As you continue to learn, the shift to electronic patient information and communication can bring new opportunities to consider.

What do you know about your Electronic Health Record (E.H.R.) and its navigation. As a provider, what is the next step when a user has a negative experience? How do you equitably train staff and patients, is there a new update that caused an unintended outcome that you are unaware of?

The patient perspective requires asking about the patient experience with their care and effects.

How do quality improvement metrics  align with the value of care within safety, prevention, pediatrics, or inpatient setting? 

Perhaps a staff person who managed the migration from paper to E.H.R. or your patient portal moved on and took what they knew with them.  This not only leaves a knowledge gap within the ordinary workflow, but what you do not know may cost you money. Be it fines, the cost of rolling out a plan of correction, or unrealized opportunities in the value-based-purchasing or pay-for-performance arena.

Having an expert manage just those pieces of the business may be worth considering.

Membership at the Clinician and Provider or Facility/LTC level not only walk you through the steps but align you with resources all in one convienent location. Those level include what is under the Consumer/Caregiver membership level too.

Additionally, becoming a member in national or regional organizations can provide insight as to what others are doing, provide online guidance and webinars or the lessons they learned.

Purposeful Concepts LLC is a member of the National Quality Forum (NQF), as a paid member you see the high level links that are a part of your membership.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Congress, and the Administration turn to NQF to take on complex and pressing healthcare issues that impact tens of millions of Americans. Something to consider!

Throughout 2021-2022 we are serving on a National Action Team related to Telehealth/Telemedicine. Collaborations such as this help members to deepen their understanding, as well as learn new “best practice” within care models that others are implementing.

Your Health - Important Information

Health literacy and clear communication between health professionals and patients are said to be the key to improving health and the quality of health care. Did you know there is a Health Literate Care Model for patients to become more engaged in prevention, decision-making, and self-management? Resources for Implementation, although available and aligned with a National Plan to improve health literacy, may require alignment with a community organization or group of professionals to review your community data needs and outcomes.

Live a Life of Purpose!

The world we live in is complicated no matter what age you identify with. Our time is a precious commodity that most of wish we had more of.  As we enter deeper into the Age of Technology, and its rapid advances, how we think about circumstances throughout life is important. Situations create questions and through exploration of various resources, how do we know what choice to make?

Critical thinking allows for a structured process to take place. Awareness of your mental processing along with learning styles help develop a deeper understanding to a point of view. We at PCLLC want to guide you in these processes and suggest resources so you can ask questions, research deeper, evaluate options, consider evidence, and communicate conclusions that align with your inner compass.

Understanding options

To Improve is to Change!

Be Innovative in Your Approach!

To improve a relationship, adjustments are necessary. In business, there is technology, Customer Relationship Management (CRM) that is widely used, but face-to-face interactions allow for so much more!

Consider your beliefs

You don’t have to think hard to realize that company culture can eat the best strategy for lunch! When looking for a place to start either in a family setting, workplace, or community, analyze the “culture” of the sector and you will readily find opportunities for improvement! Seek out individuals that are welcoming and interested in meaningful improvement. I like to volunteer in an organization to learn how they interact with one another.

It’s amazing to experience the “power of one person, to make a difference!” Using the body, mind, and soul methodology, it’s remarkable to find a multitude of possibilities for each of us to contribute “good energy” as we connect and find others with “like mindedness” within volunteer efforts.

Measure outcomes, does result meet the goal

Key areas to analyze include the following:

  • Economic Stability — Poverty, Employment, Food Security, Housing Stability
  • Education — High School Graduation, Enrollment in Higher Education, Language and Literacy, Early Childhood Education and Development
  • Social and Community Context — Social Cohesion, Civic Participation, Discrimination, Incarceration
  • Health and Health Care — Access to Health Care, Access to Primary Care, Health Literacy
  • Neighborhood and Built Environment — Access to Healthy Foods, Quality of Housing, Crime and Violence, Environmental Conditions

Assessment refers to a wide variety of methods or tools that educators use to evaluate, measure, and documet learning outcomes, readiness, skill acquisition, or needs. 

Our family, friends, and community, are often the means we use to look to educate ourself, others, and bring resources to fill a “knowledge gap” or meet an unmet need within a community.

Purposeful Concepts LLC, located in Rochester, New York since 2017, is dedicated to sharing the resources we have found to help you create an improvement strategy where you live.
