SLA 3 earns Capacity Champions Cup

Congratulations to SLA 3 (Medicine) staff, who received Yale New Haven Hospital’s April Capacity Champions Cup award for meeting their discharge target the most days in the previous month. The award is part of Yale New Haven Health’s efforts to improve patient throughput by ensuring that patients who are clinically ready to leave the acute-care setting experience a safe and timely discharge. In addition to enhancing the quality and safety of care, efficient patient throughput helps ease overcrowding on inpatient units and in the emergency departments.
