Action items: Module 1 It is crucial that you and your teams view the “Improvement science” webinar Run a query in your EHR to generate your practice or health center’s BP control rate and share it with your entire staff. Use the “Measure accurately” assessment tools to evaluate current BP measurement performance. Identify opportunities to improve patient positioning to ensure accurate measurement. Administer and debrief results from the “Staff hazard” assessment with all staff and prioritize two defects to reduce or eliminate. Discuss findings from the “Measure accurately” assessment tools on the next Share your experiences webinar. Create an action plan that will incorporate measuring accurately into the patient flow of your office.

Next steps: Module 2 Automated office BP measurement: An opportunity to engage the entire practice or health center To do Listen to two podcasts (one on the technical aspects and one on the adaptive aspects of Module 2) Complete Module 2 tasks using the tools discussed in the podcasts and referenced in the fast fact sheets All Module 2 materials may be found here (access the module 2 folder) Be prepared for the next “Share your experiences” webinar on April 13, 2016 – Register HereRegister Here
