One of the values in Memorial Hermann Southwest Hospital's mission statement is, "We measure the outcomes of each effort and only sustain and expand those with demonstrable outcomes." What does this statement mean to you?

"I believe this is a great way to approach growth within any facility. It's easy to get caught up in trying several new things and then become overloaded. I think that measuring outcomes and focusing on the things that could bring the greatest benefit to the company and patients shows great insight for those who are trying to build something lasting."

"I can see where well-focused goals and concentrated areas of expansion could benefit any organization, especially concerning healthcare. I believe that measuring outcomes of specific areas of care and concentration and focusing on the growth and development of those areas allows for greater improvement, rather than being 'spread too thin' and not accomplishing desired goals."
