Providence

Did you know that 65% of non-metro counties in the U.S. lack access to a psychiatrist? This means that many individuals in rural and underserved communities are left without essential mental health services. However, with TelePsychiatry, we are able to bridge this gap and provide vital care to those who need it most. Our TelePsychiatry program leverages a large virtual team to provide on-demand psychiatry services for many hospitals in emergency department and inpatient settings.

How are we using technology to enhance the patient experience, improve the patient journey and lead to improved staff satisfaction? Our Co-Caring model brings a virtual nurse onto the care team, helping support administrative tasks, while a bedside nurse provides direct patient care, allowing nurses to work at the top of their licenses. This model is leading to improved patient and caregiver satisfaction, while helping address workforce shortages. Hoda Asmar, chief clinical officer, details how we are implementing the model at acute-care units. Learn more: http://ms.spr.ly/6049YuzIF

How is technology redefining clinical work? New technology, such as AI, is helping to alleviate issues such as caregiver burnout, labor shortages and more. "As I think about the future, I'm excited about AI where it will actually give us the ability to leverage the brain trust and all of the knowledge that people can bring much better so that we can, to your point, do all of the administrative stuff and really help prioritize the work perhaps, and even help guide and support the practice." - Sylvain Trepanier, DNP, RN, CENP, FAONL, FAAN, Chief Nursing Officer Learn more: http://ms.spr.ly/6041Yygr7 #AI #healthcareAI #burnout

How are technologies, like Praia Health, revolutionizing the way our patients manage their health? Praia Health was designed to solve complex barriers to digital health transformation, enabling the delivery of highly customized and individualized patient care. "Prior to Praia, our development team was able to deliver maybe two or three significant new personalized features through the application. This year we are delivering more than 40. This new scalability is possible because the Praia Health Consumer Platform does the 'heavy lifting' associated with creating new features and capabilities within our logged-in experiences." - Andy Chu, SVP of Product & Technology Incubation Learn more: http://ms.spr.ly/6040YyeRj #healthcareleaders #digitalhealth

We're actively working towards achieving health equity for all. Our Health Equity Fellowship Program empowers caregivers to lead quality improvement and health equity efforts. The fellowship program supports caregivers in designing equity programs that address their patient population's specific needs. "They get to identify and lead a project in their area of influence so they can look at what they work with every day, bring the equity lens to it and implement a solution. And then they become the experts that can train others in the organization." -Nwando Anyaoku, MD, MPH, MBA, Chief Health Equity and Clinical Innovation Officer Learn more: http://ms.spr.ly/6045YBvUX #healthcareleaders #healthequity
