The EMA Story
Starting with just one hospital in 1971, EMA has grown to a multi-hospital group. A key element of EMA’s success is our ability to partner effectively with hospital administrations, staying keenly attuned to their priorities and concerns. EMA’s Management Team meets with hospital administrators frequently to obtain candid and timely feedback on our performance as well as to strategize for the future.
EMA’s success also results from our ability to attract and retain a stable Team of superbly trained clinical providers. We are able to gain the confidence and respect of hospital Medical Staffs, which recognize our ability to practice quality medicine in a caring manner. We place particular emphasis on responding promptly to any issue or concern of the Medical Staff.
EMA ensures that a strong rapport between our clinicians and the nursing and ancillary staffs at each hospital is developed and maintained. We have been very successful in creating a strong “esprit de corps” in our Emergency Departments through on-site and off-site meetings, educational programs, and occasional social events.
