Emergency Department Statistics

Through their dedicated partnership with St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center, St. Joseph’s Westgate Medical Center and Green Valley Hospital, EMpower Emergency Physicians have significantly improved the level of personalized care given to patients.

Personalized care includes core metrics and quality indicators such as “door to doc time”, the length of stay in the emergency department and admission rates.

Here are just a few of the impressive statistics provided by St. Joseph’s Hospital that demonstrate results achieved from teaming with EMpower Emergency Physicians:

  • Faster “Door to Doc” time
    • Over 90% of patients were seen by emergency staff within 30 minutes of arrival in the Emergency Room
  • Decreased length of stay in the Emergency Department
    • The average length of stay from extract to discharge is under 3 hours
  • Left Without Being Seen Rate
    • Less then 2%
  • Door to Discharge rate of less then 150 minutes in 40% of patients
