Improving Clinical Workflow by Replacing Pagers with Vocera Messaging
April 28, 2011

Tackling Patient Hand-Offs at Phelps County Regional Medical Center
January 26, 2011
Requires Flash. As patients move across the continuum of care, it is essential that information about their treatment moves with them. The very nature of patient hand-offs, whether across shifts, departments, or facilities, is prone to error. Busy clinicians may omit important patient information during shift change; receiving departments may not understand the care plan of a transferred patient; and family members are often left out of the loop with respect to the status of their loved ones. As a result, breakdowns in hand-off communications have been cited by The Joint Commission as the number-one cause of sentinel events in healthcare.
