At Cohesive, our management style is hands-on and focuses on transparency with the hospital board and the communities we serve. We don’t just look at numbers and statistics on paper. Our healthcare experts enjoy being “on-foot” in our partner hospitals, getting to know the people who make up the teams we manage, the communities we serve, and their healthcare needs and priorities. This hands-on approach extends to any clinics, long-term care facilities, or other healthcare entities included in our management agreement.
We work daily in guiding hospital management, monitoring hospital performance, providing training and education for all teams, and establishing policies, procedures, guidelines, and directives for the most efficient management of the hospital and any other facilities. Our services to our hospitals fall into two categories—Administrative and Regulatory and Program Services.
