Opportunities for Improvement and Plan for Follow-up Recommended

The admission process, from reception to examination and treatment or discharge, is bundled with a lot of paperwork, which wastes a lot of time and contributes to patient and visitor dissatisfaction. This creates an opportunity for improvement by employing an electronic health record (EHR) system. EHRs support inter-hospital data-sharing interhospital transfers (Warren et al., 2019). This means that the application of an up-to-date EHR system can improve interdepartmental transfers in the Nursing Home. It can also support data sharing to reduce the paperwork that burdens the patent. The recommended follow-up will be to communicate with the participants and share with them the survey findings and what they mean to the patients, patient care, safety, quality of care, and patient satisfaction.
