“All of the information is right there at your fingertips. It doesn’t matter where I’m at in this hospital—if I get an alert, I can respond a lot faster. I think our physicians and our neurologists would say the same thing. It makes our response times a lot better.” - Sarah Launius, BSN, RN, CCRN, ASC-BC, stroke coordinator at Baptist Health North Little Rock Visit the link below to learn how Baptist Health Medical Center achieved a 42% decrease in their average door-in-door-out time for #stroke transfers. #CustomerSuccess #EMSPreAlerting #PatientCare

Some practices have integrated a psychologist into their team. This allows the cardiologist to tell the patient another member of the care team can help them with their feelings, and then warmly refer them to the psychologist. #MentalHealth #Stroke

Continuity of care is one of the most important things we can do for patients. This is one area where rural healthcare really shines. Clinicians practicing in rural areas are the go-to source for everything that happens to their patients. They provide a stable, centralizing presence throughout the patient’s care journey. #ContinuityofCare #RuralHealthDay #PatientCare

Like any tool, to be optimally fast, efficient, and comfortable with it, you have to use it often – not just a few times a year at MCIs. Like the most useful tools, however, Pulsara is multipurpose – and just as suited for regular daily calls as it is for the occasional big ones. “With frequency, you build the muscle memory for success. We advocate using Pulsara for every single patient, whether it’s the toe pain that’s going to triage or the chest pain that’s going to the cath lab. Lower-acuity patients are an opportunity to get that practice in because you’re under much less stress. Then if you can make it second nature, then you just don’t have to think about it whenever something big happens.” - Corey Ricketson, Pulsara’s senior vice president for strategic accounts #IncidentManagement #SameToolEveryDayRegardlessofEvent #MCI #PatientOutcomes

“Telehealth can fill that gap: a second opinion, a colleague that you can turn to and say, ‘Let me run something by you. One of the saving graces of telehealth is it can help serve a mentoring function.” - Dr. Jean Sumner, Dean of the School of Medicine at Mercer University By building a network where #ruralclinicians can use their #telehealth platform to not only see patients but also connect with other clinicians to seek mentoring and advice, it could help them feel a little less alone. #RuralHealthcare

As a growing number of health care experts prioritize the #patientexperience, hospitals and clinics are actively transforming how they engage with patients by focusing on technology, operational improvements, and patient-centered approaches that improve #patientcare.

"We're using both [Pulsara and ESO] together to produce a really good outcome and a good situation...It's a great combination."

Watch the video to discover how this powerful integration can make a difference for your teams.

Many regulations in rural health were created to help residents of rural areas get access to higher quality care. However, those rules and regulations have too often ended up hindering clinicians from doing what was best for the patient—and unfortunately, patients paid the price. #RuralHealthcare #Telehealth
