Pacífica Salud Hospital Punta Pacífica (HPP) sought our hospital consulting services to elevate its stroke care and expand its pediatric emergency care, strengthening its ability in these areas to offer higher health care quality supported by the right clinical operations infrastructure and protocols. After collaborating with our stroke and emergency medicine experts, HPP was able to address both critical needs.
