Allen Parish Community Healthcare is one of 13 Louisiana healthcare facilities to receive the 2024 Funds for Safety grant sponsored by LHA Trust Funds. The annual grant program helps healthcare organizations fund their unique patient safety improvement initiatives.
Allen Parish Community Healthcare’s Funds For Safety project will develop a comprehensive digital rounding system — using technology to conduct ordered routine check-ins with patients, assess their well-being, and address any concerns every 15 minutes — tailored specifically to behavioral health settings. The goal is to leverage digital technologies to streamline processes, improve accuracy, and ensure timely interventions, revolutionizing how safety checks are conducted within behavioral health units.
LHA Trust Funds created the Funds for Safety grant program in 2012 to help fund its members’ initiatives to improve patient safety. Since its creation, the grant program has awarded over $3.6 million to fund more than 100 unique projects for facilities in Louisiana.
