LAMC Seeks Applicants For Patient Representative Position On Hospital Board Of Trustees

Los Alamos Medical Center is seeking individuals who have received care at the hospital within the last year to apply for a three-year term on the hospital’s Board of Trustees as Patient Representative. This individual will play a key role as the patient “voice” advocate for the Board. The Board is a collection of medical providers, community members and hospital administrators that meets in the evening every month at the hospital.

Among the responsibilities for the Patient Representative:

• Help identify what our hospital is doing well and also help pinpoint areas for improvement.
• Give insights about our hospital’s strengths and areas where changes may be needed.
• Provide feedback on practices and policies that patients and families find meaningful and useful in helping them be active partners in their care.
• Offer timely feedback and a fuller picture of the care experience than standard patient and family satisfaction surveys provide.

“We want to be the best we can be for our patients and community, and this position goes a long way to help us achieve that goal. We look forward to this individual helping our organization with our continuous improvement of patient and family satisfaction,” said Tracie Stratton, CEO of Los Alamos Medical Center.

Interested individuals are asked to please submit a document outlining their interest and why they think they would be a great candidate to Executive Assistant Rachel Dunaway in person or by email at Rachel.Dunaway@lpnt.net.
