Colleton Medical Center

Learning is fun at Colleton Medical Center! This week members of our care team participated in pediatric code readiness training to ensure our team remains vigilant and ready to respond to pediatric emergencies. The class addressed many care needs such as recognizing distress in a pediatric patient, heart rhythms, medical equipment, medication administration, individual roles when responding to a code, and much more.

Please join us in congratulating Brittani Evans, RN, for receiving the “Stop the Line” award. Stop-the-line recognition is awarded to team members for pausing the current process and taking steps to verify the accuracy of the situation at hand and the safety of the patient before proceeding. Brittani identified a concern with a patient’s discharge medication list and stopped the discharge process until the issue could be clarified. Thank you, Brittani, for your attention to detail and steadfast commitment to patient safety.

Happy Radiological Technology (Rad Tech) Week! Rad Tech Week is celebrated annually the week of November 8 to commemorate the discovery of the x-ray by Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen on November 8, 1895. Just as Roentgen discovered the x-ray 129 years ago, today, our care team relies on the expertise of our imaging team to paint the picture often necessary to accurately diagnose our patients. Thank you for “radiating” excellence in all that you do.
