The Importance of Prioritizing the Health of All, Including Healthcare Workers, to Improve Patient Care

Efficient care delivery and management in healthcare systems is an ongoing challenge. Health organizations and their leaders face numerous roadblocks, including budget and medical reimbursement issues, staff shortages, ever-changing regulations and policies, and evolving patient demands. To achieve better outcomes in care services, health leaders need added support to build patient-friendly health systems that enhance patient and provider experiences.

Impactivo Consulting, a prominent health and social services consulting firm, has been providing much-needed support to health leaders for over a decade. It offers data-based integrated solutions for strategic planning, financial sustainability, and program management to help leaders make strategic business decisions that uplift communities and patient groups. Impactivo adopts a health equity approach and designs patient-centric healthcare systems that drive lasting positive social impact.

Impactivo differentiates itself by focusing on leadership development, a deep knowledge of patient needs and a data driven approach to health system financing. The consulting firm leverages its extensive experience to assist leaders in reshaping their organizational cultures and becoming more people-centered. Impactivo also promotes a culture of positive health, impact and happiness, and ensures overall well-being for health care professionals and staff.

To deliver effective culture transformation strategies for health, Impactivo performs community health needs assessments for organizations using its proprietary technology tools. These tools collect data on the broader health and social determinants that contribute to the overall quality of life for patients. Based on the collected data, it develops tailored solutions that involve training or interventions and custom strategies.

Impactivo designs and implements pilot projects to determine ideal quality improvement initiatives that suit the distinct needs of each health center and community. It then scales those projects using hybrid management systems and guides health leaders in achieving their vision of building systems that achieve optimal health.

Impactivo’s methods have enabled a sustained 31 percent improvement in diabetes control over five years in Puerto Rico, and the firm played a primary role in transforming the state healthcare environment by developing the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services funded Puerto Rico State Health Innovation Plan (PR-SHIP).

In addition to its consulting services, Impactivo offers a leadership program called Lead in Health: ImpACTivista Implementation Map, designed to enhance efficiency and effectiveness in healthcare delivery from the individual to the organization. This bilingual program, offered in Spanish and English, is based on the latest leadership development research and is proven to be effective. Currently available to organizations committed to health for all, Impactivo plans to make the virtual education program accessible to individual leaders in the near future.

Adding to its consulting services and leadership program, Impactivo Consulting has also been awarded a subaward from the Columbia University Mailman School of Public health to manage the work of HRSA Region 2 Public Health Training Center in Puerto Rico. As the only Center that focuses on a completely Hispanic and Spanish-speaking population, Impactivo has trained over 4,000 health professionals to provide coordinated and effective public health and primary care services to under resourced communities in Puerto Rico. This is another example of Impactivo’s dedication to supporting health leaders and building patient-centric health care systems that drive lasting positive social impact.

In conclusion, Impactivo Consulting is well-positioned as the ideal support system for leaders who seek to revolutionize the health industry, especially for under resourced communities with poor health outcomes. Its focus on data-based integrated solutions for strategic planning, financial sustainability, and program management that uplift communities and patient groups, combined with its deep knowledge of patient needs and leadership development in the healthcare domain, has made a significant positive impact on health care systems. By prioritizing the health of all, including health care workers, Impactivo Consulting is spearheading the transformation of systems for good.
