Carol Stream, ILL, September 15, 2011 – HTS celebrated its third consecutive year of acclaim as a technology enabler at the Constructech Vision Awards ceremony last evening. HTS took the stage four times as Kaiser Permanente, Rady Children’s Hospital, Mercy Medical Center, and Capparelli/KHS&S Contractors were each honored for incorporating innovative technology (HTS FreightTrain® software) to improve their business and achieve industry greatness.

This year’s gold award (HTS’s third in a row) came in the Corporate Owner: Healthcare category with Kaiser Permanente. Kaiser has been utilizing HTS FreightTrain since 2005, recently having completed the Kaiser Permanente Ontario Vineyard Medical Center (KPOVMC) in California. Used for construction management, commissioning, and transition planning, FreightTrain helped the KPOVMC team communicate, collaborate, measure, and manage their project, closing out with an overall inspection success rate near 90%, one of the highest measured by FreightTrain.

HTS continued to sweep the Corporate Owner: Healthcare category as Rady Children’s Hospital and Mercy Medical
Center were presented with silver awards. While Rady and Kaiser utilized FreightTrain for construction management all three owner-winners consulted HTS for transition planning with great success, illustrating the importance of technology throughout the life-cycle of a construction project.

Capping off the evening, Capparelli/KHS&S Contractors took home a silver award for the Specialty Contractor: Drywall category. Capparelli leveraged FreightTrain to monitor work and reached an inspection success rate of 97%, the benchmark for the industry. According to Paul Thomas, HTS Chief Executive Officer, “I am extremely honored by these awards, and by the opportunity to collaborate with our fellow award-winners. HTS strives to meet the technology needs of an industry that is rapidly evolving; these awards are a wonderful confirmation that FreightTrain is on track as the premier industry solution.”

Los Angeles, CA, July 17, 2011 – HTS celebrated the culmination of more than two years of close collaboration as Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) moved into a brand new patient care pavilion on Sunday. Through careful planning, dedication, and attention to detail, CHLA opened the Marion & John E. Anderson Pavilion to patients and families with enormous success.

Collaboration between HTS and CHLA began in 2009 with the launch of HTS’ FreightTrain® Construction Management
Software. The construction project team used tablet PCs to manage the resolution of more than 38,000 issues throughout the 46,000 square foot facility, making sure that each room was built exactly as it was planned – a critical element in a hospital designed specifically to treat children. The new seven-story facility is family-care focused, providing private rooms equipped with a pullout bed, workspace, WiFi, and webcam, all of which enable the close contact needed between parent and child.

With construction nearly complete, HTS worked closely with the hospital team to begin the immense task of creating a transition plan for CHLA to move into and operate within a new facility that will treat more than 93,000 children each year. HTS and CHLA developed and tested the critical tasks, procedures, operational workflows, and patient move sequences necessary for a successful move. The ultimate test was a series of three ‘Day in the Life’ events, where HTS led up to 500 executives, staff, volunteers, and guests through all day simulations of patient moves and new facility operations. With some of the most critical and complex patient cases in the world, it is no wonder that CHLA chose to actively engage so many in these vital exercises.

“The success of a new hospital relies heavily on the ability of its staff to operate efficiently from day one,” said Becky Sales, HTS lead project manager. “Throughout this project we saw participation that demonstrates not only CHLA’s commitment to preparedness, but also the increasing importance hospitals place on the HTS transition plan.”

Move day was incredibly successful as 197 patients, many of which rely on life-saving equipment, were transported to the new state of the art facility in just over eight hours without issue. HTS helped man the command center, deploying hospital staff to receive and ensure that the patients were ferried according to schedule. Both HTS and families alike proudly observed as CHLA and their patients moved into the future of children’s health.

“CHLA prides itself on providing the highest quality care to our patients,” said Mary Dee Hacker, vice president for patient care services and chief nursing officer. “HTS approached this project with the same high standard, and delivered excellence at every stage.”

The Marion & John E. Anderson Pavilion at CHLA is now open. It has 317 beds, a state-of-the-art trauma unit, and arguably the best-equipped pediatric emergency department in the western US.

Twin Falls, ID, May 21, 2011 – HTS celebrated another major triumph on Saturday, executing their design to transition patients and staff into the state-of-the-art St. Luke’s Magic Valley Medical Center. Together with St. Luke’s personnel, HTS managed a move that saw six ambulances transport 68 patients in various stages of criticality across town in just under eight hours, an average of only seven minutes per patient.

For nearly two years, HTS intimately collaborated with the entire hospital team, from housekeepers to nurses to executives, ensuring that the facility and staff were prepared for the move. HTS tailored a comprehensive transition plan based on the resources of both new and old facilities. With over 400 participants, HTS also conducted their largest ‘Day in the Life’ orientation and training to date, identifying more than 400 issues that needed to be resolved prior to the move.

“HTS comes to the table with and delivers enormous value,” said Mike Reno, St. Luke’s CEO. “Engaging HTS will be the best money that we’ve spent on this project to date.”

On the move day, HTS set up three command and communication centers in different locations to track patients and
critical function delivery using a cloud-based tracking system. Over 40 people logged in throughout the course of the day to manage patient queues, delays, and arrivals. As they were wheeled into their new room, patients were greeted by St. Luke’s executives with blankets and warm welcoming words.

According to Kelly Guzman, executive director of HTS Transition Planning, “It was a huge success. We carefully moved the critical patients first, built momentum, and finished right on schedule with a fully functional facility. In fact, the first baby was born at the new hospital before the day was complete.”

In the planning for some time, the decision to open a Northern California office came out of a desire to work closer with several of HTS’s largest clients headquartered in the northern part of the state. President of HTS, Bill Clemenson, will be heading up the Emeryville office and bringing with him the managing team behind FreightTrain. One of the key members of that team is Michael Harrison who has recently joined HTS as its Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “I’m very excited to be joining HTS at such a pivotal time in the company’s expansion. The decision to open an office in Northern California just shows the commitment HTS has to providing its customers with world-class customer service.”

Emeryville, Calif. is prime location as HTS has a commissioning project underway on the North Coast in Eureka; FreightTrain operators are busy at multiple sites in the East Bay, Napa, and the aforementioned Eureka; and transition planning is overseeing a move in Redwood City on the Peninsula. Kaiser Permanente’s corporate offices are in nearby Oakland, CA and with HTS involved in many Kaiser projects the Emeryville location was a perfect fit.

To celebrate the grand opening of their new office in Northern California, HTS will be hosting an open house in the near future. Details of the event will be posted on their website at consulthts.com.

Hanford, county seat of Kings County, Calif., welcomed its newest hospital in 45 years, Adventist Medical Center – Hanford. That Sunday morning, ten ambulances shuttled 78 patients, working alongside 1,183 employees, volunteers and students, to complete a coordinated move down to the planned last minute. “Moving a hospital takes a tremendous amount of planning, excellent teamwork, proactive communication, attention to detail, and practice,” commented Becky Sales, RN, HTS project manager at Hanford.

Two days later, planning and attention to detail were definitely on hand for San Francisco’s Laguna Honda Hospital and Rehabilitation Center, one of the largest skilled nursing facilities in the country. Over two days, 756 residents, some with dementia and other complex diagnoses, moved into their brand new, 780-bed facility with modern amenities. “The move was flawless. The level of detail with the flowcharts and process proved very valuable in our licensing and helped make the move go smoothly,” said Larry Funk, Associate Administrator at Laguna Honda, in praise of HTS.

Practice and more practice proved to be incredibly beneficial for Palmdale Regional Medical Center (PRMC). The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) surveyed the facility earlier that week and awarded PRMC their license to operate with no citations or issues. Three, full-house, mock-operations exercises, known as “Day in the Life,” incorporated a full-court press of hospital staff, physicians, volunteers and EMS personnel to ensure the new environment was ready for Day 1. The exercises included ambulance and air transport using the hospital’s heliport to test the mettle of the staff. It worked! Robert Trautman, CEO of Palmdale Regional said the move was “perfect, not one hiccup.”

Finally, at Denver’s St. Joseph’s Exempla Hospital teamwork proved its worth. Finishing up the Women’s Services move at Exempla Lutheran in nearby Wheat Ridge, Exempla requested HTS’ assistance and support with the transition planning for their new Neuro-Ortho Surgery Tower at St. Joseph’s Hospital. HTS came forth with a hands-on approach and successfully coordinated “Day in the Life” and Move Planning efforts. “It was reassuring that HTS has a clinical background, and that gave us confidence,” said Judith Walker of St. Joseph’s Exempla.

All in all, 2010 was a good year for HTS where the Transition Planning Team successfully licensed and moved eight hospitals. This is remarkable and still more amazing in that half of those moves came in the last month alone. As a prosperous 2011 begins, HTS looks forward to another good year of helping hospitals make their transitions unquestionable successes.
