Improving Quality Outcomes in Underserved Populations Through Collaborative Care
While on a mission to provide high-quality care to underserved populations, rural hospitals are confronted with a series of challenges including distance, long delays, and high costs, among others. With patient satisfaction at the top of the value-based care chart, underserved populations such as acute dialysis patients, bring to the forefront some of the major pain points hospitals face.
Join this online, interactive discussion where medical experts share challenges they have faced when working for rural hospitals, the lessons learned by embracing a hybrid-unit operations model, and how this collaborative care model could apply to larger metroplexes.
Learning Objectives:
- Addressing the ongoing problems of unit operations
- Thinking ‘out of the box’ as CNO leaders of constant change
- Looking into the advantages of a collaborative staffing model and how it can provide better care outcomes while reducing cost and risk
- Evaluating specific hospital in-house services (Dialysis) and the challenges they face
- Analyzing the opportunities collaborative care provides for such in-house services
