Keeping standards high.

By William "Bill" Nicholson, M.D.

Continually evaluating our health care programs and performance; keeping our technology and equipment up to date.

When I was elected to this board two years ago, I told you that I would continue to strive for improved patient care, increase bedside nursing time and emergency services. I also promised to continue to support and improve existing health education programs while developing new ones. I have done that.

Monitoring these services and making continual improvements still remains a high priority. I believe that a service as important as health care can never be "good enough." I have made sure that Washington Hospital continues to have the best available technology for the care of our patients. We can never stand still when it comes to providing the best health care to our growing community.
