"Staff present" includes any hospital staff present at the time of the complaint or who can quickly be at the patient's location (i.e. nursing, administration, nursing supervisors, patient advocates, etc.) to resolve the patient's complaint.La Paz Regional Hospital Board, Administration, Medical Staff and Hospital staff are all committed to actively seeking, listening, and responding to the needs, preferences, concerns, and grievances of our patients and their families.
