1Introduction
- Attention Viewer,
- Thank you for taking the time to view this
presentation. It is automated, meaning it will
play by itself, and it has an audio track, so
you need speakers. - The ideas conveyed here support a poster
presented at the NANDA-I conference in Miami on
November 13, 2008. -

2Terms
- Electronic Health Record EHR
- Hypothetical EHR brand BedPoint
- Hypothetical Cardiac Unit CU
3Nurses need help with EHRs
- Encourage collaboration among nurses for
information hand off by better documenting the
patient bedside "activities" that are not
specific to the EHR. - Provide a knowledge base (KB) that accumulates
key phrases that local nursing units use to build
a vocabulary. - Automate the work assignment scheduling in one
unit as a first project.
4Original Assumptions No Longer Valid
- EHR installation is the dominant system for
clinical information but does not contain 100
of information needed. - Nurses need a layer that helps to organize work
flow, those items that they track personally.
5Where We Want to Go
- Implementation of a self-sponsored work
assignment process for nurses. -
- Make sure that an adjunct process will complement
the existing EHR. - Get quick results by fixing a broken application.
6How do we get there?
- Run a proactive familiarity of concepts
campaign to get nurses more familiar with the
EHR. - Populate a KB with nursing terminology, policy
statements, and procedural references to help
nurses get work done.
7Environmental Assessment
- 12 Registered Nurses (RN) were surveyed to
determine what information they would want on a
pre-printed assignment sheet. - Many RNs have designed their own brain sheets
for self-qualifying their patients assessment
information.
