Information deemed reliable through
March 2o19 © Sutter Health
We hope you are as excited as we are to begin work at Van Ness
campus! This manual is designed to be your “go-to guide” to help
orient you to our new facility.
Retaining the “heart” of what we do
The opening of the new Van Ness campus is the culmination of
years of hard work, commitment and anticipation. It will continue
the legacy of being the neighborhood hospital in San Francisco
and retain the “heart” that has made our California and Pacific
campuses special for patients and staff alike.
Balancing safety, comfort and
sustainability
The new building balances the safety and technical needs of staff,
physicians, and volunteers with the comfort and safety of our
patients. The modernized campus is seismically safe and certified
by Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), a
globally recognized sustainability program.
The layout of the building employs a front of the house (onstage)
and back of the house (offstage) concept. Front of the house
refers to all areas that patients and visitors will see, and where
we are “onstage,” and helps create a positive environment for our
patients and visitors. Back of house includes staff-only hallways and
elevators. This design will help us put our best foot forward.
Van Ness campus will open on March nd, 2o19. We are so pleased
to be able to create the next generation in health care services for
San Francisco.
—Your CPMC Leadership and New Hospitals Transition Team
Welcome to the
Van Ness Campus

Sustainability
Sustainability
The campus is Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design
(LEED) certified, a globally recognized symbol of sustainability.
The building is constructed to lower greenhouse gas emissions by
reducing the use of energy and water.
New roof top gardens are designed to be an urban oasis which help
with water drainage. Approximately 36o,ooo gallons of storm water
will annually be diverted from the city’s water system. In addition,
about 5o,ooo gallons of rainwater will be diverted to help dissipate
heat from the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC)
system at the building’s rooftop cooling towers.
Bottle water refilling stations (page 35) and the sustainable waste
removal program (page 41) are other examples of ongoing sustain-
able processes.
Building Reminders
Help us create a positive environment for our patients and
visitors. Please remember that we are moving into a brand new
hospital that we want to keep as beautiful and tidy as the day we
move in.
Remember you are “onstage” in front of house
areas (areas that patients and visitors will see).
No moving furniture or equipment in the building.
No hanging things on the wall (art and
bulletin boards provided).
No fish or pets will be permitted, with the
exception of service animals (page 33).
Personal packages will no longer be accepted
at the campus. Materials Management
will not sign for them.
Ordering food for delivery—Staff are responsible
to come down to the 3rd Floor Security Desk at
Emergency Department to pick up food. Food delivery
will not be allowed to come to the care department.

Security Awareness
• Be aware of your surroundings.
• If you see something, say something.
• For emergency situations (other than Code Blue) dial 4-4444.
• Keep your personal property, especially purses,
briefcases and bags, locked and secure.
• Pay attention to person(s) who look suspi-
cious or look like they don’t belong.
• Make sure vendors have a vendor badge.
• Wear your hospital badge.
• Be alert when you are in areas or around
people that are unfamiliar to you.
For general security concerns or for an escort to your vehicle,
contact Security Dispatch at 415-6oo-o837.
Crash Carts
Crash carts are strategically located throughout the Van Ness
Hospital in the event of a medical emergency for patients,
visitors or staff.
Security
Security Desks are located on 2nd floor (Main Lobby) and 3rd floor
(Emergency Room). Security enhancements include:
• A metal detector at the ED entrance
• Panic alarms located in identified high-risk areas; when
activated, a silent alarm is sent to Security Dispatch
• Security stations located at key main entrances
including the ED, loading dock, and drive through
• Staff Duress buttons on Aeroscout RFID tags worn by staff
• HUGS Infant Security & Adult patient elopement
Door Alarms and Stairwell Access
The new hospital has public and staff only areas. In the event of a
fire, all persons in the building must be able to exit by the emer-
gency stairwells. Therefore, we cannot lock interior doors, but
we can alarm doors to notify Security when a person has entered
an authorized hospital staff only area. Signs reading “Authorized
Hospital Staff Only, Alarm Will Sound” and “Emergency Exit Only,
Alarms Will Sound” are posted on doors that alarm when entered.
To prevent the alarm from sounding, hold your employee badge
up to a card reader located near the door.
Stairwells are “exit only” to the public. In order to re-enter a floor
from the stairwell, staff must hold their employee ID badge to a
card reader located on the door.
On the Women’s and Children’s floor, the stairwell doors have a
sign which reads “KEEP PUSHING. THIS DOOR WILL OPEN IN 15
SECONDS. ALARM WILL SOUND”. Only specific authorized staff,
can use their employee ID badge to deactivate these alarms. These
doors are part of our infant security system. In case of fire, push on
door and it will open.

Emergency Management /
Emergency Operations Plan
Emergencies, disasters and other catastrophic events pose a signif-
icant threat to the ability of a health care organization to maintain
operational capability and provide care, treatment and services to
its community.
CPMC has implemented a comprehensive All-Hazards Emergency
Operations Plan to respond to the medical needs of the community
in the event of an emergency, disaster situation or mass casualty
incident.
The All-Hazards Emergency Operations Plan is an organiza-
tion-wide program that incorporates all services and sites of
care under the CPMC license. This plan applies to staff, licensed
independent practitioners, contract workers, volunteers and others
as appropriate and indicated throughout this document.
The All-Hazards Emergency Operations Plan complies with the
elements of the National Incident Management System (NIMS),
incorporates the Hospital Incident Management System (HICS),
and addresses the six critical areas mandated by Joint Commission
standards:
• Communications
• Patient clinical and
support activities
• Resources and assets
• Safety and security
• Staff responsibilities
• Utilities management
The full plan is located on the CPMC Intranet at
http://mysutter/bay/CPMC/Resources/Safety/Pages/
EmergencyManagement.aspx
Communications in a Disaster
Sutter Health affiliates use Everbridge Mass Notification System
to communicate to all staff simultaneously in an emergency.
Everbridge has been implemented to improve the efficiency and
effectiveness of communications. The system-wide notification
system enables CPMC staff to receive and respond to critical safety
and business impact information in a timely manner.
Everbridge allows CPMC to communicate with staff via multiple
contact paths including home phone, email, mobile phones and
other communication devices during an emergency event.
What to do when a notification is received:
Read (when received via email) or listen to
the message carefully for directions.
“Confirm the Message” when asked by clicking
the link provided in the email, or press 1 if
the message is received via phone.
Confirming the message lets CPMC know that you have received
the message.
How to update your personal contact information:
Check the Lawson e-Self Service site on the Intranet portal to
confirm that your personal contact information is correct. Having
accurate personal contact information is critical for Everbridge to
work effectively and staff to receive emergency
information. Everbridge pulls from Lawson and
if information is inaccurate you may not receive
emergency notifications.
Please direct questions regarding Everbridge to
the Safety Department at 415-6oo-462o or email
sforzok@sutterhealth.org.

Hospital Command Center
The hospital uses the Hospital Incident Command Structure
(HICS) to manage emergency events, and if the situation
warranted, the Emergency Operations Plan would be activated
via Code Triage.
If Code Triage is initiated, the Hospital Command Center (HCC)
will be activated; it is located on the 1st Floor in Conference Room
#11oB. If additional resources are needed to manage the event, the
Labor Pool will be activated; it is located in the hospital cafeteria.
Code Team
The Code Team will respond to all medical emer-
gencies in the main hospital and will respond
to non-patient emergencies. The Code Team is
multi-disciplinary, made up of ICU providers, nurs-
es, respiratory therapists, security and a Nursing
Supervisor.
Code Blue or Other Medical Emergency
If you witness a patient, visitor or staff member who is in cardiac
and/or respiratory distress, or having a medical emergency, imme-
diately seek medical assistance by calling for help—and by dialing
5-5555 from a hospital phone.
Patient care areas should also use the Code Blue alarm system or
alert the hospital operator by dialing 5-5555.
For other types of urgent medical situations (Rapid Response) and
non-medical emergencies (Code Red, Code Gray, etc.), dial 4-4444
from an in-house phone and provide the nature of the emergency,
and your name and location.
Code Gray
Initiated for any event with aggressive, hostile, combative or poten-
tially combative behavior from a patient, visitor or staff member,
without the display of weapons.
Response Procedures
At the first indication of a perceived Code Gray:
Dial the emergency number 4-4444.
Describe the incident to the operator,
including the specific location.
Security will determine when an “All Clear” will be announced.
Post Incident
Security will conduct a post investigation debriefing. You will be
interviewed to gather incident specific information.
Complete the Workplace Violence Incident Report and, if appli-
cable, an electronic Report of Injury (eROI), Patient Safety Report
(PSR) and Quality Risk Assessment.
Infant/Child Security
There is an Infant Security System installed in Women’s and Infant
Center (Labor & Delivery, Nursery) to protect our infants and
prevent infant abductions. Code Pink and Code Purple are used in
the event of a missing infant or child.

General Fire Safety
Never block access to pull stations, fire extinguishers and
medical gas value boxes. Corridors should be clear except
for crash carts, isolation carts or “in use equipment.” If
the fire alarm is activated, make sure corridors are clear.
During an actual fire or smoke event, do not use elevators.
Follow exit signs to the nearest, safest exit stairwell.
Do not open doors if they are hot to touch, or if you can see
smoke. If you become trapped in a room and cannot exit
safety, keep the door closed and seal off any cracks. Call
hospital operator at 4-4444 and report your exact location.
If a door feels cool to the touch, open it cautiously. Be
prepared to slam the door shut if the corridor is full
of smoke or if you feel heat when opening the door.
If the corridor is clear, proceed with evacuation.
If you are caught in smoke or heat, stay low until you
reach a safe area such as another smoke compartment.
Fire Safety Guidelines

MRI Suite Safety
For security and safety reasons, access to the MRI suite is limited
to MRI personnel and security and is controlled. The MRI spaces
are zoned to protect staff, patients and families. Zoning is noted
as follows:
Zone II: Unscreened MRI patients, personnel and visitors
Zone III: Screened MRI patients, personnel and visitors
Zone IV: Screened MRI patients, personnel and visitors under
constant supervision of trained MR personnel
Any metallic, electronic, magnetic or mechanical implants,
devices, or objects are hazardous in the MRI Suite and cannot be
allowed in the area. Follow and respect instructions from the MRI
technologist.
The MRI suite has a special designated EVS closet with non-me-
tallic supplies and equipment. Regardless, EVS staff should never
enter the MRI suite without supervision from an MRI technologist.
Finally, to ensure all zone protocol is followed, always check with
an MRI tech before entering the suite.
What to Do if You Get injured?
Employees are required to report all work related injuries and/or
illnesses to their supervisor or the on-duty supervisor immediately
and complete an Electronic Report of Injury Form (eROI) by the
end of shift in which the injury or illness occurred. The forms are
located on the CPMC intranet under Frequently Reviewed Forms—
Environment of Care.
Upon completion and submission of the form, an incident analysis
will be completed by the employee’s manager to determine what
caused the incident and actions needed to be taken to prevent the
incident from reoccurring.
Workplace Violence Reporting
Effective April 1, 2o17, employees working in inpatient and outpa-
tient settings and clinics on hospital licenses are required to report
workplace violence incidents into the Midas Workplace Violence
Incident Report.
Certain health care facilities as defined by the new Cal/OSHA
Workplace Violence Prevention Plan standards, Section 3342,
California Code of Regulations Title 8, adopted October 2o, 2o16,
were required to maintain a log of all incidents of workplace
violence by April 1, 2o17.
The purpose of the new standard is to protect
employees, physicians, volunteers and contracted
personnel from aggressive and violent behavior—
for example, physical and/or verbal assault, sexual
assault, threats, and violation of a restraining
order.
In addition, if an employee is injured in a work-
place violence incident, they must complete an
Electronic Report of Injury (eROI) Form AND a
Workplace Violence Incident Report.
If a patient is injured, the employee must go to the
Hospital Midas Tools Page and complete a patient
injury form.
Safety, Security, Human Resources, Risk
Management, and Operations Management will
coordinate a post-incident investigation.

Service Dogs
Service Dogs
Service dogs don’t require proof of certification or medical
documentation to enter public patient care areas. If you are unsure
if an animal is a service dog, you may ask the following:
1. Is the dog required because of a disability?
2. What work or tasks has the dog been trained to
perform?
No other questions about a person’s disability or the dog are
permitted.
Remember
• Always ask permission to approach the service dog.
• Address the person directly.
• Do not draw unnecessary attention to the
person with the service dog.
• Ask how to accommodate the dog during the medical appoint-
ment or hospital stay. If necessary, ask who is designated to care
for the dog during the medical procedure or hospital stay.
In an Emergency
If the patient can communicate, ask who they want to care for their
dog to determine how best to care for the patient and service dog.
If the patient is unable to communicate:
• Look for identifying information on the dog’s harness or
collar to determine if the dog came from a school or training
program. Contact the school or training program.
• If no information is available, contact family members or friends.
• Contact animal control after all options are exhausted.
Please contact the ADA Coordinator or Safety Officer at
415-6oo-462o with any questions or concerns.

Nurse Call System
The Nurse Call Rauland Responder 5 system
is an application that allows the patient to
alert staff from the bedside, among other
patient locations. Identified alerts will
integrate with other applications in order
to produce hospital-wide communications

generate a number of reports. The system
utilizes devices at the bedside and in the
patient room to accomplish three primary
functions:
• It serves as a code required system for
patient
safety and security.
• It provides a patient alert-communication
system (for hospital staff) that assists
patients and allows for increasingly
efficient hospital operations.
• It interacts with other systems to
provide access to patient enter-
tainment and education.

are provided for co-mingled recycling
(blue) and regular trash (black). In the staff
lounges and conference rooms there are
receptacles for co-mingled recycling (blue),
regular trash (black), and composting
(green).
Temperature Monitoring
The Van Ness Campus uses a combination
of two systems to monitor and alert if an
equipment temperature goes out of range—
the AeroScout system (in the refrigeration
units) and the MobileView system.
When a device’s temperature goes out
of range during department hours of
operation:
• A primary alert is sent to the
department through MobileView
• A secondary alert is sent
to Plant Operations.
When a device’s temperature goes out
of range when the department is closed,
primary and secondary alerts are sent to
Plant Operations.
