- Nevins, a West Peabody resident, has worked as a neonatal nurse in the Special Care Nursery at NSMC for 36 years. For her, compassionate care means being there for all of her patients, whatever their walk of life, without judgment. Regardless of which area I work in, be it loss, neonatal nursing or postpartum care, I feel that compassion is what I bring to each encounter," Nevins says. The finalists were selected by a review committee based on how well they embody the characteristics of compassionate care, which include effective communication and emotional support, mutual trust and respect, involving patients and families in healthcare decisions, and tating patients as people, not just illnesses. He established the Schwartz Center just days before his death to ensure that all patients receive compassionate care.

- As an organization, we have created a number of new opportunities for our patients and families to be involved in the care we provide,” says Martha Page, R.N., Director of Patient Safety. By way of example, she cites the patient-centered rounding that currently takes place in the intensive care units and cardiac surgery unit; the new IPACE care model on Davenport 5 that centers around patient and family involvement; and the inclusion of patients on several process improvement teams. Another forum for members of the North Shore community to have a voice in the care delivery and safety programs at NSMC is the Patient Family Advisory Council PFAC. Among PFAC’s upcoming plans are a series of focus groups with residents of a local retirement community to gain an additional perspective on different aspects of care at NSMC.

- NSMC’s Birthplace is closely affiliated with the maternal-fetal medicine specialists at Massachusetts General Hospital MGH who specialize in caring for women who deliver early, such as Lopez. NSMC neonatologist Ihor Bilyk, M.D., stabilized the baby in the NSMC Special Care Nursery and within a couple of hours Matthew and mom were transferred to MGH so that Matthew could receive more advanced care and his mom could be with him. Matthew spent 99 days at the MGH Neonatal Intensive Care Unit NICU, where he was on a ventilator, received intense nutritional, occupational therapy and feeding team support, and required surgery for a congenital heart defect and hernia repair. After treatment at MGH, Matthew was transferred back to NSMC for continued care and observation prior to being sent home. Our neonatologists practice at both NSMC and MGH which allows for continuity of care, and provides the parents with some familiarity and comfort,” said NSMC Chief of Newborn Medicine Sanjay Aurora, M.D., M.P.H. “By transferring the patient back to the NSMC Special Care Nursery prior to going home we can more easily coordinate with LCHC physicians for a seamless discharge.”
