6 Historical State Time on diversion: 8.5% LWBS: 4.04% Median door to provider time: over 60 minutes Median total length of stay: over 200 minutes Poor core measure compliance 6

8 ED Vision for the Future Current State Process Staffing Capital Investment Patient Flow Project ED Flow Inpt. Discharges MD & RN communication between ED and Inpt. Unit Triage/Registration Laboratory TAT Transfer Leakage MD Staffing/Productivity Nursing Clinical Support Administrative Registration ED Information System Tracking Board Electronic Medical Record ED Front End Redesign Wireless Bedside Registration Future State (2-3 yrs) Best Practice Patient Satisfaction Door to Doc (30 mins / 90%) Increased volume and capacity 8

9 Patient Flow Project System Project Teams Cambridge Health Alliance

10 10 Patient Flow is a Hospital-Wide Concern Every hospital unit has a part to play the ED cannot solve the flow problem alone.

11 Patient Flow Project Goals 11 Improve patient flow on all 3 campuses Do so in a timely, safe, effective, efficient, and patient-centered manner Implement best practices Utilize improvement methodologies, tools, and measures Utilize a multi-disciplinary, multi-campus single solution approach Engage hospital staff

12 Focus is Across the Continuum 12 12

13 Fundamental Mission of Teams 13 Team ED Patient Flow Laboratory Turnaround Time No Delay Nurse Report Physician Admitting Orders Inpatient Discharges Mission Minimize time patients spend in the ED through the application of best practices Manage the ordering, collecting, testing, and verification of lab work through improved and standardized procedures Transport admitted patients to inpatient unit within 30 minutes of ED nurse giving report Expedite completion of admitting orders for admitted ED patients Decrease length of stay through effective discharge planning activities

14 Project Methodology 14

15 Recommendations Input Reengineering / Rapid Assessment Patient partner Establish Mini Registration 100 % Bedside Registration Elimination of triage Maximization of bed utilization Engage patients in the improvement project (Press- Ganey comments reviewed monthly with staff and posted in ED) 15

16 Input Reengineering 16

17 ED Patient Partner 17 ED Patient Access Representative Ambassador to patients in the waiting area Mini registration to facilitate patient flow Part of a response to deficiencies in Press Ganey patient satisfaction scores related to arrival and personal issues Press Ganey Percentile Rank All MA Hosp DB 20K-30K State N=961 N=205 N=33 Cambridge Hospital 7/1/06-9/30/06 Waiting time before noticed arrival Helpfulness of first person Personal/Insurance Info Somerville Hospital 7/1/06-9/30/06 Waiting time before noticed arrival Helpfulness of first person Personal/Insurance Info

18 Rapid Assessment Overview The purpose of the unit is to facilitate rapid assessment and treatment at the point of arrival in the Emergency Department Eliminate traditional Express Care, Triage and Registration and utilize the space for Rapid Assessment (RA) Combine nursing resources from Express Care and Triage offers the ability to care for multiple patients at once Physician Assistant in RA. The role of the PA is to rapidly assess and when applicable, treat and release the patient without entering the Acute ED. May also play a role in the initial assessment and ordering of diagnostics for acute patients. 18

19 Space Utilization A room is a room is a room : Eliminate specialty rooms Avoid pooling Centrally locate high-risk patients 19

20 Recommendations Redefining roles of staff RNs and PAR IIs draw labs Charge Nurse Role RN s discharging patients Create MD Order Sets This has streamlined order entry Create RN Order Sets (MD Standing Orders) 20

21 Recommendations 21 IT: EPIC / ASAP PACS MUSE System Integration: PCP Initial notification Heads up from PCP and EMS Medical record access Access to ED workup Referral Standardization of: P &P, Guidelines ED documents Equipment Material

22 Recommendations Process to improve quality of care Throughput: Early identification of admissions Maximize utilization of all inpatient capacity Early assignment of inpatient beds Early handoff to the admitting service Passive nursing report for admitted patients Early transport to the floors Escalation process Back up Code Help 22

23

24 Outcomes Results are overwhelming ED TAT reduced A 70% reduction in the number of patients leaving without being seen Patients have noticed a difference The reception area has remained empty during peak times This was the quickest emergency room visit I've ever had ED Staff feels like the ED is calmer less chaotic 100% of patients are registered at bedside Budget neutral Reallocated existing staff and space Zero up front capital costs 24
