the highest level of health care by utilizing medical experience and technology equivalent to what one would find in an emergency department. Nason Medical Center physicians are board certified and residency trained in emergency medicine. We will utilize laboratory and imaging equipment to allow the physicians to treat higher acuity problems. The imaging services will include computed tomography, ultrasound and traditional radiology. We plan to compliment the emergency department by providing health care to patients who may be too acutely ill for a primary care office, but not critical enough to warrant an emergency department visit. Our extended schedule will allow us to provide services after hours as well as on weekends and holidays. The staff at Nason Medical Center will deliver health care with sincerity, empathy, and proficiency. This will be accomplished through the development of a philosophy in which all aspects of patient care are taken seriously. Beyond providing accurate, definitive and diagnostic capability, Nason Medical Center will focus on four additional objectives. First, we will take care of our patients in a timely fashion. Second, we will describe the patients’ conditions in words which they can understand. Third, we will provide the patients with the tools and education to make them better once they have arrived home. Lastly, every patient that leaves Nason Medical Center will know that someone has cared about them and their well-being. |
