We had a huge backlog of cases that needed to abstracted and entered into the registry and the KJTC team took the challenge and provided quality work in a timely manner.
Sandra C.
We cannot thank her enough for the wealth of information she shared.
Before Kathy Cookman came onsite to do an assessment, our Trauma Program was floundering without solid direction and understanding of trauma data management and performance improvement processes. We cannot thank her enough for the wealth of information she shared, the time and effort put forward to help us get on the right track, and numerous hours spent helping us prepare for the verification process.
Richard L.
We were especially encouraged that leadership of this company.
When seeking help with data validation and a review of our data collection process, we quickly learned the positive reputation and decades of experience the KJ Trauma Consulting team brings to the table. We were especially encouraged that leadership of this company encourages and requires continual education and trauma certification of their staff. We continue to utilize their services on an ongoing basis as an additional 1-FTE and rely on their expertise to validate the work of our Trauma Registry staff.
