Information Management Vision
•Recognizing:• Health care is knowledge based• Extends beyond the boundaries of the hospital
•Information Systems:• Patient-focused• Enabler for quality and safety • Support business processes through information access and flow• Enable process improvement through inquiry and change• Enable practice excellence
Delivering the right information, right person, right time
A History Lesson
• 2001- SMH has new IM strategic plan that sets the stage for an integrated clinical system
• Perceived to be behind peers• Clinical results viewing available; no other legacy
applications except in diagnostic departments (Lab, DI, Cardiology)
• Siemens contract signed 2002
Project Gemini
•Twinning of transformation and technology
•Clinical transformation as the underpinning to the project
•Harness power of workflow technology to enable practice and process change
Project Gemini Goals
• Improve access to health services• Improve clinical outcomes for patients• Increase patient safety; reduce risk of error• Improve coordination of care• Increase patient satisfaction • Improve the quality of worklife• Reduce overall delivery costs
And the best laid plans….
• SARS• Immature product• Expansive scope and short timeline• Unprepared clinicians
How will we achieve adoption?
1.Build and Demonstrate Value
2.Build Partnerships to engage clinical leadership
3.Innovation- leverage technology and tools with an emphasis on workflow enabled process
Articulate a Shared Vision
•The vision for clinical transformation at SMH is about much more than simply automating our existing paper systems.
•
•It is about carefully designing a patient centered, best-practice framework for implementation. – That is based on a model of interprofessional practice– Includes the use of evidence based care processes and
decision-support systems to achieve the best outcomes for our patients.
1. Value
• Understand the needs of clinicians
• Clinical user group
• Push the envelope with the design teams
• Participation in validation sessions
• Engagement with the vendor
• Define benefits and share with clinicians
2. Delivery
• Provide stability
• Act, respond
• Thoughtful, detailed planning for implementations
• Understand, anticipate and redesign the workflow
• Active and visible issues management
3. Innovation
• Be creative• NO is not in our
vocabulary ..
Enabling Infrastructure for Adoption
• People / Processes– Interdisciplinary culture / model– Workflow redesign expertise
• Technology– Design of technological tools– Access devices to bring technology to the point of care– Software - user centric design with clinical
decision support
Results of Demonstrating Value
CPOE Project Scope
•Electronic ordering of all
diagnostics, medications,
treatments and care orders
for Inpatient units
•Electronic MAR with bar code
closed loop administration

Learning's From our Launching of CPOE
1 Governance and organizational models are required to support complex clinical system implementations
2
Enabling roles, processes and evaluation necessary to successfully promote clinician adoption of CPOE/eMAR
3
Strategies are required for a phased-in implementation approach for CPOE/eMAR and the successful transformation of a patient centered care delivery model
6
CPOE/eMAR & MAK Scope
All patient care orders, non-medication orders and medication orders are placed by an MD or resident
To dispense medications, Pharmacists validate all electronic medication orders
Nurses chart all medications administration electronically
All providers can view medication history

Moving from Planning to Implementation
• Planning structure created ‘Silos’ that challenged the teams working relationships
• Implementation required greater co-operation and ownership between these ‘Silos’
• Performed an analysis of project structure and identified the needs for implementation
Conclusion:The CPOE/eMAR Project Structure needed to CHANGE

Implications of Different Day 1 Go-Lives
Big Bang – CPOE & MAK on Day 1•Initial chaos on the unit; complete transfer from paper to electronic
environment•Many different users to support (i.e. MDs, RNs, HDs, etc); fewer support
team members to users•Move directly from current state workflows into future state workflows
Phased Approach – CPOE or MAK on Day 1•Focus the changes on one key process (order entry/management vs.
medication administration)•Support team members can focus “at the elbow” training with key users
of the process•Users must adapt to interim processes before fully transitioning into
future state processes•Significant workload impact on pharmacy to bring MAK live first pre-
CPOE.

Driving Clinical Adoption – Physician Perspective
• Ensuring future state process fit with physician workflow
• Clear and consistent communication regarding the benefits of the changes
• Engaging physicians to develop orders sets which incorporate evidence-based, best practice guidelines
• Providing flexibility for training sessions
• Leveraging Physician Leads role in key clinical areas as champions
• Enabling multiple Soarian access points – remotely from home and through various devices (iPhones, blackberries, computers on wheels, iPads, etc.)
• Leveraging existing structures for communication, input into key decision points and project updates (i.e. Medical Advisory Committee)
18
Driving Clinical Adoption – Staff/Unit Perspective
• Understanding a clinical unit’s culture, practices and flow to define an implementation scope that most appropriate for the unit
• Ensuring transitions function as smoothly as possible (i.e. OR transfer workflow, ED admissions, etc.)
• Focus on creating shared ownership of the project between the project team, stakeholders and clinical unit
• Tackling less than desirable practices and processes;
•Frequency of telephone and verbal orders
•Using physician order sheets as a communication tool
•Minimizing incomplete orders
19
Driving Clinical Adoption – Challenging Processes
• Consult Orders • Suggest orders from a consulting MD that require review and
acceptance from the MRP• Transfers of Care
• From service to service or one level of care to another• Increased complexity when transferring from paper based area to
electronic unit• Supporting SMH’s educational mandate
• Organization trains over 300 nursing students, 150 medical students and 400 residents
• Currently, no safe electronic solution is available to support medical student workflows
• Enhancement Requests/Content Change Requests• Clear downtime procedures
20
Where we are today…..all med/surg beds are live!
• All staff physicians,nurse practitioner’s and residents enter orders electronically
• 215 physicians, 650 residents have been trained
– >2,500,000 medication, investigations, diagnostics and care orders have been placed
21
Right Drug = Drug Type + Dose + Route + FrequencyEach alert (incorrect drug, dose, or route) helps avoid a potential medication error
* Reporting period: March 9, 2010 to March 31, 2011, Source: Siemens MAK
Our 360 CPOE Trained RNs received 3694 Medication Alerts

Comparison of Biochemistry Lab Test Volumes – Pre & Post CPOE
• The real value has been on the integration of the process analysis methodology with the implementation. We have uncovered many “hidden gems” in the implementation
Unanticipated Workflow Changes
•Self administration policy on CF unit. Partnership of RN and patient
•Eliminated “take own meds”
•Standardized transfer order sets from critical care to floor
•Nurse patient assignments changed to geographic
•MDs have changed their rounding practices
•And we have over 95% orders entered directly by MDs
Implications
• Engaging clinicians is about driving value. Workflow can be a key asset in demonstrating early wins.
• Workflow analysis and technology, combined with advanced clinical information systems can be a mechanism to:• Deliver information to the clinician desktop• Assist organizations to transform practice• Facilitate knowledge translation from bench to bedside
The Result – SMH is now a leader in EMR deployment
• Over 30% of Ontario hospitals are between Stage 0 and 2
• Only TWO Ontario Hospitals have reached Stage 6.
What’s Next?
• Enabling the Emergency Department and Critical Care
• Adoption Sustainability Strategy & Optimization
• Implementation of Embedded Analytics (business analytics tool)
Road to Stage 7
Challenges to Attaining HIMSS 7
• Physician Documentation• Interoperability• Changing technologies• Financial Pressures• People• Competing organizational priorities
