Patient Satisfaction
St.Vincent Dunn Hospital employees the Professional Research Consultant’s, Inc. company to assist in the collection of patient satisfaction information. PRC’s award-wining website is the culmination of technological and research innovation, developed by PRC in order for us to fulfill the goal of presenting accurate, valid research results quickly and efficiently to healthcare professionals so that they can make a positive impact on healthcare in their organizations. Through the Internet, the clients are able to access their data in real time, as interviews take place. Because PRCEasyView.com is updated immediately following each day’s interviews, hospitals are able to know how they are performing now, rather than simply how they performed three months ago. At PRC, we know that waiting even one month for research findings can often be too much of a delay for effectively developing, administering, and monitoring policies and market perceptions.
St.Vincent Dunn Hospital would like our community to share in the findings of PRC’s calls to our patients.
