ATTENTION TO LOWERING RISKS, ACCURATE DIAGNOSIS, AGGRESSIVE THERAPY AND OVERSIGHT CAN YIELD A HIGHER QUALITY OF LIFE FOR PATIENTS AS WELL AS REDUCE HOSPITALIZATIONS, READMISSIONS, AND COST OF CARE.

A PROVIDER SATISFACTION SURVEY HAS BEEN CONDUCTED TWICE SINCE THE START OF THE PROGRAM IN OCTOBER WITH 100% SATISFACTION. THIS SERVICE HAS RESULTED IN INCREASING THE THERAPEUTIC RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PATIENT AND PROVIDER WHILE HELPING PATIENTS ACCESS NEEDED NON-CLINICAL SERVICES. PERSONALIZED CARE TEAM:SIGNATURE HEALTHCARE'S COMPLEX CARE INITIATIVE IDENTIFIES AND CREATES A PROCESS TO MANAGE THE HIGH RISK COMPLEX CARE FOR ELDERLY PATIENTS. SIGNATURE HEALTHCARE ACCOMPLISHES THIS BY CREATING INFRASTRUCTURE TO IDENTIFY HIGH RISK ELDERS, AND DEVELOP SYSTEMS AND PROCESSES TO ENGAGE THESE PATIENTS IN A TEAM BASED, PATIENT CENTERED APPROACH TO CARE.

THE STRATEGY AND TACTICS TO ACHIEVE THIS ARE BASED ON THE PATIENT'S FUNCTIONAL GOALS; AND ARE DEVELOPED IN A WAY THAT IDENTIFIES THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF THE POPULATION. THRU THE PERSONALIZED CARE TEAM, PATIENTS THAT ARE IN THIS CLINIC ARE IDENTIFIED WHEN THEY ENTER THE EMERGENCY ROOM FOR EXAMINATION; THIS HAS REDUCED AVOIDABLE ADMISSIONS BY 45%.

POLYPHARMACY ISSUES ARE COMMON IN THE CHALLENGES IDENTIFIED FOR CARE OF THE CHF PATIENT POPULATION.HOMEWARD BOUND: HOMEWARD BOUND, INITIATED IN 2012, MOBILIZED STUDENTS FROM THE BROCKTON HOSPITAL SCHOOL OF NURSING, AND SUPERVISED BY NURSING INSTRUCTORS, INTO THE HOMES OF PATIENTS WITH CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE TO DO STATUS CHECKS ON THE PATIENTS' ADHERENCE TO TREATMENT PLANS PROVIDED UPON HOSPITAL DISCHARGE. TRAVELING IN PAIRS, THE STUDENTS SERVE AS "HEALTH COACHES" BY ASSESSING PRE-ESTABLISHED PARAMETERS INCLUDING WEIGHT AND BLOOD PRESSURE AND TRANSMITTING DATA TO THE HOSPITAL'S HOMEWARD BOUND OFFICE FOR EVALUATION BY THE PROGRAM'S NURSING STAFF. AS PART OF THE STUDENT'S CLINICAL ROTATION, HOMEWARD BOUND PROVIDES STUDENTS INVALUABLE KNOWLEDGE AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHARPEN VOCATIONAL SKILLS BY WORKING CLOSELY WITH PATIENTS IN THEIR HOMES FOLLOWING HOSPITALIZATIONS OF CHF. AS A RESULT OF HOMEWARD BOUND'S SUCCESS IN PROVIDING BETTER PATIENT CARE AND REDUCING READMISSIONS AND VISITS TO THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, THE PROGRAM RECENTLY EXPANDED TO ENCOMPASS THE DIAGNOSIS OF CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE. NEW PARTNERSHIPS HAVE BEEN ADDED WITH TWO LOCAL NURSING PROGRAMS: MASSASOIT COMMUNITY COLLEGE AND CURRY COLLEGE.THIS REPLICABLE MODEL HAS SHOWN MARKED REDUCTIONS IN EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS, HOSPITAL ADMISSIONS AND VISITS TO CARDIOLOGISTS AND PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS.
