Starting March 1, 2024, PureView Health Center is taking a significant step to enhance further the quality of care we provide to our community. Recognizing the importance of continuous professional development and operational improvements, we have dedicated time each week specifically for these purposes. Therefore, all PureView locations, including our in-house pharmacies, will be closed to the public every Wednesday from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m.
This initiative is part of our ongoing commitment to meet and exceed the healthcare needs of those we serve. By setting aside this hour each week, we ensure that our staff from every department—medical, dental, behavioral health, administrative, and pharmacy—can participate in various training programs and collaborative projects to enhance service delivery.
Examples of Training and Operational Enhancements:
Departmental Meetings: These sessions will focus on department-specific strategies and improvements. For example, our pharmacy team might explore new technologies to streamline prescription management while our medical staff could receive updates on the latest patient care protocols.
All-Staff Meetings: These gatherings will bring together employees from all departments, fostering a unified approach to patient care. Topics might include enhancing patient communication, implementing new health information systems, or strategies for improving patient flow and reducing wait times.
Professional Development Workshops: These workshops will offer our staff opportunities to advance their skills in patient care, technology use in healthcare, and leadership. For instance, nurses could participate in seminars on the latest nursing practices, while administrative staff might explore advancements in healthcare policy and its implications for our operations.
Collaborative Projects: Time will also be allocated for teams to work on collaborative projects aimed at operational improvements. This could involve cross-departmental efforts to enhance patient experience, from the moment they walk into our facilities to post-visit follow-ups.
This closure applies to all services and departments without exception, ensuring that every team member can fully engage in these vital activities without impacting patient care. We understand that this may require some adjustment for you, and we appreciate your support as we strive to improve our services.
We encourage you to plan for those who may have appointments or need pharmacy services around this time. Our staff will be available to assist with scheduling and any necessary adjustments.

Our commitment to continuous improvement is critical to exceptional care at PureView Health Center. We are excited about the benefits this dedicated training and collaboration time will bring to our patients and the community we serve.
