Our Services

Safety is at the heart of our services: patient safety, staff safety, and organizational safety. The foundation of safety is perfectly consistent quality of care, or Total Quality Management, also known as High Reliability. If your organization aspires to be a High-Reliability Organization (HRO) on the journey to zero harm, you have found the right partner in PI Consulting.

We believe that the framework for quality is accreditation – mastering accreditation lays the groundwork for mastering quality. We are leading experts in accreditation, quality, and safety.

Accreditation

We are leading experts in all aspects of Accreditation and offer comprehensive services customized to your unique situation. We have significant experience on both sides of the Accreditation process. Our team has surveyed over 500 hospitals as Joint Commission surveyors and team leaders, and we have also established and managed highly effective Accreditation programs at major hospitals. Our exceptional expertise is based on this extensive experience.

Organizations that need full-spectrum accreditation assistance, including program development, survey preparation, on-site and post-survey support, and fractional or interim leadership for their accreditation or patient safety programs turn to us.

Pre-Survey Support

We provide full Accreditation program development, mock surveys, focused assessments, and preparation training.

Onsite Support during Survey

Ensure a fair and valid survey by assisting with the command center, facilitating Special Issue Resolutions, and clarifying out of deficiencies in real-time.

Post-Survey Support

We assist with plans of correction as the result of a CMS, state, or other regulatory survey, including Immediate Jeopardy (IJ), Immediate Threat to Health and Safety (ITL or ITHS), Preliminary Denial of Accreditation (PDA), or any other adverse event.

Patient Safety

Safety is our ultimate objective: patient safety, staff safety, and organizational safety; not just improved safety, but the path to zero harm.

We offer a unique Organizational Safety Assessment that provides a robust assessment of your hospital’s current overall state of safety. We analyze incident reports, do root cause analysis, and review work culture and other foundational structures, providing vulnerable, transparent data. Real change comes from understanding this comprehensive safety baseline — it’s the starting point for developing a comprehensive plan to close all of the safety gaps and, ultimately, improve your CMS Quality Star rating and increase your reimbursement.

Whether you want to improve an individual program or establish a holistic framework for Patient Safety, we provide practical, sustainable solutions.

Executive Coaching and Leadership Training

Leadership is the secret sauce of organizational success – organizational success and leadership effectiveness are directly and positively correlated. There is no substitute for effective leadership, yet most executives in leadership roles operate far below their full leadership potential. Our executive coaching and leadership training are practical, impactful, and provide real-world results that will significantly increase the leadership effectiveness of your organization
