Implementation of an Evidence-Based Electronic Health Record

Gecomo, J., Klopp, A., and Rouse, M. (2023). Implementation of an Evidence-Based Electronic Health Record (EHR) Downtime Readiness and Recovery Plan. Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS).
The authors present an evidence-based initiative to develop an electronic health record (EHR) downtime plan and recovery toolkit for a Houston hospital to improve nurses’ readiness for unscheduled EHR downtime. Results indicated that nurse knowledge and readiness improved, with EHR “Badge Buddies” (laminated ”cheat-sheets” that hang from nurse’s name badges), the EHR algorithm, and increased collaboration with nursing unit leaders contributing to successful outcomes.
