Agenda

• Neuroscience, Orthopaedic and Wellness Center (N.O.W.) patient-centered care model

• Identifying the tools

• Mapping the patient journey

• Piloting and implementing RTLS (Real-time Locating System)

• Data and future goals

4

Learning Objectives• Compare the function of patient self-rooming to the standard waiting

room model in an ambulatory care facility

• Compare the implementation of a RTLS in a preexisting clinic and a newly constructed ambulatory clinic

• Describe how RTLS can be used by staff at the point of care

• Recognize standard measures acquired with RTLS

• Appraise RTLS data to target processes in need of quality improvement

5

Agenda

• N.O.W. patient-centered care model

RTLS

• Infrared: requires visual path (e.g. television remote and TV); expensive

• Wi-Fi: large and expensive badges; expensive

• Ultra-Wide Band: most precise to cm (e.g. Amazon warehouses)

• Passive RFID: readers required ~ every 15 feet (e.g. library)

• Bluetooth: false positives

21IR RFID

►Infrared (IR) emitted from diodes on badge: every three seconds when moving

every two minutes when stationary

►Radiofrequency ID (RFID) emitted every two minutes

22

RTLS

• Use RTLS (Versus)

• Live – supporting operations in real-time

• Periodic – KPI (e.g. wait times)

• Ad hoc – PI projects

• Room allocation tool – distribution of rooms by

physician need

Agenda






41

Periodic and ad hoc

Initial KPI focus on patient satisfaction:

• Overall length of stay (OLOS): badge assigned to deposited

• Wait time: sub-wait or prior to time in exam room with clinical staff

• Time alone: time alone once in room

Focus on Orthopaedics and Radiology

Challenges• “Off the shelf” reporting practical only for drilling down on individual

patients.

• Process analysis requires visualizing ALL of the data

• Current process:

– Daily (12 AM) data transfer to SQL server

– Tableau used to manipulate based on:

• Actions

• Processes

• Intervals
