Automation Journey for Nursing… 2000-2004 Introduction of Electronic Health Records at bedside. Decentralized PCs & Devices. Move towards “going paperless” 2004-2008 Nursing Documentation Electronic Medication Administration Records (eMAR) Computerized Provider Order Entry 2008-20122012-2014 Additional Mobile Devices Device Integration / Interoperability Standardizing Documentation Specialty Documentation Wireless technologies Meaningful Use / Optimized Documentation Telemedicine/Remote Monitoring Analytics / Business Intelligence

Documentation Implications on Quality & Patient Safety What You Document One & Done – follow through Devil in the Details – accuracy, descriptors, relationship to other entries Same documentation, different patient – type-enter-repeat – copy and paste Batch jobs – timeliness of data entry

Clinical Intelligence Implications on Quality & Patient Safety Clinical Intelligence Move from data capture to data analysis – tell the story Care across the continuum Population Health Standards of Care – care paths, documentation guides, bundles, protocols Patient & device entered data
