Abstract:
Ontario
Shores
is
a
325-‐bed
Tertiary
Care
Mental
Health
Centre
in
Whitby
Ontario.
In
September
2008,
we
began
to
prepare
our
organization
for
the
MEDITECH
6.0
implementation.
The
process
of
implementing
MEDITECH
6.0
required
many
steps
in
order
to
ensure
incorporation
of
best
practices
and
the
roll
out
of
all
modules
within
the
EHR.
The
first
phase
of
the
project
focused
on
the
organization’s
readiness
and
began
with
process
mapping
and
revision
of
clinical
documentations
and
incorporation
of
a
documentation
methodology.
The
project
was
then
divided
into
two
phases
to
ensure
for
smoother
transition.
Phase
1
of
MEDITECH
6.0
went
live
in
October
2009,
which
included
pharmacy,
HIM
and
back
office
suite
of
applications.
This
also
included,
the
new
paper
MAR
and
order
process
which
was
to
mimic
the
future
state
of
MEDITECH
6.0.
In
March
2010
the
roll
out
of
all
the
new
clinical
documentation
forms
occurred.
These
forms
reflected
the
changes
that
were
to
be
incorporated
in
MEDITECH
6.0,
as
well
as,
best
practices
to
ensure
enhancement
of
care
within
the
organization.
October
2010
was
the
implementation
of
the
MEDITECH
6.0
advanced
clinicals
to
include
CPOE,
EMAR/BMV,
PCS,
ITS,
lab,
and
PCM
I,
II.
This
required
intense
training
of
all
disciplines,
including
physicians,
as
well
as,
significant
support
during
go-‐live
to
ensure
smooth
transition
from
paper
to
EHR.

6.0:
A
Journey
Presenter:
Keri
McGill
Organization:
Overlake
Hospital,
Bellevue,
Washington
Abstract:
In
September
of
2008,
Overlake
Hospital
began
the
journey
to
6.0.
The
journey
was
divided
up
into
three
phases.
The
initial
phase
was
an
upgrade
of
the
current
Financial,
Administrative,
Pharmacy,
and
Imaging
applications.
Order
Management,
Laboratory,
EMR,
and
esignature
of
PCM
were
included
in
this
phase,
and
these
applications
were
a
complete
build.
With
a
successful
August
1,
2010
Go-‐Live,
it
was
a
lot
to
celebrate.
The
BAR
conversion
was
an
overwhelming
success.
There
was
better
integration
between
applications,
and
the
additional
benefits
of
improved
workflow
and
processes
contributed
to
the
organization
moving
forward
in
anticipation
of
the
next
phase,
clinical
documentation.
But,
with
every
implementation,
there
are
opportunities
and
lessons
learned.
Overlake
Hospital
has
benefited
greatly
from
these
lessons,
and
this
presentation
will
provide
suggestions
and
ah
ha's
for
those
considering
going
to
6.0.
Keri
McGill,
RN,
MSN
is
the
Director
of
Clinical
Informatics
at
Overlake
Hospital.
She
has
been
a
registered
nurse
for
25
years.
After
16
years
as
a
Trauma
Intensive
Care
RN,
Keri
decided
to
venture
into
the
field
of
Informatics.
In
1994,
she
began
a
part
time
Informatics
position,
supporting
an
electronic
documentation
system
in
the
Critical
Care.
She
was
unsure
if
she
would
be
able
to
work
with
computers,
as
after
all,
"she
was
only
a
nurse".
This
thinking
proved
to
be
not
at
all
valid,
and
she
discovered
that
she
loved
the
field
of
Informatics.
After
accepting
a
full
time
position
in
Informatics,
Keri
received
her
Master's
degree
from
the
University
of
Colorado,
Denver
in
Healthcare
Informatics.
At
that
time,
an
opportunity
presented
itself
whereas
Keri
was
able
to
lead
a
team
that
implemented
an
enterprise-‐wide
EMR
within
a
3-‐hospital
system.
After
a
successful
implementation,
Keri
was
presented
with
an
opportunity
to
join
Overlake
Hospital
and
lead
the
organization
on
our
current
6.0
journey.
Currently,
Keri
and
her
team
are
moving
forward
with
the
6.0
implementation,
moving
along
the
road
with

6.0
PCS
Build:
A
Best
Practice
Approach
Presenters:
Amy
Aaselund
and
Keri
McGill
Organization:
Overlake
Hospital,
Bellevue,
Washington
Abstract:
As
Overlake
Hospital
began
the
planning
for
PCS,
it
became
apparent
that
there
was
much
work
to
do
related
to
current
workflow,
documentation
content,
and
processes.
The
project
team
was
presented
with
an
opportunity
to
implement
an
enterprise
wide
electronic
medical
record
to
include
the
incorporation
of
standardized,
evidence-‐based
content.
With
limited
resources,
staff
and
budget,
the
Project
Champion's
Team,
led
by
the
Nursing
Champion,
developed
a
subcommittee
from
the
hospital-‐ wide
Clinical
Care
Congress.
Clinical
Care
Congress,
a
Shared
Governance
committee,
supports
a
decentralized
organization
placing
the
responsibility
and
authority
for
decision
making
at
the
level
closest
to
patient
care.
The
conception
of
the
Clinical
Practice
Integration
committee
allowed
a
multi-‐ disciplinary
team
to
review
current
clinical
documentation,
evidence-‐based
practice,
and
MEDITECH's
standard
content
in
order
to
create
a
clinical
documentation
tool
that
meets
the
end-‐users
needs
while
enhancing
clinical
practice
across
the
organization.
Taking
a
quote
from
Spock,
"The
needs
of
the
many
outweigh
the
needs
of
the
few
or
the
one",
and
this
group
started
an
amazing
journey
of
discovery
and
revelation.
This
is
their
story!
Amy
Aaselund,
RN,
MSN,
has
been
a
CNS
at
Overlake
Hospital
for
three
years,
having
practiced
at
the
bedside
in
Critical
Care
and
the
Peri-‐Op
arena.
In
2009
she
accepted
the
role
of
Nursing
Champion
for
the
MEDITECH
6.0
EMR
project.
Over
the
last
2
years,
Amy
has
expanded
her
nursing
practice,
and
she
has
become
an
Informatics
Nurse,
leading
the
organization
on
standardizing,
identifying,
and
developing
best
practice
content
for
clinical
documentation.
In
her
spare
time,
she
is
mom
to
Cameron
and
one
year
old
Audrey.
Keri
McGill,
RN,
MSN
is
the
Director
of
Clinical
Informatics
at
Overlake
Hospital.
She
has
been
a
registered
nurse
for
25
years.
After
16
years
as
a
Trauma
Intensive
Care
RN,
Keri
decided
to
venture
into
the
field
of
Informatics.
In
1994,
she
began
a
part
time
Informatics
position,
supporting
an
electronic
documentation
system
in
the
Critical
Care.
She
was
unsure
if
she
would
be
able
to
work
with
computers,
as
after
all,
"she
was
only
a
nurse".
This
thinking
proved
to
be
not
at
all
valid,
and
she
discovered
that
she
loved
the
field
of
Informatics.
After
accepting
a
full
time
position
in
Informatics,
Keri
received
her
Master's
degree
from
the
University
of
Colorado,
Denver
in
Healthcare
Informatics.
At
that
time,
an
opportunity
presented
itself
whereas
Keri
was
able
to
lead
a
team
that
implemented
an
enterprise-‐wide
EMR
within
a
3-‐hospital
system.
After
a
successful
implementation,
Keri
was
presented
with
an
opportunity
to
join
Overlake
Hospital
and
lead
the
organization
on
our
current
6.0
journey.

industry
for
a
total
of
27
years
with

Computerized
Physician
Order
Entry
(CPOE),
Getting
the
Group
to
Play
in
Harmony
Presenter:
Marcia
Cheadle
Organization:
Inland
Northwest
Health
Services,
Spokane,
Washington
The
Wild
West
hasn’t
seen
a
phenomenon
like
CPOE
since
Physician
Documentation
showed
up
in
MEDITECH.
What
a
stunning
debut,
featuring
the
most
infectious
aspects
of
a
Doctors
signature
style.
Placing
orders
on
paper
wasn’t
worth
a
plugged
nickel,
but
now,
Computerized
Provider
Order
Entry
is
peaking
at
number
one
on
the
billboard
charts.
Emerging
astonishingly
fast
as
the
new
king
of
ordering,
CPOE’s
climb
can
largely
be
attributed
to
boot
scootin’
electronic
ordering
which
has
touched
millions
of
fans.
So
let’s
all
tip
the
brim
of
our
10
gallon
hats
to
our
Physicians
currently
using
CPOE
and
get
those
“horse
of
another
color”
Doctors
on
board.
Set
your
promising
artistic
Doctors
free
from
paper
and
learn
how
they
can
put
on

Sunday-‐Go-‐To-‐Meetin'

knock
‘em

A
Piece
of
the
Puzzle
to
Aid

Your
CPOE
Implementation!
Presenter:
Christin

Organization:
Great

Abstract:
Who
hasn’t
heard
the
question
“What’s
in
it
for
me?”
The
primary
focus
of
CPOE
implementation
has
been
its
impact
on
patient
safety.
Many
providers
do
not
doubt
that
this
in
fact
is
true,
but
still
question
how
this
process
will
benefit
them.
We
have
worked
closely
with
our
education
department
to
develop
a
Continuing
Education
program
for
the
completion
of
CPOE
training.
This
presentation
will
walk
through
the
steps
that
we
have
laid
out
for
overcoming
barriers
to
a
resistant
audience,
as
well
as
what
is
needed
to
begin
the
CME
program
at
your
organization.
Wouldn’t
it
be
nice
to
finally
offer
your
providers
something
for
their
cooperation
in
CPOE
implementation?

hope
to
be
LIVE
with
90%

by
the
end
of
the

would
be
valuable.

and
needed
to
find
devices

• We
were
unable
to
do
any
construction
because

Taking
the
Pen
and
Paper
Away!
Presenter:
Christian
Renaux,
RN
Organization:
Signature-‐Healthcare,
Brockton,
Massachusetts
Abstract:
Signature
Healthcare
needed
a
way
to
send
physician
documentation
electronically
for
professional
billing.
The
first
thought
was
through
the
nursing
module.
After
some
building
and
testing,
it
was
noted
it
just
wasn't
going
to
work.
So
the
decision
to
go
live
with
PDOC
in
Magic
5.61
was
made.
It
was
a
slippery
slope
but
proved
to
be
the
right
decision.
Since
then,
Signature
Healthcare
has
implemented
the
desktop,
clinical
review
and
CPOE
for
the
20+
hospitalist
group
among
other
physicians.
The

Downtime
Approach
Presenters:

Abstract:
The
integration
of
an
Electronic
Medical
Record
adds
infinite
advantages
in
data
organization,
research
and
efficiency.
This
technical
upgrade
also
develops
a
reliance
on
power
and
network
communication.
But
what
happens
when
there
is
a
temporary
loss
of
power
or
system
communication?
This
inquiry
prompted
Overlake
Hospital
to
develop
strategies
and
planning
in
preparation
for
potential
downtime
circumstances
after
the
implementation
of
MEDITECH
6.0.
The
ambition
is
economically
develop
the
ability
to
document
and
record
patient
data
in
a
manner
that
was
consistent
with
the
MEDITECH
6.0
assessment
forms
without
compromising
patient
care
or
information
storage.

is
the
Director
of
Clinical

at

She
has
been
a
registered

for
25
years.
After
16
years
as
a
Trauma
Intensive
Care
RN,
Keri
decided
to
venture
into
the
field
of
Informatics.
In
1994,
she
began
a
part
time
Informatics
position,
supporting
an
electronic
documentation
system
in
the
Critical
Care.
She
was
unsure
if
she
would
be
able
to
work
with
computers,
as
after
all,
"she
was
only
a
nurse".
This
thinking
proved
to
be
not
at
all
valid,
and
she
discovered
that
she
loved
the
field
of
Informatics.
After
accepting
a
full
time
position
in
Informatics,
Keri
received
her
Master's
degree
from
the
University
of
Colorado,
Denver
in
Healthcare
Informatics.
At
that
time,
an
opportunity
presented
itself
whereas
Keri
was
able
to
lead
a
team
that
implemented
an
enterprise-‐wide
EMR
within
a
3-‐hospital
system.
After
a
successful
implementation,
Keri
was
presented
with
an
opportunity
to
join
Overlake
Hospital
and
lead
the
organization
on
our
current
6.0
journey.
Currently,
Keri
and
her
team
are
moving
forward
with
the
6.0
implementation,
moving
along
the
road
with
