Advocate Trinity Hospital Work Values

Daily Duties at Advocate Trinity Hospital:

I coordinate the Outpatient Diabetes Wellness Center. Our center is accredited through the American Diabetes Association under an umbrella with two other facilities. I maintain the quality assurance project while conducting outpatient diabetes education and training. I also see inpatients as a consult and have taken on the task of educating the entire nursing staff on diabetes "basics" and on glucose monitoring so they can provide this type of information to patients and families upon discharge, and by giving the client a glucose meter with education, we have helped decrease the frequency of re-admissions. I am marketing our services to physicians and identified that none of our providers are doing professional continuous glucose monitoring. There is a strong need for this in the service area we have and I convinced the hospital to purchase 2 CGM (continuous glucose monitors) so that we can have patients utilize this at home for a fee and not only make money for the hospital but also arrive at better and more cost efficient medication therapies for patients. Implementation of the Chronic Disease Center at Advocate Trinity by seeing diabetes and congestive heart patients on an ongoing and as needed basis to prevent hospital emergency room visits and hospital re-admissions. Responsible with inpatients and outpatients for: Assessing and advising diabetes/CHF patients on medication administration, home glucose and blood pressure monitoring and recording of the same, diet and exercise and long term complications of said disease. Develop an Inpatient hospital diabetes education and discharge program. Collect identified measures for ADA Recognition Program Certification. Collaboration with hospital physicians for patient referrals and feedback. Identify, plan and implement diabetes education for the hospital staff. Develop community based programs on diabetes

What they like about Advocate Trinity Hospital:

Working in an organization that is technologically advanced, creative, and innovative is critical in your assessment of hiring companies. Less important to you are stability of the organization, the length of time an organization has been in business, and the business' plans for the future. You prefer a fast-moving company that will take risks to achieve its goals and objectives. The length of time the company has been in business is irrelevant. Maintaining status quo is unnecessary. You thrive on change, uncertainty and the upside of potential business risks, especially those associated with innovation. Stability for the long haul is not nearly as important as is working in an atmosphere that is charged with a sense of urgency and constant change.
