Expanding Opportunities for Nurses to Lead Webinar

 

There will be a webinar next week called Expanding Opportunities for Nurses to Lead:  Impact of a Nurse Manager Development.

The Interdisciplinary Nursing Quality Research Initiative (INQRI) will host its seventh webinar in a series focused on the IOM report, ‘The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health.” This session will focus on the second recommendation made in the IOM report, which focuses on expanding opportunities for nurses to lead and diffuse collaborative improvement efforts. “Private and public funders, health care organizations, nursing education programs, and nursing associations should expand opportunities for nurses to lead and manage collaborative efforts with physicians and other members of the health care team to conduct research and to redesign and improve practice environments and health systems. These entities should also provide opportunities for nurses to diffuse successful practices.”

Presented by: Linda Flynn Suzanne Gordon

Countdown: 171 Days until Go-Live

My team finished another week of Clinical Practice Model (CPM) Care Planning sessions. I think these care planning sessions are getting better and better each week.  The attendance has been good considering how the schedule is laid out. The schedule is based on nursing specialty and you cannot expect to get a lot of attendance if nurses are caring for patients at the same time these sessions are going on.  Two more weeks of care planning and then we take a break and start another topic.

In addition, integrated testing started.  Since its the first round of testing, there has been many issues regarding the build.  To me, testing is very stressful.  I think its stressful since I don’t know the script very well or sometimes the script is not written clearly.  In addition, there are testing rules I need to remember.  I was given a short orientation on how to run the scripts, how to set up my columns etc.  Unless I am in the testing room everyday, its going to be quite a challenge to pick up speed and run through the scripts. I was getting mad at myself this past week since I was only able to run one script in the 3 1/2 hours I was in the testing room.

Besides testing, it was also the start of the Champions week.  Basically, the subject matter experts are champions and is helping out our team with the gap analysis. It feels like it is happening all at once and it is. Our days become longer and longer as we finish what we need to do in order to go-live in December.  We only have 171 days.  It seems like a lot but those days include the weekends and we don’t work on the weekends. So in reality, its shorter than 171 days.

My colleagues and I are all working very hard to get our deadlines met and trying to stay sane at the same time.  We have rules that we follow like being kind and understanding when someone has to go home to their children or have a long commute.

These countdown to go-lives are written generically because I don’t want to provide too many details of what system we are implementing and my location.

Managing Risks in Projects webinar

I attended another webinar called Managing Risks in Projects led by James Lewis.  He started the webinar off by posting some pictures of a car falling into a river and then a truck trying to take the car out of the river only for the truck to fall into the river as well. The last picture showed a bigger truck helping both the car and the smaller truck out of the river.

My interpretation of this is if the strategy of getting the car out of the river was planned with risks in mind; the person in charge,  does not necessarily have to be a project manager, would know the risks of sending a small truck out to save a car of the same weight. Of course the small truck will fall into the water.  In looking at the picture, the angle of the truck was not correct. The truck was at a 30 degree angle with no where to put the truck.  Why didn’t the truck driver move his truck at a different angle? Or even move his truck back in order to make room for the car?

Countdown: 177 Days Til Go-Live

177 days until my institution’s go-live with the new electronic medical record, which is 6 months away! I feel the anticipation, excitement, and nervousness from everyone involved. 

This has been the most stressful week I have ever experienced. So many to do, so little time. This week was the first week of Clinical Practice Model (CPM) Care Planning sessions. Overall, it went well and was attended my various disciplines including nursing, therapists – physical, occupational speech-language, nutrition, social work, nursing administration and management.  The end users shared they are feeling much better even though they have not seen the entire electronic medical record (EMR).  Our end users are so visual and detail oriented that the big picture is too overwhelming for them.  In addition, they feel they are only seeing certain parts of the EMR and would like to see the activities pertinent to them. A social worker commented that we are only showing them the nurse workflow and not others and was curious to see how the screens looked for other disciplines.

In addition to the care planning sessions, my own work that I am responsible for had to be done. Whether its email  follow-up’s, visios, writing testing scripts, or actual build work. Next week starts integrated testing so there are items on my list that stills needs to be done.

The next item on the CPM agenda is planning the Patient Education webinar. There are items that need to be hashed before I can show the activity on the EMR to the end users. All in all, I think I need more time in the day to do all of the things that needs to get done and the things that I actually want to do. I am getting stressed just thinking about the items on my to-do list.

I think from now until go-live we will be incredibly busy. Everyone is already working more than 50 hours a week.  I wished we had more than 24 hours in a day.

If you are considering accepting a position as a systems analyst, each hospital has varying responsibilities for this title.  Before accepting a position, please read the job description first. My job description may be a little different from what your hospital indicates a system analyst will do.
