The Cleveland Clinic Florida’s innovative 'Hospital At Home' initiative has increased both patient and nurse satisfaction. Learn more here: bit.ly/4asGpQ5 The Cleveland Clinic’s 'Hospital At Home' program launched last year in Florida and is now treating 200+ patients a month. The program has significantly improved patient experience and workplace culture, and the Cleveland Clinic plans to double the size of the program with the goal of having 10% of inpatient admissions treated at home. Chief Medical Operations Officer Richard Rothman, MD said "Our goal is to continue to grow safely. Sustainability of the care delivery model is really going to be dictated by whether outcomes are better, if individuals providing the care are enjoying the work that they're doing, and if we're able to do it at a cost that's comparable or less than the hospital." #Diabetes #HealthCareNews #DiabetesNews #DiabetesCare #Healthcare #TheClevelandClinic #Healthcareathome #acutehomecare #Hospitalcare #patientsatisfaction #patientexperience #TheClevelandClinicFlorida

📉 A program that provided automated text messaging with escalation to clinical care, if needed, was not successful in reducing acute care revisits in the 30 days post-hospital discharge, according to a recent study. The study assessed a post-discharge outreach program that aimed to support patients after hospital discharge. The post-discharge period is critical for hospitalized patients. The study noted that readmissions and acute care revisits are common. Thus, healthcare provider organizations employ numerous efforts to reduce these through transitional care management programs. These programs commonly feature nurses calling patients over the telephone to identify needs post-discharge, the study stated. While phone calls are effective, they can add to nursing burdens. 💬💻 #VirtualCare #HealthTech #Telemedicine #HealthcareInnovation #PatientCare #HealthcareTechnology #DigitalHealth #MedicalResearch #HealthcareTrends #HealthcareIndustry #HealthcareNews #HealthcareUpdates

How are Algo devices utilized in the healthcare industry? 🏥    A hospital recently deployed the Algo 8188 IP Ceiling Speaker in holding rooms for two-way communication between patients and nursing staff. When the speaker detected loud noise levels, a call was initiated to a phone at the nursing station.    In a busy hospital environment, this allowed for the safe monitoring of patients while allowing staff to focus on other critical tasks.     Other Algo solutions for healthcare include visual alerters and displays for attention-grabbing notification and color-coded messaging.    Learn more about our solutions for healthcare: https://lnkd.in/gz35RGTn    #AlgoSolutions #IPSpeakers #Healthcare #PatientSafety
