We strive to go above and beyond for the patients that come into our hospital and we pride ourselves in the quality of the services that we provide.
About the Location:
We are located in the Chinatown portion of downtown Los Angeles, adjacent to Dodger Stadium. We are situated close to the Staples Center, Universal City, Hollywood Boulevard and the Disney Center as well as the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion. Our climate is extremely favorable and we have all the metropolitan area amenities and more.
About the Department:
Our MIS Department has a collegial environment that encourages employees to excel. We have the most current version of the MEDITECH Magic Platform version 5.61. We have a staff of 10 people which is small enough for all individuals to interact and exchange ideas freely. The CIO, Manager of MIS, and Manager of Clinical Informatics have worked at the hospital a number of years and ensure the department has the tools, information, and training they require to complete their jobs. We have recently acquired Array Software's Helpdesk Product and will soon implement MEDITECH's ITS, QM/RM, and E-MAR/BMV modules. We are starting to employ PMI Project Management Methodologies for all new projects.
