OR Excellence Awards – The Best of the Best

This year’s standout performers in surgery show how hardworking and passionate professionals set the standard for safe, cost-effective, satisfying and welcoming care. The profiles of the winning facilities recognize staff-pleasing tweaks to workplace ergonomics, post-discharge care instructions that stick with patients and what it takes to go infection-free for three years running. They highlight wide-ranging initiatives to promote inclusivity and respect across a health system, a surgeon’s outlawing of opioids, a hospital’s mission to pay less for surgical supplies in order to pay the savings forward and team bonding built on blue wrap recycling. We’re honored to share their stories with you and celebrate their accomplishments in advancing the field of outpatient surgery.
