ECG management consultants. (2007). The Strategic Imperative of Adapting the Hospital’s Management Structure. Insight, 1-6. http://www.healthleadersmedia.com/content/86219.pdf
a)
The author points out that many hospitals are struggling with how to execute strategic plans effectively in their organizational structure. These institutions lack efficient decision-making processes, accountability for the performance of key strategies and the recognition of the importance of hospital strategies to propel them to new business. The key challenge in provider-based organizations is their inability to focus their strategies on the provision of high-quality patient care services. Hospitals should stop focusing on performance-driven traditional strategies and instead align their strategies to focus on a service line.
To ensure that such procedures are executed efficiently, it is important that their organizational structures are informed by the care service strategy. The organizational structure should ensure that the strategy is encompassed in their strategic plan, organizational control structure, management responsibilities and physician leadership. In today’s world, patients are seeking more care on their heart conditions, cancer or other illnesses or injuries rather than on traditional hospital departments such as nursing, physical therapy or radiology. By focusing on patient care functions along these service lines, hospitals can optimize performance. The organizational structure should also be streamlined to support key strategies. Laying a strong foundation for the organization structure is important to ensure that key strategies are executed effectively. The control structure should also be flexible enough to adapt to shifts in strategy. Introducing changes such as a focus on traditional performance-driven strategies to a service line is sometimes stalled due to a rigid management structure. It is important to have a flexible control structure to facilitate decision-making processes that are most times challenged by poor leadership structures.
b)
Given the opportunity, I would correct an inefficient hospital strategy by reorganizing the organizational structure to focus entirely on key strategies of a service line. Clinical services, planning, marketing and public affairs are some of the new elements that I would to traditional organizational structures in hospitals. This way, any shifts in strategies can easily be adapted due to a flexible control structure. At the same time, as a leader, I would focus on building value around my employees by assigning them responsibilities based on the right service lines. This will ensure that they remain accountable for their performance and use of resources along with their service lines. A good management structure is also necessary to maintain a good relationship between the business strategy and the performance of my employees.

Here is a draft essay applying Peplau's nursing theory to the implementation of electronic health records:
Introduction:
Hildegard Peplau developed the interpersonal relations theory, one of the early nursing theories focused on the nurse-patient relationship. Peplau's theory outlines four phases of the nurse-patient relationship: orientation, identification, exploitation, and resolution. This theory provides a useful framework for examining how nurses can support patients through the transition to electronic health records (EHRs).
Orientation Phase:
When EHRs are first implemented, both nurses and patients will be in the orientation phase. Nurses will need training on the new system while patients may feel confused or anxious about the changes in documentation. It

Long Term Care Facilities
Long term care facilities have gained popularity nowadays in the health care department. The assignment will focus two long term care facilities one facility is from nursing facility, and the other one is the adult day care. One has the responsibility of managing and administering either of the two facilities. The new managers appointed needs to be oriented and familiarized on the management of the long term care facility. The assignment provides a description of the different multidisciplinary teams, and departments included in the facilities. It also provides those who are comprised in the target population of the various programs in the care facilities. The human resource and major staffing issues faced in the home nursing and adult day care. The assignment will also focus on the significance trends likely to affect the operation of the different programs in the long term care facilities and how to overcome them. Finally, the integration and cooperation forms in the long term care facilities are outlined in the assignment. The financing, management nature and quality issues affecting cooperation and integration in the facilities are also discussed in the assignment.
Multidisciplinary teams are very essential in nursing facility. The main objective of the multidisciplinary teams is to ensure that there is improved outcome on the patients’ health status. The multidisciplinary disciplinary teams involve the staffs in the nursing facility. There are different levels of multidisciplinary teams in the nursing facilities. The levels can be grouped as follows; nurses, technicians, anesthesiologists, and attending physicians (Medicaid, 2017). The teams work together through proper communication in different levels to ensure improved outcome of the patient. The various multidisciplinary teams should be trained to work collaboratively.
The main aim of the multidisciplinary teams is to ensure that there is improved outcome on the patient’s health status. The multidisciplinary disciplinary teams involve the staffs in the adult day care. Adult day care involves taking care of an individual in all round manner. That is nutritional, health, and the daily living needs. There are different teams involved in each activity in the adult day care facility. There are nutritionist, health specialists, fitness advisor, and living advisor. For health specialists, there are different levels of multidisciplinary levels can be grouped as follows; nurses, technicians, anesthesiologists, and attending physicians (Epstein, 2014). The teams work together through proper communication in different levels to ensure improved outcome of the patient. The various multidisciplinary teams should be trained to work collaboratively.

Ventilation Perfusion Ratio, Physiological dead space and physiological shunt
In this insightful lecture, Dr. Faiza, an esteemed Assistant Professor of Physiology, delves into the essential concept of the ventilation-perfusion ratio (V˙/Q˙), which is fundamental to understanding pulmonary physiology. Dr. Faiza brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table, with qualifications including MBBS, FCPS in Physiology, and multiple postgraduate degrees in public health and healthcare education.
The lecture begins by laying the groundwork with basic concepts, explaining the definitions of ventilation (V˙) and perfusion (Q˙), and highlighting the significance of the ventilation-perfusion ratio (V˙/Q˙). Dr. Faiza explains the normal value of this ratio and its critical role in ensuring efficient gas exchange in the lungs.
Next, the discussion moves to the impact of different V˙/Q˙ ratios on alveolar gas concentrations. Participants will learn how a normal, zero, or infinite V˙/Q˙ ratio affects the partial pressures of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the alveoli. Dr. Faiza provides a detailed comparison of alveolar gas concentrations in these varying scenarios, offering a clear understanding of the physiological changes that occur.
The lecture also covers the concepts of physiological shunt and dead space. Dr. Faiza defines physiological shunt and explains its causes and effects on gas exchange, distinguishing it from anatomical dead space. She also discusses physiological dead space in detail, including how it is calculated using the Bohr equation. The components and significance of the Bohr equation are thoroughly explained, and practical examples of its application are provided.
Further, the lecture examines the variations in V˙/Q˙ ratios in different regions of the lung and under different conditions, such as lying versus supine and resting versus exercise. Dr. Faiza analyzes how these variations affect pulmonary function and discusses the abnormal V˙/Q˙ ratios seen in chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) and their clinical implications.
Finally, Dr. Faiza explores the clinical implications of abnormal V˙/Q˙ ratios. She identifies clinical conditions associated with these abnormalities, such as COPD and emphysema, and discusses the physiological and clinical consequences on respiratory function. The lecture emphasizes the importance of understanding these concepts for medical professionals and students, highlighting their relevance in diagnosing and managing respiratory conditions.
This comprehensive lecture provides valuable insights for medical students, healthcare professionals, and anyone interested in respiratory physiology. Participants will gain a deep understanding of how ventilation and perfusion work together to optimize gas exchange in the lungs and how deviations from the norm can lead to significant clinical issues.

BUS 340: Business Communication
SUPPORT COORDINATION TRAINING
Each state providers services to adults with intellectual disabilities daily. These services are supposed to be delivered with quality and within the guidelines of policies created by the department of behavioral health and developmental disabilities from each state. Support coordinators are tasked with the job of being the eyes and the ears of the state as the state is not able to directly oversee each entity that is providing services to intellectually disabled adults. Support coordinator assess not only the quality of each provider’s service but each individual’s satisfaction with each service. This oversight includes support coordination, which the state directly oversees. Much like DFCS workers, support coordinators are spread thin and are required to do a great deal of work. This causes support coordinators to burn out quickly and even miss important things during visits to monitor services. This in turn causes providers to be able to get by with not providing quality services and services that meet the standard that the state’s DBHDD has set. It is much easier to blame the support coordinator for failing to do their job properly than to admit that the real issues lie within the lack of training and preparation. “This kind of work requires strong leadership and a solid infrastructure in order to sustain the various tasks involved in service coordination” (Bigby, Fyffe, & Ozanne, 2007).
To send someone out with the great task of managing not only the individual but the family of the individual and their support team without proper training is frightening. However this is the case with most support coordination agencies. Support coordinators have to assess the effectiveness and efficiency of services using judgement coupled with knowledge. If a support coordinator does not have particularly good judgement or enough knowledge, even about that particular individual, it can be impossible to assess services. Services or even a provider that may work for one DD individual may not work for another. Therefore, it is a neccessity to ensure that support coordinators are properly trained before being sent out into the field to assess services through extensive training. Training should include all aspects of the support coordinators expected tasks including: information (background) about the individual’s that the support coordinator is assigned to manage, judgement training, implementation of formal procedures and processes, resources and tools training, services training, time management and more importantly work-related stress reduction training. These activities are directed towards ensu ...

Best Practices in Team Interactions
Abstract
Why we have teams who are successful and others being unsuccessful? What real criteria or attributes are required for success? So contemporary teaching as well learning practice, including training over the years in higher education institutions has promoted great learning and individuals making use of the provided guidance have shown collaboration and achieved team success. This has thus promoted the requirement for identifying critical attributes needed for building successful teamwork.
This paper states examples of individuals who worked for identifying basic principles and set expectations for promoting coordinated contributions among various participants during the care process. It is therefore intended to provide the common reference points for guiding coordinated collaboration among the health professionals as well as patients and their families, helping to accelerate the inter-professional team-oriented care.
Teams in the health care take many roles, for example, we have disaster response teams along with teams that perform emergency operations as well as hospital teams providing care to acutely ill patients and the teams that care for people staying at home and also comprising of office-based care teams, teams centered to one clinician and patient, geographically disparate teams that tend to care for ambulatory patients and the teams that comprise of the patient and their loved ones along with the coordination of various supporting health professionals. Teams in health care therefore comprise to be large or small or are centralized or even dispersed as well as virtual or face-to-face depending on the tasks assigned. (Grumbach K, Bodenheimer, 2004).

It is important to have a flexible control structure to facilitate decision-making processes that are most times challenged by poor leadership structures.
b)
Given the opportunity, I would correct an inefficient hospital strategy by reorganizing the organizational structure to focus entirely on key strategies of a service line. Clinical services, planning, marketing and public affairs are some of the new elements that I would to traditional organizational structures in hospitals. This way, any shifts in strategies can easily be adapted due to a flexible control structure. At the same time, as a leader, I would focus on building value around my employees by assigning them responsibilities based on the right service lines. This will ensure that they remain accountable for their performance and use of resources along with their service lines. A good management structure is also necessary to maintain a good relationship between the business strategy and the performance of my employees.

Future of Healthcare - Crown Point - Interprofessional Teamsusffw
This document provides an introduction to interprofessional education and practice. It describes recommendations from organizations like the IOM to improve collaboration between healthcare professionals through interprofessional education and teams. The goals of interprofessional collaboration include providing better, higher quality care at a lower cost. It also identifies the need to prepare students with the skills to work effectively on interprofessional teams after graduation.
The document discusses community health nursing standards of practice, with a focus on home health nursing. It provides an overview of the Canadian Community Health Nursing standards, which include standards on health promotion, prevention and protection, maintenance and restoration, professional relationships, capacity building, health equity, evidence-informed practice, and professional responsibility. Examples are given of how home health nurses apply each standard in practice, such as providing health education to diabetes patients, encouraging preventative behaviors like handwashing during COVID, and advocating for policies that promote health equity. The standards aim to define excellence in community health nursing and guide nurses in their important work.
Here is a draft essay applying Peplau's nursing theory to the implementation of electronic health records:
Introduction:
Hildegard Peplau developed the interpersonal relations theory, one of the early nursing theories focused on the nurse-patient relationship. Peplau's theory outlines four phases of the nurse-patient relationship: orientation, identification, exploitation, and resolution. This theory provides a useful framework for examining how nurses can support patients through the transition to electronic health records (EHRs).
Orientation Phase:
When EHRs are first implemented, both nurses and patients will be in the orientation phase. Nurses will need training on the new system while patients may feel confused or anxious about the changes in documentation. It

Long Term Care Facilities
Long term care facilities have gained popularity nowadays in the health care department. The assignment will focus two long term care facilities one facility is from nursing facility, and the other one is the adult day care. One has the responsibility of managing and administering either of the two facilities. The new managers appointed needs to be oriented and familiarized on the management of the long term care facility. The assignment provides a description of the different multidisciplinary teams, and departments included in the facilities. It also provides those who are comprised in the target population of the various programs in the care facilities. The human resource and major staffing issues faced in the home nursing and adult day care. The assignment will also focus on the significance trends likely to affect the operation of the different programs in the long term care facilities and how to overcome them. Finally, the integration and cooperation forms in the long term care facilities are outlined in the assignment. The financing, management nature and quality issues affecting cooperation and integration in the facilities are also discussed in the assignment.
Multidisciplinary teams are very essential in nursing facility. The main objective of the multidisciplinary teams is to ensure that there is improved outcome on the patients’ health status. The multidisciplinary disciplinary teams involve the staffs in the nursing facility. There are different levels of multidisciplinary teams in the nursing facilities. The levels can be grouped as follows; nurses, technicians, anesthesiologists, and attending physicians (Medicaid, 2017). The teams work together through proper communication in different levels to ensure improved outcome of the patient. The various multidisciplinary teams should be trained to work collaboratively.
The main aim of the multidisciplinary teams is to ensure that there is improved outcome on the patient’s health status. The multidisciplinary disciplinary teams involve the staffs in the adult day care. Adult day care involves taking care of an individual in all round manner. That is nutritional, health, and the daily living needs. There are different teams involved in each activity in the adult day care facility. There are nutritionist, health specialists, fitness advisor, and living advisor. For health specialists, there are different levels of multidisciplinary levels can be grouped as follows; nurses, technicians, anesthesiologists, and attending physicians (Epstein, 2014). The teams work together through proper communication in different levels to ensure improved outcome of the patient. The various multidisciplinary teams should be trained to work collaboratively.

Ventilation Perfusion Ratio, Physiological dead space and physiological shuntMedicoseAcademics
In this insightful lecture, Dr. Faiza, an esteemed Assistant Professor of Physiology, delves into the essential concept of the ventilation-perfusion ratio (V˙/Q˙), which is fundamental to understanding pulmonary physiology. Dr. Faiza brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table, with qualifications including MBBS, FCPS in Physiology, and multiple postgraduate degrees in public health and healthcare education.
The lecture begins by laying the groundwork with basic concepts, explaining the definitions of ventilation (V˙) and perfusion (Q˙), and highlighting the significance of the ventilation-perfusion ratio (V˙/Q˙). Dr. Faiza explains the normal value of this ratio and its critical role in ensuring efficient gas exchange in the lungs.
Next, the discussion moves to the impact of different V˙/Q˙ ratios on alveolar gas concentrations. Participants will learn how a normal, zero, or infinite V˙/Q˙ ratio affects the partial pressures of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the alveoli. Dr. Faiza provides a detailed comparison of alveolar gas concentrations in these varying scenarios, offering a clear understanding of the physiological changes that occur.
The lecture also covers the concepts of physiological shunt and dead space. Dr. Faiza defines physiological shunt and explains its causes and effects on gas exchange, distinguishing it from anatomical dead space. She also discusses physiological dead space in detail, including how it is calculated using the Bohr equation. The components and significance of the Bohr equation are thoroughly explained, and practical examples of its application are provided.
Further, the lecture examines the variations in V˙/Q˙ ratios in different regions of the lung and under different conditions, such as lying versus supine and resting versus exercise. Dr. Faiza analyzes how these variations affect pulmonary function and discusses the abnormal V˙/Q˙ ratios seen in chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) and their clinical implications.
Finally, Dr. Faiza explores the clinical implications of abnormal V˙/Q˙ ratios. She identifies clinical conditions associated with these abnormalities, such as COPD and emphysema, and discusses the physiological and clinical consequences on respiratory function. The lecture emphasizes the importance of understanding these concepts for medical professionals and students, highlighting their relevance in diagnosing and managing respiratory conditions.
This comprehensive lecture provides valuable insights for medical students, healthcare professionals, and anyone interested in respiratory physiology. Participants will gain a deep understanding of how ventilation and perfusion work together to optimize gas exchange in the lungs and how deviations from the norm can lead to significant clinical issues.

Hepatocarcinoma today between guidelines and medical therapy. The role of sur...Gian Luca Grazi
Today more than ever, hepatocellular carcinoma therapy is experiencing profound and substantial changes.
The association atezolizumab (ATEZO) plus bevacizumab (BEVA) has demonstrated its effectiveness in the post-operative treatment of patients, improving the results that can be achieved with liver resections. This after the failure of the use of sorafenib in the already historic STORM study.
On the other hand, the prognostic classification of BCLC is now widely questioned. It is now well recognized that the indications for surgery for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma are certainly narrow in BCLC and no longer reflect what is common everyday clinical practice.
Today, the concept of multiparametric therapeutic hierarchy, which makes the management of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma much more flexible and allows the best therapy for the individual patient to be identified based on their clinical characteristics, is gaining more and more importance.
The presentation traces these profound changes that are taking place in recent years and offers a modern vision of the management of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
2. Slide 1 Speaker Notes
This is the fourth module of the HHS Education & Training Curriculum on Multiple Chronic Conditions (MCC)—a six-module curriculum designed
for academic faculty, educators and trainers to inform healthcare professionals caring for persons living with multiple chronic conditions. Based
on the MCC Education and Training Framework (http://www.hhs.gov/ash/initiatives/mcc/education-and-training/index.html), these modules
provide knowledge and tools healthcare professionals can use as they improve quality of care of persons living with MCC.
Terminology used throughout this presentation:
• Multiple chronic conditions (MCC) is defined many ways in the literature and in practice. For the purposes of this presentation, MCC is
defined as a person with two or more concurrent chronic conditions. Other similar terms used are complex patient, multimorbidity and
comorbidity for this population.
• “Persons living with multiple chronic conditions” (PLWMCC) is used instead of “patient” to place greater emphasis on the individual
being at the center of care.
Each module has a PowerPoint® slide presentation that can be saved, modified, and used in your presentations with health professionals at any
stage of education (undergraduate, graduate or continuing education). The notes in the presentation will help guide your talking points during
the presentations.

20. Slide 10 Speaker Notes
There are many different configurations of interprofessional teams, depending on the healthcare system, but often the team is comprised of:
Clinicians, professional staff and non-professional staff 10
The interprofessional team can also extend to include direct care workers, community
health workers and staff in the community that care for PLWMCC as well as PLWMCC and their families and caregivers.
Each member of the team understands their roles and responsibilities which are appropriate to scope of practice and knowledge and engage
with other team members regarding questions and concerns that facilitate shared person-centered problem solving1
. Interprofessional teams
include those who work to meet the needs of the individual person with MCC.
For example:
• Clinicians2
(physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants);
• Professional staff (registered nurses, Licensed practical nurses, pharmacists, dentists, psychiatrists/psychologists, behavioral health
providers, social workers, physical & occupational therapists);
• Specialists (cardiologists, pulmonologists, surgeons)
• Other office staff (Medical assistants, front office staff, community health workers and patient navigators);
• Community-based staff (public health workers; program facilitators/coordinators and health coaches)
• PLWMCC, their families and caregivers3
.
• Inclusion of PLWMCC and their families and caregivers is essential as managing their disease and symptoms, along with carrying out
activities of daily living, will most often occur outside of a clinical setting.

26. Slide 13 Speaker Notes
Healthcare providers and systems are developing team-based models of care that encourage working relationships between clinical and
community-based providers, PLWMCC, their caregivers and families to achieve the Institute for Healthcare Improvement’s Triple Aim of high
quality care, improved health at optimal costs1
. Several models have improved PLWMCC’s quality of care and quality of life. Here are three
examples of models of care that utilize interprofessional teams:
1. The Guided Care Model uses nurse-led teams to meet the complex care needs of PLWMCC. Other programs are experimenting with
other team configurations to improve care for PLWMCC.
2. Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) models support interprofessional team care that optimizes roles of each team member
including the primary care provider (i.e., physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants), nurses, medical assistants, pharmacists,
social workers, psychologists, dieticians, and specialists.
3. The Camden Coalition of Healthcare Providers has developed an innovative care management model for high needs / high costs patients
in Camden NJ. The Care Management Team relies on home visits with patients to coordinate doctors’ appointments, transportation,
and social services. The Team provides holistic medical care as well as root cause analysis and solutions to the often intertwined issue of
poverty and disease that plague its patients2
.
4. The Geriatric Resources for Assessment and Care of Elders (GRAMCE) model utilizes nurse practitioners and social workers to meet with
patients in their home and then consults with an interprofessional team to develop an individualized care plan.

Interprofessional collaboration
to understand how to provide more person and family centered care. The following four strategies are further described in the next two slides -
• PLWMCC and Interprofessional Teams
• Clinical Community Linkages
• Care Plans
29. The Role of PLWMCC on Interprofessional
Teams
PLWMCC
Serve as a core member of the team
Provide input into their health concerns,
goals and strategies
Monitor their care plans and
communicate with all members of the
team
Interprofessional Collaboration: Module 4
15
30. Slide 15 Speaker Notes
PLWMCC are integral to the Interprofessional Team as they know best their own chronic conditions in the context of their lives.
Interprofessional teams strive to provide culturally and linguistically appropriate care by integrating team members who can help achieve this
goal.
PLWMCC are core members of interprofessional teams.
PLWMCC and their families and caregivers are included in:
discussions about their health concerns and goals, and;
developing strategies for addressing those concerns and meeting goals.
PLWMCC help develop and monitor their care plans and communicate with members of the Interprofessional team when needed.
31. Care Planning: Interprofessional Team
Approach
Care Plans
are: Living documents
Developed with input by all members of
the team including PLWMCC
Accessible by all team members &
revised regularly
Interprofessional Collaboration: Module 4
16
32. Slide 16 Speaker Notes
Care plans place the concerns of PLWMCC at the forefront of the plan.
The care plan should include a clear communication strategy to ensure all team members are aware of goals that have been met or modified.
Care plans are:
• Living documents that elaborate on goals, strategies, and processes for optimizing the care and health of PLWMCC;
• Developed by and agreed upon by all members of the team including PLWMCC;
• Accessible by all team members and reviewed and revised regularly as goals are changed and met1
.
For PLWMCC who are children or have cognitive impairments (i.e., dementia or Alzheimer’s), their designated family member or POA (Power of
Attorney) should be highly involved in their care plan. Not all PLWMCC in this group will have the ability to review, understand, provide input
and agree to a care plan because of their conditions affecting their cognitive abilities.

Linkages

Community
Linkages Improves PLWMCC access to community
resources and support
Offers augmented interventions and
services
Increases care for PLWMCC
Interprofessional Collaboration: Module 4
17
Ongoing clear and consistent communication is central!
34. Slide 17 Speaker Notes
Effective relationships between clinical and community partners can provide a win-win situation for PLWMCC, clinicians and community
partners.
Community Partnerships require time and effort to create and maintain. It is the responsibility of one or more members of the interprofessional
care team to identify appropriate resources and connect the PLWMCC to those resources as needed. One of the most critical responsibilities is
to ensure communication between the clinical and community organizations is clear and consistent1
.
Creating sustainable, effective linkages between the clinical and community settings can:
Improve PLWMCC access to community resources and support to prevent, delay, or manage their chronic diseases;
• Offer augmented interventions and services that the clinical health care setting may not have the time, resources, or expertise to
provide;
• Increase care for PLWMCC, who use community resources2
.

36. Slide 18 Speaker Notes
Growing evidence and emerging healthcare models support the importance of effective interprofessional collaborations. Collaborating through
an interprofessional team increases productivity of the team thereby decreasing burden on individual clinicians, creates synergy between team
members that leads to higher quality care and makes resources1
available to the PLWMCC that may not have been otherwise.
Many aspects of interprofessional collaboration can result in improved care quality, safer and more effective health care system for PLWMCC2
;
and higher PLWMCC satisfaction3
.
Here are some barriers that interprofessional teams face which cause them to be suboptimal along with potential solutions.
• Barrier: Unplanned visits with unrealistic agendas; Solution: regularly scheduled visits with time specific agendas
• Barrier: Inadequate support to meet the PLWMCC’s need for care; Solution: to share the care among the team and/or expand
responsibilities of team members and to ensure that all team members are working within their full scopes of practice.
• Barrier: Insufficient time for documenting and complying with administrative requirements; Solution: sharing clerical tasks
collaboratively or employing scribing.

Interprofessional Collaboration: Module 4
19
38. Slide 19 Speaker Notes
Poor communication is the main cause of poor outcomes and errors in healthcare and can cause fragmented care. Effective communication may
reduce healthcare errors and improve satisfaction of care teams.1
Practicing and improving communication techniques are required all of the
time from all team members. Utilizing standardized documentation practices along with verbal messaging and in-box management2
are ways to
ensure that quality and continuity of care are achieved for PLWMCC.
Time constraints may be a challenge that prevents interprofessional teams from meeting whether there are conflicting schedules or not enough
time for everyone to meet all together. Establishing work flow mapping and new systems planning2
coupled with conducting time efficient
meetings can improve workflow for all. Scheduling huddles or regular team meetings in a specific timeframe allow the meetings to be more
efficient and effective.
Some EHR barriers include differing electronic communications tools and documentation errors due to the differing electronic communications
tools. When at all possible, using shared electronic records or other electronic communication methods may reduce burden for the
interprofessional team.
