News & Analysis

PSQH Innovation Awards Winner: SCL Health Improves Process for Prone Positioning of COVID-19 Patients
The fourth annual PSQH Innovation Awards recognize healthcare organizations who overcame patient safety or quality improvement challenges. In this article, we highlight the winning submission selected from SCL Health in Superior, Colorado. Thanks to Patricia McGaffigan, RN, MS, CPPS, vice president of safety programs at the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, for her help in evaluating the submissions.
Clinical Perspectives and Building a Better EHR
As the industry moves toward value-based care models, clinicians have an even greater need to optimize their patient care through access to high-value information. According to physicians like Bill Hayes, MD, CMO at CPSI and a member of the HIMSS Electronic Health Record Association Executive Council, now is the time for stakeholders to improve EHR system functionality, and for EHR designers to enable input from clinicians and thereby ensure the most clinically relevant information is available at the point of care.
