The Future
The Future The Surgical Research & Training Institute of Nevada (SRTIN) is a world-class organization dedicated to enhancing the ability of surgeons to improve patient's lives through innovative clinical care, leading research, technologically advanced physician training, and public education. SRTIN will:
- Provide premier patient care that incorporates the latest technology and recognizes that people lead busy and complex lives, and need a flexible, stress-free and family-friendly source for addressing all their health related needs
- Develop and increase the use of advanced surgical procedures, through collaboration with medical device manufacturers in research and testing of new products and training of physicians in surgical techniques and medical equipment, in each case embracing visionary technology and the most modern procedures
- Educate physicians, patients, industry and the world about minimally invasive surgical approaches curing and healing patients
To achieve this mission, SRTIN will recruit nationally recognized physicians to collaborate on research and clinical studies aimed at creating a better understanding of innovative surgical approaches and providing better treatment options. It will also employ innovative educational methods, including interactive Internet-based information, guidance and coaching that includes a consumer-friendly website and interactive e-mail, to provide knowledge about disease states, wellness and self-care, treatment options, comfort and encouragement. Most importantly, SRTIN will be holistic addressing physical, emotional and social concerns related to patient's health.
SRTIN will take the form of a dynamic state of the art building totaling 30,000-square feet, located at LV-61, a mixed-use development of 61 acres in downtown Las Vegas, Nevada. LV-61 is a public-private project joining the City of Las Vegas with The Related Companies. The building will be both iconic and integrated into a cohesive planned urban neighborhood that joins the new city hall and performing arts theater at its center with a variety of multi-use buildings, including an office and hotel complex and a professional sports stadium. SRTIN will be part of a 6-acre medical campus that promises synergistic medical, health and educational services to lead Las Vegas's evolution from a travel and entertainment Mecca into a cosmopolitan environment for the region and the world.
SRTIN will capitalize on Las Vegas's reputation as an international destination and the most rapidly growing city in the United States. Physicians from all over the world will come to SRTIN to learn the latest techniques in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) and engage in the development and testing of new techniques and medical devices. Patients will initially come from the local community. However, as SRTIN's reputation is established, patients will come from around the region and country to receive the most advanced clinical care and outpatient surgery; explore therapeutic massages and complementary care (including Asian medicine and homeopathic remedies); shop for fitness products and medically-sound skin care products; and know that their family members are embraced in an environment that encourages education and interaction to address ongoing health challenges. It will be practical, but welcoming, comforting and convenient. Patients' needs, including making appointments and scheduling treatments, will be managed by a concierge service. Their children can accompany them, and enjoy a positive environment in the comfort of an on-site day care center. The environment will eliminate annoyances and foster barrier-free training, treatment and education, while destroying myths and mysteries.
