3 SESSION DESCRIPTIONS KsRHA Conference - Student Panel: Workforce Implications Separate Registration Process Healthcare workforce will remain a challenge for the foreseeable future. In the past, most of the attention has been paid to the needs of the graduating residents. The purpose of this panel is to examine the perspectives of the new learners in the system as they develop their ideas about rural health care. We invite an exchange of ideas on the best ways to recruit and retain future health care workers of Kansas. CMS Rural Health Strategy Approximately 60 million people live in rural areas across the United States, including millions of Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. Through a series of listening sessions with rural stakeholders and consumers, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Rural Health Council sought input on the challenges and local solutions associated with providing high quality health care in rural communities to inform the development of a strategic plan to improve health care in rural America. Cara James, PhD, director of the Office of Minority Health and co-chair of the CMS Rural Health Council, will share the CMS rural health strategy as a result of those activities. Through the implementation of this strategy, CMS and its partners will help make health care in rural areas accessible, accountable and affordable resulting in the highest quality of care. Measuring CAH Swing Bed Quality As bundled payments and other pressures are placed on the hospital reimbursement system, it is becoming increasingly important to tell the story of your swing bed program. During this session, Gregory Wolf, principal, Stroudwater Associates, will discuss a project developed in partnership with the University of Minnesota Rural Health Research Center to develop and collect CAH swing bed clinical outcome measures. Based on a set of patient-level data elements collected by the clinical team during a swing bed episode of care, participating hospitals have the ability to analyze, report and benchmark performance. He will share results from the project pilot test and future plans for expansion. Emergencies Happen: How to Be Prepared On June 12, 2016, the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando, Florida became one of the deadliest mass shootings in U.S. history. During this session, Eric Alberts, who was working as the emergency preparedness manager for Orlando Health at the time, will recount lessons learned from the Pulse nightclub shooting. Alberts will explain the impact of the incident on hospital operations, provide a timeline of events to demonstrate the fast-paced nature of the incident, explain the importance of communication, and visit the primary challenges identified by hospital staff during and immediately following the event. Closing Care Gaps: A Front Line Approach to Population Health It is often challenging to figure out how a small hospital can start to tackle population health. During this session, Brooke McDonnell, BSN, RN; Beth Weimer, BSN, RN; and Toni Wendling, BSN, RN from Stormont Vail Health will share how a standard process for rooming and discharging patients can identify gaps in preventive care and provide a path for staying connected with patients. In addition, they will share strategies to reach out to patients after they leave the hospital to prevent future use of high cost health services. Leading Transition: A Leader s Story The challenges of leadership in rural health care have never been greater. Preserving past leadership tactics is no longer an option as the fundamentals of community demographics, changing care models, consolidation and mergers, technology applications, workforce shortages, and financial pressures shake the landscape of rural community health delivery. How do leaders respond in ways that serve the community through these difficult times? In this session, Scott Wordelman brings the lessons of success and failure from his 38 years of transformational health care leadership in communities across Minnesota. From his experience on the Canadian border to Minnesota s #1 trauma and safety hospital in Minneapolis, Wordelman shares the formula for leading transition, learned from the real world, not a book. His overall message is leading transition starts with you.
