News & Analysis | | | Technology Helps Surface SDOH in Patient Records | | What do you do when you have the patient information you need, but that information is buried within the patient record as unstructured data? This is the challenge NorthShore Edward-Elmhurst Health sought to resolve when they determined they needed a better way to identify patients’ social determinants of health when they presented at the ED—one of the most crucial points in intervention. |
| Rethink Nursing Workflows to Relieve Burnout | | In addition to the reduction in healthcare services, nurse staffing issues directly affect patient care. A recent survey by the Michigan Nurses Association found that 42% of respondents knew of a patient’s death being caused by nurse understaffing, nearly double the percentage (22%) from seven years ago. |
