PIH Health Achieves Healthgrades 2021 Patient Safety Excellence Award™

May 12, 2021

WHITTIER, Calif., May 11, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — PIH Health Downey Hospital, PIH Health Good Samaritan Hospital, and PIH Health Whittier Hospital have been recognized as a Healthgrades 2021 Patient Safety Excellence Award™ recipient. This distinction places PIH Health among the top 5% of all short-term acute care hospitals reporting patient safety data as evaluated by Healthgrades, the leading marketplace connecting patients and providers.

“Patient safety is always our top priority,” says James R. West, PIH Health president and chief executive officer. “Working together to face the challenges the COVID-19 pandemic brought about this last year has bolstered our commitment to our patients and communities, and we have focused even more attention on safety within all of our facilities. We are honored to be recognized for our commitment to our patients’ safety and well-being and attribute this award to the unwavering dedication of all our employees, medical staff, and volunteers.”

From 2017 through 2019, there were 190,273 potentially preventable patient safety events among Medicare patients in U.S. hospitals.* And, if all hospitals, as a group, performed similarly to hospitals performing better than expected on each of 13 Patient Safety Indicators (PSIs) evaluated by Healthgrades, on average, 106,052 patient safety events could have been avoided.*

During this time frame, four patient safety indicators accounted for 72% of all patient safety events (collapsed lung, hip fracture due to an in-hospital fall, pressure or bed sores, and catheter-related bloodstream infections). Healthgrades found that patients treated in hospitals receiving the Healthgrades 2021 Patient Safety Excellence Award were, on average*:

50.3% less likely to experience a collapsed lung due to a procedure or surgery in or around the chest, than patients treated at non-recipient hospitals*
60.3% less likely to experience an in-hospital fall resulting in hip fracture, than patients treated at non-recipient hospitals*
66.5% less likely to experience pressure sores or bed sores acquired in the hospital, than patients treated at non-recipient hospitals*
65.4% less likely to experience catheter-related bloodstream infections acquired in the hospital, than patients treated at non- recipient hospitals*

“The importance of hospital quality is now at the forefront of consumers’ minds, especially as we continue to navigate COVID-19. We congratulate the recipients of the Healthgrades 2021 Patient Safety Excellence Award for their ongoing commitment to upholding the highest quality standards for their patients and communities,” said Brad Bowman MD, Healthgrades chief medical officer.

PIH Health participates in safety best practices across all of our hospitals and outpatient medical offices. Employees are regularly engaged in important discussions about the safety initiatives already in place in PIH Health facilities, and, together with leadership, continuously work to see where enhancements can be made to improve upon patient safety.

During the study period (2017 through 2019), Healthgrades 2021 Patient Safety Excellence Award recipient hospitals demonstrated excellent performance in patient safety within the Medicare population, as measured by objective outcomes—risk-adjusted patient safety indicator (PSI) rates—for 13 PSIs defined by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). A 14^th PSI is included in the evaluation – Foreign Objects Left in Body During a Surgery or Procedure – which is a “never” event and does not have an expected rate.

View Healthgrades hospital quality methodologies.
*Statistics are calculated from Healthgrades Patient Safety Ratings and Excellence Award methodology which is based primarily on AHRQ technical specifications (Version 2020.0.1) to MedPAR data for years 2017 through 2019 and represent three-year estimates for Medicare patients only.

Telemundo Leads Hispanic Upfront With Over 1,000 Hours Of Original Content Designed To Capture Today’s Latinos Across Every Screen

May 12, 2021

MIAMI, May 12, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises unveiled today its 2021-2022 programming lineup bolstering its position as the leading multiplatform content creator for today’s Latino. With over 1,000 hours of original scripted and unscripted content, world class sporting events and trusted news, Telemundo is shaping a new era in Hispanic media with culture-centric narratives that meaningfully engage marketers with the full spectrum of Latino audiences across every screen.

Next season’s lineup brings two original Super Series™ including the return of ratings powerhouse La Reina del Sur for its third season, and Malverde: “El Santo Patron” the network’s first-ever period drama Super Series™. Also premiering is Diario de un Gigoló, a riveting story about an unexpected and complicated love, an all-new dramedy, Parientes a la Fuerza, and the return of the iconic series Pasión de Gavilanes.

Telemundo will introduce two new reality shows, La Casa de los Famosos, a no holds barred look into a group of celebrities living together and Así se Baila, a grueling dance competition where celebrities and their loved ones put their relationships and dancing skills to test, in addition to the sixth season of the family hit Exatlón Estados Unidos, the number one family-friendly sports reality competition show on Hispanic media. On the sports side, Telemundo Deportes will air more than 300 hours of coverage of the 2021 Olympics from Tokyo this summer and the most extensive coverage ever of the CONCACAF FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022^TM Qualifiers.

With Latinos surpassing $1.7 trillion in purchasing power, every company in America should build strong relationships with this audience to grow their business today and into the future. Telemundo and Comcast NBCUniversal offer the only premier platforms to reach them at scale across the entire spectrum and capture this exponential growth,” said Beau Ferrari, Chairman of NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises. “As the leading producer of Spanish-language scripted content, we are uniquely positioned to deliver for our audience on every screen. This coming season we’re doubling down on our commitment and investments to super-serve Latinos with the best entertainment content, world class sports events and most trusted news they want and need, delivered on the devices they prefer.”

Powered by Telemundo, Comcast NBCUniversal reaches today 9 out of 10 US Hispanics every month – more than any other media company. This year, Telemundo has extended its leadership to every platform and device. On the broadcast side, among adults ages 18-49, Telemundo’s weekday prime time is up double digits, outperforming its closest competitor by nearly 40% more nights compared to the same time period last year. On Sunday primetime, Telemundo has been #1 for the majority of nights, and this past month, ranked as #1 Spanish-language broadcast network at 10 p.m. Telemundo’s digital properties are registering unprecedented growth with the Telemundo app delivering the highest number of viewers on record — and the highest engagement — among NBCUniversal properties and growing. Telemundo continues to be the #1 broadcast network on YouTube with short form video for the fourth consecutive year — doubling Univision’s subscribers — and across all social media in engagement, regardless of language.

“When you combine the power of Comcast and NBCUniversal with the deep connections and trust of Telemundo, we not only reach more Latinos than any other media company nationwide, but we also speak to these consumers with the authentic stories that move them. For our marketing partners, this means an opportunity to tap into a powerful, critical audience and move their business through the incredible impact of storytelling,” said Laura Molen, President, Advertising & Partnerships, NBCUniversal. “From primetime to Peacock, only NBCUniversal and Telemundo can help marketers meaningfully engage with the Hispanic consumers leading the cultural and technological revolutions of tomorrow.”

As Latinos expand their video consumption habits throughout digital properties, Telemundo continues to lead multiplatform content production with its recently launched Telemundo Streaming Studios, the first-ever studio in Hispanic media exclusively dedicated to serving the growing Latino streaming audiences in the US and around the world.  Building upon its decade-long success across streaming platforms with original titles such as El Señor de los Cielos, La Reina del Sur, El Recluso, No Te Puedes Esconder, Jugar con Fuego and, most recently, Dime Quien Soy, 100 Dias para Enamorarnos, Falsa Identidad and Jenni Rivera: Mariposa de Barrio, Telemundo is investing to expand its production capabilities to create original premium scripted content exclusively designed to fulfill the growing needs of direct-to-consumer platforms. Since 2011, Telemundo has been the undisputed leader in providing scripted Spanish-language content to direct-to-consumer services, delivering over 14,000 hours of original content to partners such as Netflix, HBO, Hulu and Xumo, including 3,000 hours on Peacock when it launched last year.

UPCOMING PROGRAMMING LINE-UP

SCRIPTED SERIES:

La Reina del Sur (The Queen of the South 3), Telemundo’s globally acclaimed Super Series™ returns with its highly anticipated third season. Four years have passed since U.S. authorities convicted Teresa Mendoza for the murders of three Drug Enforcement Agents. Living behind bars in a maximum-security prison, stripped of her freedom, she’s separated once again from her beloved daughter, Sofia. Devising a highly sophisticated escape plan, Teresa’s old friends Oleg and Jonathan daringly extract her from prison to take her to Mexico where she meets President Epifanio Vargas. In a world motivated by alliances and secret deals, Teresa agrees to embark on her most dangerous mission yet, one that takes her throughout Latin America with the fervent hope that she can end her fugitive’s life and reunite with Sofia at last.

Malverde: El Santo Patron (Malverde: The Patron Saint – working title), Telemundo Global Studios’ first-ever period drama, is a powerful new action series that brings to life the story of Jesús Juarez, a young boy from Sinaloa, Mexico who grows up to be a legendary figure, almost a religious icon revered by many. Set in 1870 and inspired by actual life events, Malverde tells the story of Jesús from his troubled childhood as an orphan to the advent of the Mexican Revolution, experiencing the torment of war, danger, and love, all while amassing unexpected power. Over time, Jesús becomes a heroic Robin Hood-type figure, admired by women across all social classes. Yet, Jesús remains tormented by his unexpected feelings for his childhood sweetheart, Isabel. As federal authorities see the danger in his rising power during the beginnings of the Mexican Revolution, it will take more than love and God to stave off those seeking to destroy the hero known to the faithful as The Patron Saint.

A Telemundo Global Studios production, Diario de un Gigoló (Diary of a Gigolo), is a provocative and riveting series about the life of Emanuel, a male escort living a hedonistic life of freedom and luxury. After surviving a childhood of violence and poverty, he forges a bond with a local boss that takes him under his wing and helps him become a much sought-after escort. Destiny arrives in the form of Julia, a woman he’s hired to romance and with whom he unexpectedly falls madly in love, leading him to question his life choices. Consumed by jealousy, Julia’s mother, who once hired Emanuel, threatens to tell her daughter the truth about him to crush their growing relationship. Blinded by his passion for Julia, Emanuel fails to see the dangers impacting their uncertain future together and his complicated life as a gigolo.

A new Telemundo Global Studios family-friendly dramedy, Parientes a la Fuerza (Family by Force), tells the story of George Cruz, a successful writer who feels his life is over after his wife, Leticia, leaves him. Destiny intervenes when George flies to Mexico where he accidentally meets Carmen Jurado, a young Mexican woman of modest means. They fall in love and quickly make plans for a future together, not knowing that mixing their families will not be as easy as falling in love. Once Carmen moves to his Beverly Hills mansion with her entire family, they begin to clash, turning the peaceful household into a war zone.

Pasión de Gavilanes II (Hidden Passion II), brings back the story of the Reyes brothers from one of Telemundo’s most iconic original productions. In the first season, seeking to avenge their sister’s death, the Reyes brothers infiltrate the Elizondo family’s farm by passing themselves off as workers. The intense rancor the brothers once felt soon dissipates as they fall in love with the Elizondo sisters. Now, 20 years later, the Reyes and Elizondos have united as one family, but their bonds are to be tested by new challenges. This new generation of Pasión de Gavilanes is fated to begin with another tragic crime that rocks the family to its core. The subsequent investigation of the mysterious death of a professor points to the sons of one of the couples as the possible culprits, triggering a dramatic series of events to prove their innocence.

Hercai, Amor y Venganza (Hercai, Love and Vengeance), the internationally acclaimed Turkish drama that captivated audiences worldwide, is set in the ancient town of Midyat in the historic Mardin Province of Turkey. Hercai: Love and Vengeance tells the story of Reyyan and Miran, whose impossible love is driven by revenge and betrayal. The plot unfolds as Miran carries out a nefarious plan to honor his parents’ death, an act inspired by his wrathful grandmother. Meanwhile, Reyyan’s desire of escaping the pressure of her grandfather unwittingly pushes her into Miran’s arms. Falling in love without knowing Miran’s true intentions, he discovers their shared passion is stronger than rivalry and hate. Committed to survive the dangerous obstacles ahead, including their own families, this star-crossed couple must stop at nothing to fulfill their romantic destiny together.

ALTERNATIVE ENTERTAINMENT:

La Casa de los Famosos (The Celebrity House – working title), Telemundo reimagines the popular reality format, featuring a group of celebrities living together under constant video surveillance, totally isolated from the outside world. It’s the good, the bad, and the ugly as these glittering contestants compete for weekly awards and one grand prize of $200,000. And, with an unobstructed view, audiences will get to know a different side of their favorite celebrities they may have not known in this dramatic, provocative, and highly addictive show.

Así Se Baila (Let’s Dance – working title), Telemundo’s bold remix on the popular dance competition genre, takes the stage with its singular beat. Featuring ten celebrity contestants who put their best feet forward, this high-drama dance show pairs them with a loved one in a unique test of dance skills and family relationships captured under bright lights. Each week, teams comprised of couples, siblings, best friends, and mother-and-son duos take center stage in a dancing challenge unlike any other to win immunity against elimination and remain in the competition for another round. With their talents and intimate relationships on display, a panel of expert judges decides which winning couple declares: así se baila! (That’s how you dance!).

Exatlón Estados Unidos, the number one family-friendly sports reality competition on Hispanic T.V. for four years in a row, returns to Telemundo for its sixth adrenaline-packed season featuring Hispanic contestants from across the country. In this new season, participants of the Famous Team and the Contenders Team tackle challenging new circuits and exhilarating nighttime obstacle courses expertly designed to test their combined physical and mental skills. Often grueling, the teams must endure extreme living conditions and absolute isolation from their daily lives, all in a fast and furious bid to win a grand prize of $1 million dollars and the coveted title of champion.

SPORTS:

Summer Olympics in Tokyo – With the eagerly anticipated 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games finally set to begin, Telemundo Deportes presents the most extensive Spanish-language coverage ever of a modern summer Olympics with over 300 hours of live competition and daily recaps. Telemundo and Universo will offer at least 12 hours of intense live sports coverage throughout the night and early morning schedules, and Telemundo will present a two-hour recap show highlighting the best stories of the day every day, Monday through Friday, beginning July 26.

Maria Altagracia Depeña’s new book El Poder Divino da Sabiduría, an insightful book on self-discovery and its benefits to the human psyche

May 12, 2021

http://es.pagepublishing.com/books/?book=el-poder-divino-da-sabiduria

NEW YORK, May 12, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The book El Poder Divino da Sabiduría was created by Maria Altagracia Depeña. Maria is an author who was born in the city of Bonao in the Dominican Republic. She now resides in New York City with her family. She completed her studies in human services at La Guardia Community College and Boricua College.

Depeña said this about her book: “Discovering oneself is a search on our way. When you can wake up each morning with the joy and light of opening your eyes and giving thanks for all that is around you, then you can feel a transformation of spirit and mind that will fill your being with peace and hope. By applying the recapitulation process in our lives, we can observe unwanted patterns and once we have already discerned it, we can make more conscious and acceptable decisions; In addition, we will repair recurring patterns and begin to unravel the mystery of life. Let us feel grateful and happy every day that passes and that everything we do for the benefit of others comes out of our heart with the intention and objective that it comes to bear fruit and germinates in physical and spiritual satisfaction.

By becoming judges of our actions, we will discover an easier and more just path for our life, thus allowing ourselves to overflow our interior with satisfaction and joy. Discovering oneself is a universal search that when achieved produces the state of being that acquires strength and experience, sensitivity and intensity in living. The way to life is for those who are eager to find themselves before dying. Therefore, they dedicate themselves to finding each other, struggling with effort and wisdom to give a special meaning to everything in the passage of life. We applaud all those human beings who have dedicated themselves to seek and lodge in divine power to obtain wisdom and liberation for the well-being of their lives.”

Home-Baked Bread Made Simple! Now Available Online And At Retail

May 11, 2021

SOUTHLAKE, Texas, May 11, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Now anyone can make home-baked bread for themselves or to share with those they love. Wild About Bread™ has created a NEW bread mix kit, simplifying the bread making process while resulting in delicious crusty artisan bread.

Each Wild About Bread™ kit provides a unique mixing and proofing container called the PrepPal™, 3 pre-measured bread mixes, and 3 yeast packets. To prepare a loaf, add warm water and one yeast packet into your PrepPal™ and stir. Next, add one bag of bread mix, snap the lid shut, and shake vigorously for 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides and lid of your PrepPal™ with a spatula, set aside to proof in a warm place until dough doubles in size. Once ready open the PrepPal™, scrape dough onto a prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes at 425⁰F. Cool, slice, and enjoy.

“What can compare to the aroma of bread baking in your oven, and the deliciousness of home-baked bread?” says Chris Harlander, General Manager for Wild About Bread™. “It’s a wonderful, simple bread mix kit that will make an inexperienced baker feel like they created a masterpiece.”

Your PrepPal™ will become your best friend when making home-baked bread. There is little mess and only one container to clean up. The PrepPal™ is reusable, and dishwasher and microwave safe. For convenience, dough can be stored after proofing in the refrigerator for up to three days.

Adventurous bakers appreciate the recipes available on their website for dinner rolls, baguettes, focaccia, pizza crust, and more. There are how-to videos, baking tips, and serving suggestions also available on their website and social media.

“Wild About Bread™ kits were showcased on a home shopping network, QVC, March 31, 2021, and sold out in 8 minutes,” says Harlander. You can see the Wild About Bread™ QVC segment on the QVC website and YouTube.

Wild About Bread™ is available for purchase on their website and is launching into retail in North Carolina and Texas in May.

The Open Visibility Network welcomes Everstream Analytics – adds risk analytics to the shipping industry visibility data sharing network

May 11, 2021

Tive Real Time Transportation Visibility Platform

BOSTON and SAN MARCOS, Calif., May 11, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Leading in-transit visibility provider Tive® and Everstream Analytics ®, a global supply chain risk analytics company, today announced a partnership to provide the Open Visibility Network (OVN) with the power of predictive analytics. By integrating data and insights beyond shipment location and condition, the new partnership will provide mutual customers with insights to increase resiliency and agility for a better end-customer experience.

Demand across multimodal shipping continues to skyrocket and logistics professionals are demanding more actionable insights to actively manage their customer’s growing expectations. With Everstream Analytics, the OVN now adds deep and broad data and insights on risks such as weather, sub-tier supplier risks, port strikes, political unrest, the global pandemic and more. Everstream’s risk assessment and predictive analytics allow customers to turn risk into a competitive advantage. The addition of Everstream Analytics extends access to new levels of in-transit visibility to ensure that shipments arrive on time and in full (OTIF).

“The Open Visibility Network is growing with incredible velocity and it has started to benefit customers all over the globe, and the return on investment for the participants has been immediate for all the partners,” said Tive CEO and Founder Krenar Komoni. “Tive trackers are being deployed on thousands of shipments worldwide every single day, and all the parties involved benefit by understanding the exact location and condition of their loads, we are excited to see Everstream Analytics join this powerful partnership of top visibility solutions providers to help our mutual customers further improve the resilience and agility of their supply chains.”

This newest addition to the OVN combines Everstream’s insights with those of other industry leaders’ data, including Tive, project44, FourKites, and TransVoyant to deliver immediate value to the global supply chain. Everstream’s predictive models process over 20 billion data points daily to predict risk to on-time and in-full arrival. In combination, mutual customers will have deep visibility into all loads and improve their end-customer experience.

“Companies that were resilient and outperformed their peers during the pandemic were also those that were the most agile,” said David Shillingford, CEO of Everstream Analytics, the newest company to actively participate in the building of the Open Visibility Network. “But agility is relative. It’s about being faster to react than you otherwise could. That’s critical when there is a natural disaster, the threat of a major port blockage, borders are closed due to a pandemic, or any time when capacity is strained; now more than ever. Agility starts with knowing what might happen or what has happened as quickly as possible. That’s the future of visibility. We are excited to be joining these leading, innovative companies in the development of the OVN which represents the future of supply chain visibility.”
