"Quality of patient care is central to our success. I believe that the Critical careTrends system will improve the overall quality of patient care and nurse satisfaction in the ICU. It will enable clinicians to have immediate access to complete and reliable vital sign data, which also becomes part of the permanent record for our patients," said Michelle Woodley RN, MSN, AVP Clinical Integration, St. Joseph Health System.
