Improve services offered by the Rapid Response Team (RRT) by decreasing the response time
and increasing the effectiveness of interventions in emergency conditions. The priority during
the first year will be to continue practicing full-scale RRT training drills, purchasing new
monitoring devices, and introducing an emergency response GPS tracker. These expected
outcomes are; faster response time by 20%, success rates in interventions by 15% as well as staff
training and preparedness.
Long-Term Goal (5+ Years)
Prevent the occurrence of any HAIs by practicing strict infection control measures, utilizing
monitoring tools, and promoting staff awareness on HAIs. The strategic goal includes expanding
public awareness activities regarding hand washing, improving environmental sanitation
measures, implementing innovative infection control measures, and forming an infection control
advisory committee. The expected benefits include a constant zero HAI rate, recognition of the
institution in infection control, enhanced patient safety, and increased patient satisfaction.
