Slide 1

I am _________. I’ll address the audience more at the end of the event on what other things we can do about the adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) in hospice and much more.

Slide 2

The management of healthcare data has improved with the use of Electronic Health Records (EHRs). They are active in decision making and implementation of evidence-based practice (EBP) with other health care practitioners (HCP), including physicians, nurses and other HCP. However, the role of EHRs in hospice care is especially significant since the information can be easily made available to patients, ensuring that information is easily and accurately shared.

This can assist in giving the proper care at the right time. However, there are some concerns about EHRs, as well (Asgari et al., 2024). Others aren’t user-friendly, but are well-documented and have usage that is infrequent. The problems can cause stress to health care personnel and can impact the quality of care that can be given. Intelligent EHR systems lead to improved safety, efficiency, and reliability in all aspects of healthcare.

Current Workflow Problem

Slide 3

Inefficient elements in EHR may translate into complications during hospice care. Stifling documentation, primitive communication, and convoluted system designs restrict productivity. An excessive number of alerts, in conjunction with too much documentation, can also make healthcare personnel fatigued and burnt out (Asgari et al., 2024). The data pertaining to patients may, for some time, be inaccessible due to some technical restraints, such as insufficient Internet speed and system downtimes. These may compromise the security of patients and their satisfaction levels.

Proposed Workflow Change

Slide 4

EHR system modifications offer several improvements. Standard EHRs, simplified workflows, and improved clinical decision support systems (CDSS), and staff training are examples of changes that can lead to the establishment of less fraudulent and abusive EHR systems. Documentation is less difficult and time-consuming, with the assistance of templates (Olakotan et al., 2025). CDSS technologies can be used to notify and remind staff of error application prevention. Staff can also be offered training and technical assistance during CDSS systems implementation. These changes can lead to an enhancement of patient care.

Evidence-Based Practice Support

Slide 5

EHRs can also be used to improve patient outcomes. All these factors relate to EBP and safer care. CDSS can be melded into healthcare systems to inform healthcare professionals (HCPs) about interactions among drugs, patient safety, and various other concerns (Liu et al., 2021). EHRs have shown the ability to improve communication between healthcare participants, decrease errors within healthcare, and improve the quality of the decisions made within the healthcare processes (Chimbo and Motsi, 2024). Normalization of a workflow (which the EHR technology will positively contribute to) will only become part of the best healthcare practice.

Strategic Alignment with Organizational Goals

Slide 6

A good quality modification of EHRs should incorporate objectives and goals concerning the quality of care and services, productivity and efficiency, and compliance with regulations. However, according to Ribeiro and O’Brien (2025), the best patient/record ratio should be considered for optimal performance of the EHR Systems. Retrofitting EHRs in a way that permits the automation of many functions would be beneficial, especially when the organization is able to sustain improvement efforts during quality improvement. In addition, the standards further improve equity in the implementation of the general regulations and the standards specific to healthcare programs.

Stakeholder Impact: Clinical Staff

Slide 7

Integrating a basic functional workbook EHR across all clinic staff will be useful. The templates made available will provide adapted times for nurses to dedicate to patients. They would likewise have the best and most effective clinical decision-making tool, from which they would be directly notified and substituted in real-time.

Most importantly, it would provide a more advanced means for staff to communicate with the EHR system to build stronger interprofessional relationships among all staff members. As a result of all the above, it is most likely that a reduction in workload, a reduction in errors, and an increase in job satisfaction will be among the changes experienced by staff in the health care professions.

Stakeholder Impact: Patients and Organization

Slide 8

An actual meaningful change will be a game-changer for the patients and the health organizations. Improved accuracy in the world’s health records and access to real-time information about patients will also lead to improved patient safety, as there will be minimal chances of medical mistakes. The inter-provider care relationship will further contribute to care experience standardization and ‘patient-centeredness’ as coordinated care between the care providers will be added as well.

Looking at the organization as a whole, improved efficiency and fewer mistakes would help with costs and yield better results and performance. Care/coordination (for the first time) and making the organization’s names known to satisfy the patients (Bhaladhare and Rishipathak, 2025) will help the neighboring organization that is performing well.

Decision-Making Rationale

Slide 9

Once implemented, it will improve existing inefficiencies, specifically those associated with a given workflow. It will provide a logical and scientific answer to these problems, be it with Mr. X or issues associated with the wastage of time during the documentation and communication of the systems and their functionalities. Small things, like the tools of the CDSS and standard templates, will make the patients happier, and so will the workflow. Lee et al. (2025) discuss how much effort is involved in EHR decision making and in optimizing the type of EHR he/she/they should invest in, and in which this optimization effort is evaluated.

Efficiency, Safety, and Satisfaction

Slide 10

His new process will provide for anyone working with a hospice client information regarding patient safety, value added to a hospice, client satisfaction, and hospice efficiency. Reduced hours on administrative activities and a more user-friendly system would have meant that time spent on administrative activities would be reduced at the expense of having a better system, which would be better utilized towards better patient care by healthcare providers.

It also wants to add more layers of protection for patient safety so that the CDSS tools can be utilized without any error, and utilizing the tools seamlessly will help identify which risk factor(s) in particular are not benign. The patient outcomes, such as the level of satisfaction they would have gained, would also be enhanced (Kim et al., 2024).

Implementation Strategy

Slide 11

A complex plan, training to the persons involved, and a ‘standard’ workflow will need to be developed and monitored against the proposed plan. To ensure the healthcare workers would actually benefit from the EHR, the workers will be educated on how to use the EHR system, policies related to documentation, and data protection. They will have already suggested some kind of standards for workflows and templates to ensure some level of consistency and accuracy in the standardized records. (Sato et al., 2024). It will have to provide technical support 24/7 and ensure that all technical support provided will be able to solve any type of problem that is currently occurring in the system.

Conclusion

Slide 12

Making an impact on EHR at work will require multiple components: training, a systematic approach, and ongoing assessments. Healthcare workers (HCWs) would need to familiarize themselves with the different EHR modules, documentation policies, and data security policies. This will prepare them to understand how the EHR system will be used in different aspects of their work.

HCWs will have already drafted some form of standards to suggest to workflows and templates, which will ultimately achieve uniformity and accuracy of standardized records. It will also need a refinement formula that will be incorporated into it periodically based on the feedback, to help it deduce the areas where it needs refinement (Sato et al., 2024). It should also be a 24/7 provision of technical assistance, which can help fix any issues that arise within the system.
