PatientSafe gathered a focus group of nurses to better understand how clinical communication platforms can better support bedside care, especially under the stress of COVID. The group discussed the benefits of new virtual team-based care workflows including nurse-to-nurse consults, video-based education and training, and scaling specialty care roles across units and facilities. #clinicalcommunication #covid19 https://hubs.ly/H0sXvD90

Now more than ever, health systems need, and should demand, a flexible, enterprise-wide communication and collaboration platform that can rapidly adapt to the changing care delivery landscape. KLAS’ new Clinical Communication Platforms 2020 Advanced User Insights Report offers guidance on a strategic approach to enterprise communications. The PatientTouch platform was cited for our unique bi-directional EMR integration capability, advanced nursing workflows, and patient-centered care team communications. #clinicalcommunication https://hubs.ly/H0sfNfW0

Our outcomes-first deployment approach is based on Studer Group’s Straight A Leadership Pillars of Excellence, which allows us to align to the health system’s strategic initiatives for trackable success in quality and safety, efficiency, satisfaction and engagement, financial and operational, and innovation improvements. These pillars serve as the foundation for our repeatable, reliable deployment process. #clinicalcommunication #healthIT https://hubs.ly/H0rVClD0

If your health system is pursuing an Epic-first mobile strategy, build your program on a clearly defined set of use cases for role-based communication, physician adoption, patient safety, and assignment process. Your clinical communication technology should complement Epic’s mobile tools, providing a seamless end user experience for the care team that drives adoption, increases efficiency and satisfaction. Learn how to design your implementation to deliver a successful, sustainable mobile communication experience for the full care team. #clinicalcommunication https://hubs.ly/H0rHbhl0

Clinical communication and collaboration (CC&C) platform vendors must stretch and expand to address three key areas of need that will persist in the new normal: 1) Dynamic structural and capacity management, 2) Dynamic workflow and handoff management, and 3) The transition to enterprise-wide virtual care. Technology must be nimble and flexible to support the evolving care delivery system. By following an outcomes-first approach, health systems can minimize risk of low adoptio...n or project failure. PatientSafe is collaborating with our health system partners to address the new realities of care delivery, support rapid recapture of patient volume, and enable more efficient sustainable operations. By following an outcomes-first approach, health systems can load-level and prioritize prior to implementation, minimizing risk of low adoption or project failure. #clinicalcommunication #telehealth #digitalhealth https://hubs.ly/H0rzr_x0 See more

Nurse call optimization, and the ability to respond via remote, mobile devices is an important consideration during the financial and care delivery disruption caused by COVID-19. Nurse call projects should be included in the shift to an enterprise approach across all IT systems, EMR interoperability, and remote patient engagement technologies. Shared governance models between Nursing Informatics and IT yield the greatest chance of success. https://hubs.ly/H0r6V_z0
