Clinical Transformation
- Improve consistency in quality performance on key clinical indicators
- Enhance the patient experience
- Increase value and decrease risk in Genesis as noted in PGVA
- Current
- Evidence-based clinical practice is not embedded in many of the order sets.
- The workflow pattern has not changed much. For example even though a Stat Order is now instantly processed, it does not mean that the nurse sees it any earlier to do anything about it.
- We still have MO specific formularies. This means we have different ways of approaching even the highest risk drugs.
- Future
- We will embed evidence into workflow, order sets, rules, etc.
- Workflow will be optimized by embedding evidence—enhancing the overall clinical experience and care outcomes.
- Communication and efficiency improvements between all care providers and patients.
- Medication cycle and formulary will reflect evidence based use.
