“We are committed to building a world class patient experience organization to improve hospital outcomes,” said Bart Kaericher, President and CEO of Aramark Healthcare+. “This partnership gives us the added expertise, resources and structure to support the development of our front-line staff as part of the patient care team.”
HPSG will develop coaching and training to build skills for patient interaction that gives Aramark Healthcare+ managers and front-line associates the expertise to support nursing units and help improve patient care.
The new HPSG and Aramark Healthcare+ partnership will be centralizing and formalizing the existing network of experience professionals integrated across all regions in the U.S. These teams will be scaled to deliver a foundational framework of practices designed to elevate the relationships with caregivers, patients, and the healthcare team within the Aramark Healthcare+ partnerships nationwide.
Together, the group will create a new “Leadership Development Institute” to teach techniques that effectively connect caregivers and patients. For example, Aramark Healthcare+ managers will learn to conduct guided rounding conversations with their front-line teams and will receive similar training and tools to have rounding discussions with nurses and patients. All training will include an official certification process.
“We are grateful to be part of the Aramark Healthcare+ team,” said Quint Studer, co-founder of Healthcare Plus Solutions Group. “We are excited to bring new capabilities to their front-line teams of food, facility services and transport associates so that they can have a greater impact on those that receive care and those hospital partners they work with that provide care.”
Studer is an expert on business and healthcare leadership and is known for being one of the first to connect patient care to customer service, putting patient experience at the forefront. As former president of Baptist Hospital in Pensacola, Studer led the organization to the top one percent of hospitals in the country in patient and employee satisfaction. He was recognized by Inc. Magazine as a Master of Business, making him the only health care leader to win this award. The author of numerous best-selling healthcare and leadership books, he recently published The Calling: Why Healthcare Is So Special, to help health care professionals maintain and manage healthy emotional bank accounts.
Dan Collard, co- founder of Healthcare Plus Solutions Group, is a seasoned healthcare executive with more than 28 years of healthcare industry experience including operations, consulting, and technology start-ups.
