| FORM 990, PART III, STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: | SINCE 2004, EXCELA HEALTH HAS HELD TRUE TO ITS GOAL OF SERVING AS A REGIONAL HEALTH CARE SYSTEM THAT EMBODIES HIGH QUALITY, ACCESSIBILITY AND ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY LOCALLY. STAYING THE COURSE, EXCELA HEALTH CONTINUES TO BELIEVE ITS SUCCESS IS ROOTED IN SAFE AND EFFICIENT PATIENT-CENTERED CARE DRIVEN BY VALUE-BASED BEHAVIORS. MORE TO THE POINT, EXCELA HEALTH SEEKS TO LIVE ITS MISSION OF "IMPROVING THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF EVERY LIFE WE TOUCH" COUCHED IN VALUES KNOWN AS THE EXCELA WAY. EVIDENCE OF THOSE IDEALS CAN BE FOUND IN THE EVENTS OF FY 2017, WITH THE ADDITION OF NEW CONCEPTS, SERVICES AND TECHNOLOGIES WHILE, AT THE SAME TIME, GARNERING RECOGNITION FOR ITS EFFORTS FROM NATIONAL, REGIONAL AND LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS. IN ALL CASES, THE RESULTING PROGRAMS, SERVICES AND AWARDS BENEFITTED THE AREA'S CITIZENRY AND DEMONSTRATED A FOCUS ON QUALITY MEASURES, FURTHER ENHANCING THE WAY EXCELA HEALTH PROVIDES CARE. PERHAPS MORE IMPORTANT WAS THE CONTINUING ADDITION OF HIGHLY TRAINED PHYSICIANS, NURSES AND HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS WHO CONTINUOUSLY BRING ITS MISSION TO LIFE WHILE TOGETHER, MANAGEMENT, THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND MEDICAL STAFF COLLABORATE DILIGENTLY, AND THOUGHTFULLY, TO PROVIDE OUTSTANDING CARE TO THIS REGION. ALL IN A DAY'S WORK AT EXCELA HEALTH AS THE EXTRAORDINARY IS EMBRACED AS ROUTINE BY THE 4,931 EMPLOYEES, 531 PHYSICIANS, 223 ALLIED HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, 23 FAMILY MEDICINE RESIDENTS, AND 872 VOLUNTEERS AND AUXILIARY MEMBERS WHO ARE THE LIFE'S BLOOD OF THE HEALTH SYSTEM. AS A PENNSYLVANIA NON-PROFIT CORPORATION DESCRIBED UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, EXCELA HEALTH WAS ORIGINALLY INCORPORATED AS SUCH EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 1984, PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS SOUTHWEST HEALTH SYSTEM, THEN WESTMORELAND HEALTH SYSTEM, FOLLOWED BY WESTMORELAND LATROBE HEALTH PARTNERS AND FINALLY, EXCELA HEALTH. COMPRISED OF THREE HOSPITALS - FRICK, LATROBE AND WESTMORELAND - IN ADDITION TO OTHER HEALTH-RELATED SUBSIDIARIES, EXCELA HEALTH CONTINUES TO EXPAND AS THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY DEMAND. THE TRADITION OF PROVIDING CARE IN NEIGHBORHOODS AND COMMUNITIES CONTINUES SO ACCESSIBILITY AND CONVENIENCE ARE MORE THAN JUST AN IDEA THEY ARE AN IDEAL BROUGHT TO LIFE FOR THE GOOD OF ALL CONSTITUENTS. ACROSS WESTMORELAND COUNTY AND BEYOND, EXCELA HEALTH OUTPATIENT REHABILITATION FOR OUTPATIENT PHYSICAL, OCCUPATIONAL AND SPEECH THERAPY, QUIKDRAW AND QUIKDRAW PLUS FOR ROUTINE BLOOD WORK, IMAGING AND DIAGNOSTICS, AND EXCELA'S NETWORK OF PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANS AND SPECIALISTS OFFER HIGH QUALITY CARE AND SERVE AS EXAMPLES OF WHAT MEDICAL CARE IS ALL ABOUT - PROVIDING TREATMENT EFFICIENTLY AND EFFECTIVELY WITH THE OBJECTIVE OF MINIMIZING AND/OR RESOLVING THE DETRIMENTAL EFFECTS OF A GIVEN CONDITION SO INDIVIDUALS CAN LEAD THE BEST LIFE POSSIBLE. BUT "CONDITIONS" ENCOMPASS MORE THAN THE PHYSICAL; THEY INCLUDE THE PSYCHOSOCIAL/EMOTIONAL ASPECTS OF GOOD HEALTH AS WELL. THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH TEAM, WITH SERVICES OFFERED AT THE LATROBE AND WESTMORELAND HOSPITAL CAMPUSES, ALSO REACHES INTO THE COMMUNITY TO AID THOSE IN CRISIS. DURING FISCAL 2017, EXCELA HEALTH BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES PROVIDED THE FOLLOWING COMMUNITY SERVICES: 1. THE SCHOOL-BASED MENTAL HEALTH PROGRAM (OUT OF THE LATROBE HOSPITAL CAMPUS) OPERATES FULLY FUNCTIONAL OUTPATIENT CLINICS IN SIX WESTMORELAND COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN DERRY, LATROBE, LIGONIER VALLEY, HEMPFIELD, SOUTHMORELAND AND MOUNT PLEASANT. SIX LICENSED MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, A PART-TIME PSYCHIATRIST, AND A NURSE PRACTITIONER PROVIDE SERVICES IN THE SCHOOL SETTING. EACH SCHOOL SITE IS LICENSED BY THE PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WELFARE OFFICE OF MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE SERVICES (OMHSAS) AS SATELLITE CLINICS OF THE LATROBE HOSPITAL CHILD OUTPATIENT CLINIC. 2. NURSING HOME SUPPORT, BASED AT THE WESTMORELAND HOSPITAL CAMPUS, IS A COMMUNITY PSYCHIATRIC NURSING PROGRAM PROVIDING IN-HOME/COMMUNITY PSYCHIATRIC NURSING SERVICES. THE PROGRAM TARGETS PRIORITY POPULATIONS (AN OMHSAS DESIGNATION) WHO WOULD OTHERWISE BE AT-RISK FOR STATE HOSPITAL ADMISSION AS WELL AS SERVING AS THE FIRST POINT OF FOLLOW-UP FOR INDIVIDUALS DISCHARGED FROM STATE HOSPITALS. THERE ARE EIGHT RNS AND ONE AIDE ATTACHED TO THIS PROGRAM, WHICH IS LICENSED BY THE PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WELFARE OFFICE OF MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE SERVICES (OMHSAS) AS A SATELLITE OF THE WESTMORELAND HOSPITAL OUTPATIENT CLINIC. 3. THE CRISIS RESPONSE CENTER (CRC), LOCATED ON THE WESTMORELAND HOSPITAL CAMPUS, IS THE NEWEST ADDITION TO EXCELA HEALTH'S SERVICES AND OPENED MARCH 25, 2013. IT IS AN ENHANCED EXPANSION OF THE OFFICE-BASED CRISIS WALK-IN SERVICES THAT HAD BEEN PROVIDED PREVIOUSLY THROUGH EXCELA HEALTH'S OUTPATIENT CLINIC. IT WAS DEVELOPED TO PROVIDE AN ALTERNATIVE TO EMERGENCY ROOM TREATMENT FOR INDIVIDUALS IN PSYCHIATRIC CRISIS. COMBINED, THE EXCELA HEALTH EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS SEE APPROXIMATELY 3,600 INDIVIDUALS IN PSYCHIATRIC CRISIS EACH YEAR; AT LEAST 60 PERCENT DO NOT MEET THE CRITERIA FOR INPATIENT ADMISSION AND ARE DISCHARGED FROM THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT INTO THE COMMUNITY. THE AMOUNT OF TIME NECESSARY TO ADDRESS THIS POPULATION HAD SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT THROUGHPUT AND INCREASED THE STRESS LEVEL AMONG EMERGENCY STAFF, WHO WERE NOT TRAINED SPECIFICALLY TO DEAL WITH THE PSYCHIATRIC PATIENT. THE PROGRAM UTILIZES AN EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE FOR PSYCHIATRIC CRISIS KNOWN AS THE "LIVING ROOM MODEL AND WAS DEVELOPED UNDER THE PRACTICE GUIDELINES FOR PSYCHIATRIC CRISIS, PUBLISHED IN 2009 BY THE SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES ADMINISTRATION (SAMHSA) OF THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES (HHS). THE PROGRAM IS INDEPENDENTLY LICENSED BY THE PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WELFARE OFFICE OF MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE SERVICES (OMHSAS) BUT MUST BE ATTACHED TO AN UNDERLYING PSYCHIATRIC OUTPATIENT CLINIC. THE CRC IS ATTACHED TO THE LICENSE OF THE WESTMORELAND HOSPITAL OUTPATIENT PSYCHIATRIC CLINIC. 4. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH OPERATES A FIVE-WEEK SUMMER CAMP, CALLED CAMP FOCUS, WHICH SERVED 133 CHILDREN FROM THE LATROBE, DERRY, MOUNT PLEASANT AND LIGONIER VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN FY 2017. THE CAMP OFFERS AN ALTERNATIVE FOR SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN SO MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT, GROWTH AND LEARNING CAN CONTINUE DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS. THE DAY CAMP FEATURES INDIVIDUALIZED PLANS OF CARE TO RESOLVE A CHILD'S DIFFICULTIES MORE EXPEDIENTLY AND PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY TO APPLY AND REFINE SKILLS DEVELOPED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. EXPENSES FOR THE CAMP TOTALED $18,512 IN FY 2017. STAFF ALSO PROVIDES VARIOUS TRAININGS, IN-SERVICES AND CONSULTATIONS INCLUDING QUARTERLY PRESENTATIONS TO THE BARIATRIC SURGERY SUPPORT GROUP. EXCELA HEALTH JOINTWORKS AT LATROBE AND WESTMORELAND HOSPITALS INCORPORATES CURRENT CARE FOR JOINT REPLACEMENT PATIENTS WITH UP-TO-THE-MINUTE TECHNIQUES AND TREATMENTS. JOINTWORKS, A PROGRAM THAT OFFERS A COMFORTABLE, ENJOYABLE AND RAPID JOINT REPLACEMENT EXPERIENCE, FEATURES A WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT AND ALLOWS THE PATIENT TO GO THROUGH THE THERAPY AND RECOVERY PROCESS WITH A FAMILY MEMBER WHO CAN ENCOURAGE THE PATIENT THROUGHOUT THAT TIME. THE PROGRAM LIVES THE CONCEPT OF A TEAM EFFORT AS ORTHOPEDIC SURGEONS, CAREGIVERS AND THERAPISTS IN THE HOSPITAL, HOME AND OUTPATIENT SETTINGS WORK CLOSELY WITH THE PATIENT AND FAMILY FOR THE BEST POSSIBLE OUTCOME. FROM PRE-CONDITIONING EXERCISE TO HOME CARE FOLLOW-UP, JOINTWORKS PRESENTS A SEAMLESS APPROACH TO JOINT REPLACEMENT. WITHIN THE WESTMORELAND COUNTY MARKET AREA LIES A POPULATION OF NEARLY 151,599 INDIVIDUALS AGE 50 AND OLDER. ACCORDING TO THE 2017 STATE ESTIMATE, THE WESTMORELAND COUNTY POPULATION NUMBERS 365,169 SO THAT CURRENTLY, OLDER CITIZENS COMPRISE JUST UNDER ONE-HALF OF EXCELA HEALTH'S SERVICE AREA POPULATION. AND THAT PERCENTAGE WILL INCREASE IN COMING YEARS. CONSIDERING THAT THE AGE RANGE FOR MOST HIP AND KNEE REPLACEMENT SURGERY IS 50 TO 80 YEARS OF AGE AS NOTED BY THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEONS, EXCELA HEALTH SHOULD CONTINUE TO SEE A RISE IN THOSE PROCEDURES AS WELL AS OTHER ORTHOPEDIC AND REHABILITATIVE SERVICES. IN FACT, EXCELA'S JOINT WORKS PROGRAM CONTINUES TO GROW WITH OVER 1,284 JOINT REPLACEMENT PATIENTS AT LATROBE AND WESTMORELAND HOSPITALS IN FY 2017. IN FACT, EFFORTS CONTINUE THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN ORTHOPEDIC CENTER OF EXCELLENCE, GATHERING TOGETHER CLINICAL COMPONENTS OF CARE FOR THOSE WITH ORTHOPEDIC ISSUES, SPORTS INJURIES AND CONCUSSION MANAGEMENT. |
| FORM 990, PART III, STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS (CONT) | MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGERY, TOO, REMAINS A VIABLE OPTION FOR THOSE NEEDING SURGERY AND IS AVAILABLE AT THE HOSPITALS OF EXCELA HEALTH AS WELL AS THE OUTPATIENT SITES AT EXCELA SQUARE AT NORWIN AND LAUREL SURGICAL CENTER. WITH A SECOND ROBOT AT WESTMORELAND HOSPITAL IN ADDITION TO THE FIRST DA VINCI ROBOTIC SURGICAL SYSTEM AT LATROBE HOSPITAL, THIS FORM OF SURGERY CONTINUES TO GROW IN POPULARITY, WITH TRAINED GENERAL, GYNECOLOGIC, THORACIC AND UROLOGIC SURGEONS PERFORMING PROCEDURES SUCH AS HYSTERECTOMY; UTERINE FIBROID REMOVAL; PROSTATE/PROSTATE CANCER SURGERIES; BLADDER AND KIDNEY SURGERIES; COLORECTAL, HIATAL HERNIA/ESOPHAGEAL (ACID REFLUX) SURGERY; GALLBLADDER AND HERNIA SURGERIES, AND OTHERS. LATE IN 2014, THE SYSTEM ADDED A ROBOTIC THORACIC SURGEON TO ITS MEDICAL STAFF, WIDENING THE SCOPE OF SERVICES FOR THE POPULATION. THE DEVICE GREATLY AIDS IN PATIENT RECOVERY AND THE PHYSICIAN'S ABILITY TO PERFORM PROCEDURES WITH GREATER PRECISION AND VISIBILITY. EXCELA LATROBE HAS OFFERED ROBOTIC SURGERY SINCE 2009, WITH PROCEDURES INCREASING YEAR OVER YEAR. IN FISCAL YEAR 2017 ALONE FOR BOTH FACILITIES, 728 PATIENTS AVAILED THEMSELVES OF THIS ADVANCED SURGICAL TECHNOLOGY. QUALITY AND SAFETY EFFORTS EXCELA HEALTH IS ALWAYS KEENLY AWARE OF QUALITY AND PATIENT SAFETY, AS EVIDENCED BY THE NEW INITIATIVES AND PROGRAMS UNDERTAKEN IN FY 2017 TO RAISE THE BAR EVEN HIGHER. AS SUCH, THE FOLLOWING WAS INSTITUTED AND, IN SOME CASES, MADE NOTE OF BY EXTERNAL AGENCIES. 1. EXCELA HEALTH HOSPICE CONTINUES TO EXPAND PROGRAMMING FOR VETERANS AND THEIR FAMILIES. HOSPICE PATIENTS WHO ARE VETERANS RECEIVE A CERTIFICATE OF APPRECIATION THANKING THEM FOR THEIR MILITARY SERVICE. ADDITIONALLY, EXCELA HEALTH HOSPICE STAFF PARTICIPATE IN VETERAN-SPECIFIC TRAINING EQUIPPING THEM TO CARE FOR EXCELA HEALTH'S VETERAN PATIENTS. HOSPICE IS COMMITTED TO EXPANDING SERVICES TO VETERANS AS WORK CONTINUES WITHIN THE NHPCO WE HONOR VETERANS PROGRAM FRAMEWORK. FURTHER, EXCELA HEALTH TOOK TIME TO HONOR EMPLOYEES AND THEIR FAMILIES WHO SERVED IN THE MILITARY WITH A "THANK YOU" CARD ON VALENTINE'S DAY 2017. 2. DR. JAMES MASTERSON, A CREDENTIALED IMPACT CONSULTANT WHO LEADS THE EXCELA HEALTH SPORTS CONCUSSION PROGRAM, WITH EXCELA ATHLETIC TRAINERS MICHAEL FOSTER AND CATHERINE BASHIOUM, PROVIDED COVERAGE FOR U.S. OLYMPIC GOLD MEDAL GYMNASTS SIMONE BILES, ALY RAISMAN AND OTHER STARS FROM THE 2012 AND 2016 OLYMPIC TEAMS WHEN THEY PERFORMED IN THE KELLOGG'S TOUR OF GYMNASTICS CHAMPIONS AT PPG PAINTS ARENA OCTOBER 23, 2016. DR. BRYAN LEE, ORTHOPEDIC AND SPORTS MEDICINE SPECIALIST, ALONG WITH CERTIFIED ATHLETIC TRAINERS PEGGY FILLINGER AND KALIEGH ADKINS COVERED THE EVENT AT THE GIANT CENTER IN HERSHEY OCTOBER 25. 3. EXCELA HEALTH HOSTED ITS ANNUAL EMPLOYER-FOCUSED HEALTH CARE SYMPOSIUM OCTOBER 28, 2016, TITLED "KEEPING DRUG TESTING STANDARDS HIGH AND HEALTHCARE COSTS LOW." WESTMORELAND COUNTY BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY PERSONNEL LEARNED ABOUT THE PREVALENCE OF DRUG USE IN THE WORKPLACE, THE LEGALITIES OF MEDICAL MARIJUANA AND STATES' RIGHTS, AND HOW TO PROMOTE A DRUG-FREE ENVIRONMENT. DISCUSSION OF NON-OPIOID PLAN TREATMENT OPTIONS ENSUED ALONG WITH INSIGHTS REGARDING DATA TRANSPARENCY AS A DRIVER FOR INFORMED HEALTHCARE DECISIONS AS WELL AS A LOOK AT AN EXCELA HEALTH STORY REGARDING COST AND QUALITY. 4. EXCELA HEALTH BEHAVIORAL HEALTH HOSTED A "CHILDREN'S EMOTIONAL WELLNESS SYMPOSIUM" IN NOVEMBER 2016, EXPLORING COMPLEX SITUATIONS THAT REQUIRE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH INTERVENTION. NURSING, SOCIAL WORKERS, TEACHERS, GUIDANCE COUNSELORS AND OTHER SCHOOL PERSONNEL LEARNED ABOUT "WORKING WITH LGBTQ YOUTH", "DEALING WITH COMPLEX TRAUMAS", AND "ATTACHMENT AND EATING DISORDERS" AMONG OTHER TOPICS. 5. EXCELA HEALTH'S PARTNERSHIP WITH AREA VOCATIONAL TRAINING PROGRAMS REAPED REWARDS FOR ALL INVOLVED. INDIANA COUNTY TECHNOLOGY CENTER TRAINS MEDICAL ASSISTANTS WITH THE SUMMER SESSION STUDENT COUNT SERVING AS A FIRST-TIME COHORT. THE PROGRAM INCLUDED 12 MONTHS OF CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION PLUS 160 HOURS IN AN EXTERNSHIP AT EXCELA HEALTH, GIVING THEM REAL LIFE EXPERIENCE WITH EXCELA HEALTH MEDICAL GROUP AS THEY EARNED CREDIT. STUDENTS WERE LIMITED IN SERVICE PROVISION BUT THE OFFICE EXPERIENCE PREPARED THEM FOR FUTURE EMPLOYMENT. 6. FOR PATIENTS TRANSITIONING FROM THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT TO INPATIENT CARE OR HOME, AN EMERGENCY TRANSITION UNIT WAS DEVELOPED AT FRICK, LATROBE AND WESTMORELAND HOSPITALS. USING A PORTION OF THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT TO CARE FOR OBSERVATION PATIENTS MEETING CERTAIN CRITERIA, THE UNIT HAS EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT NURSES OVERSEEING THE PATIENT'S CARE. BENEFITS OF THE PROJECT INCLUDE: - FOLLOWING DISTINCT PROTOCOLS FOR EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT OBSERVATION PATIENTS THAT HELP EXCELA HEALTH CARE FOR PATIENTS APPROPRIATELY AND MOVE THEM MORE SWIFTLY FROM TREATMENT TO DISCHARGE OR ADMISSION. - TRANSITIONING THE RIGHT PATIENTS TO INPATIENT STATUS WITH AVAILABLE BEDS TO ACCOMMODATE THEM. - INCREASING EFFICIENCY AND THROUGHPUT. - DOCUMENTING APPROPRIATELY AND UTILIZING THE TOOLS THAT THE HEALTH SYSTEM HAS AVAILABLE - ASSURING QUALITY OUTCOMES AS MEASURED BY RETURN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISITS WITHIN SEVEN TO 10 DAYS, UNIT AND PROTOCOL COMPLIANCE, AND PATIENT SATISFACTION SCORES 7. NURSING LEADERSHIP AT EXCELA HEALTH CONTINUES ITS MAGNET JOURNEY TO ATTAIN MAGNET STATUS IN ITS PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE. THROUGH THE FOLLOWING PROGRAMS AS WELL AS CONTINUOUS COMMUNICATION TO THE NURSING STAFF AND BEYOND, THAT GOAL CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED. SOME INITIATIVES WITHIN FY 2017 INCLUDE: - IN MARCH 2016, AN EVIDENCE-BASED DOCUMENTATION PROGRAM USING AN INTERDISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO RECOGNIZE AND IDENTIFY PATIENTS AT HIGH RISK FOR READMISSION WAS IMPLEMENTED. SIXTY READMISSION FACTORS ARE IDENTIFIED VIA A PREDICTIVE MODEL WITH READMISSION RISK SCORES GUIDING NURSING CARE THAT FOCUSES ON EDUCATION, DISCHARGE PLANNING, FOLLOW-UP APPOINTMENTS, NOTIFICATION ON WHEN TO CALL THE DOCTOR AND OTHER, SPECIFIC INTERVENTIONS. INTERDISCIPLINARY PLANS OF CARE ARE SUGGESTED FOR THOSE AT HIGH RISK OF READMISSION AND STRUCTURED INTERDISCIPLINARY BEDSIDE ROUNDS HAVE ADDED TO THE GOAL OF REDUCING READMISSIONS. THE THREE AND FIVE-MONTH HEALTH CHECKS (JUNE AND AUGUST 2016) HAVE SHOWN STEADY IMPROVEMENT IN TARGET ENCOUNTERS WITH A TRANSITION CARE MANAGEMENT ASSESSMENT COMPLETED AND IN TARGET ENCOUNTERS WITH DISCHARGE DOCUMENTATION COMPLETED. - DECEMBER 2016 SAW THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CERNER INFECTION CONTROL MODULE THAT SOUGHT TO CONSOLIDATE INFORMATION AND PROVIDE A MORE UNIVERSAL APPROACH TO DATA COLLECTION AND DOCUMENTATION. TO INITIATE THE PROJECT, CHANGES IN DOCUMENTATION TOOK PLACE FOR NURSING AND RESPIRATORY THERAPY. THESE CHANGES WERE TAUGHT, IMPLEMENTED AND MONITORED TO ENSURE INFECTION CONTROL PRACTITIONERS' (ICPS) NEEDS WERE MET. THE CLINICAL INFORMATICS AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY STAFFS CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THE ICPS TO IDENTIFY OPTIMIZATION OPPORTUNITIES. - IN LATE 2016, EXCELA HEALTH ADOPTED A PROACTIVE APPROACH IN IDENTIFYING HIGH RISK PATIENTS RECEIVING IV OPIOID MEDICATIONS. LED BY NURSING, AN INTERDISCIPLINARY TEAM WAS CHARGED WITH IDENTIFYING RISK FACTORS, EVALUATING AND EXECUTING AN IV OPIOID ADMINISTRATION POLICY, AND DECREASING INCIDENTS INVOLVED WITH THE USE OF THESE DRUGS. THE TEAM IMPLEMENTED NEW PROCESSES AND INCREASED MONITORING, POLICY CHANGES AND STAFF EDUCATION RESULTING IN FEWER EVENTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE USE OF INTRAVENOUS OPIOID MEDICATION. THEY ALSO DEVELOPED A PRE-SCREENING TOOL TO IDENTIFY PATIENTS WITH PREDISPOSITION FACTORS. SINCE IMPLEMENTATION IN SEPTEMBER 2016, THE TEAM CONTINUES TO AUDIT AND IMPROVE THE SUCCESS OF THIS PROGRAM. |
| FORM 990, PART III, STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS (CONT) | - NURSING IDENTIFIED NEEDED IMPROVEMENTS IN BEDSIDE ROUNDS INCLUDING LACK OF TIMELY COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE ROUNDING TEAM AND OTHER, MULTIPLE PROVIDERS, AND VARIATIONS IN ROUNDING PROCESSES. A MULTIDISCIPLINARY TEAM MET FOR A TWO-DAY LEAN PROJECT SURROUNDING THIS ISSUE AND ESTABLISHED STANDARD WORKFLOW FOR WHAT IS NOW CALLED THE STRUCTURED INTERPROFESSIONAL BEDSIDE ROUNDS (SIBR), DEFINING CLEAR ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES FOR EACH TEAM MEMBER AND DEVELOPING EVALUATION METRICS. SIBR WAS IMPLEMENTED WITH THE HOSPITALIST GROUP BEING THE PRIMARY PHYSICIAN FOCUS. EVERY DAY, EVERY PATIENT IS ROUNDED WITH THE CORE TEAM OF PATIENT AND FAMILY, PRIMARY NURSE AND PHYSICIAN. TO EVALUATE THE PROCESS, AN ELECTRONIC AUDIT WAS CREATED THAT ENABLED THE OBSERVER TO ANSWER YES/NO QUESTIONS IF THE DESIRED EXPECTATION WAS COMPLETED DURING ROUNDING. - THE CARE TEAM PROGRAM IS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN NURSING AND VOLUNTEER SERVICES THROUGHOUT THE EXCELA HEALTH SYSTEM. DESIGNED TO ENHANCE PATIENT COMFORT AND SATISFACTION WHILE PROVIDING SUPPORT FOR NURSING, VOLUNTEERS ESTABLISH COMMUNICATION WITH THE PATIENT AND FAMILY, VISITING EACH ROOM TO OFFER SUPPORT, IF AND WHEN NECESSARY. IF THERE IS A CONCERN, THE VOLUNTEER NOTES AND SHARES IT WITH THE NURSE MANAGER ON THE UNIT. OBJECTIVES INCLUDE: SUPPORT OF THE EXCELA HEALTH MISSION OF IMPROVING THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF EVERY LIFE WE TOUCH, AND AIDING IN THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE HOSPITAL CONSUMER ASSESSMENT OF HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS AND SYSTEMS (HCAHPS) PERFORMANCE SCORES. THE CARE TEAM VOLUNTEERS FOCUS ON PATIENT COMFORT; QUALITY OF CARE; FAMILIARITY WITH THE COMMUNICATION BOARD; COMMUNICATION EFFECTIVENESS AMONG STAFF, VOLUNTEERS AND FAMILY; ROOM CLEANLINESS; PATIENT SAFETY, AND PROVISION OF AMENITIES. - TO HELP EASE THE BURDEN OF SCHOOL LOANS FOR NURSES, EXCELA HEALTH INTRODUCED ITS NEW LOAN FORGIVENESS PROGRAM, A WAY OF REPAYING PART OF THOSE LOANS WHILE A NURSE BUILDS HIS/HER CAREER. AFTER A SIX-MONTH INTRODUCTORY PERIOD OF EMPLOYMENT IS MET SATISFACTORILY, $100 EACH MONTH IS PAID TO THE NURSE'S STUDENT LOAN INSTITUTION UP TO 50 CONSECUTIVE MONTHLY PAYMENTS. THE EMPLOYEE MUST REMAIN EMPLOYED AT EXCELA HEALTH FOR AT LEAST 12 MONTHS AFTER RECEIVING THE FINAL LOAN PAYMENT. - NURSE RESIDENCY PROGRAM - IN CALENDAR YEAR 2016, 66 NURSES ENTERED THE NURSE RESIDENCY PROGRAM AND IN CALENDAR YEAR 2017, 58 NURSES ENTERED THE PROGRAM. SINCE THE PROGRAM HAS BEEN IN EXISTENCE, THERE HAS BEEN A STEADY INCREASE IN NEW NURSE RETENTION RATES, A MEASURE OF THE SUCCESS OF THE NURSE RESIDENCY PROGRAM. THE PROGRAM IS COMPOSED OF THREE PHASES CULMINATING IN PHASE III INDEPENDENT ACTIVITIES SUCH AS JOINING A PROFESSIONAL NURSING ORGANIZATION, CONFERENCE ATTENDANCE, ENROLLMENT IN A BSN PROGRAM OR ENGAGING IN UNIT-BASED OR COMMUNITY PROJECTS. - COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS - THE SCHOOL OF ANESTHESIA CELEBRATED NATIONAL CRNA WEEK (JANUARY 22 TO 28, 2017) BY PERFORMING A COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECT BENEFITTING THE ACTION FOR ANIMALS HUMANE SOCIETY, A NO-KILL ANIMAL SHELTER IN DERRY, PA. THE DONATION DRIVE BEGAN NOVEMBER 1, 2016 AND ENDED DECEMBER 11, 2016. THE EXCELA NURSE RECOGNITION AND RETENTION COMMITTEE BECAME ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN THE BLACKBURN CENTER'S COMMUNITY EVENT CALLED "WALK A MILE IN HER SHOES". THE EVENT IS MEANT TO "RAISE OUR VOICE AS WE MOVE OUR FEET" IN SPEAKING OUT AGAINST DOMESTIC AND SEXUAL VIOLENCE. THE PROFESSIONAL IMAGE COMMITTEE SET A GOAL OF AT LEAST 12 PARTICIPANTS TO WALK AS A TEAM, REALIZING A 30-MEMBER TEAM. MONIES RAISED FUND THE AGENCY'S SERVICES. IN NOVEMBER 2016, THE EXCELA HEALTH NURSE RECOGNITION AND RETENTION COMMITTEE SPONSORED THE "GRATITUDE GRAFFITI WALL". DESIGNED BY ART THERAPY STUDENTS FROM NEARBY SETON HILL UNIVERSITY, EMPLOYEES, PATIENTS AND VISITORS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPRESS THEIR THANKS AND CONTEMPLATE A SOURCE OF GRATITUDE WITH A MEANS OF OUTWARD EXPRESSION. THE 30-DAY PROJECT SERVED AS A PRACTICE OF PURPOSEFUL APPRECIATION OF ONE'S LIFE THROUGH INTERACTIVE ART. - RN KAREN ADAMOSKI HAS AGAIN ORGANIZED A FUNDRAISER BENEFITTING PANCREATIC CANCER RESEARCH, WHICH RAISED $10,000 FOR THIS WORTHWHILE CAUSE. HELD IN JULY, THE EVENT WAS CO-HOSTED WITH DR. SHELLY JOHNS, GASTROENTEROLOGIST AT EXCELA HEALTH, BOTH OF WHOM HAVE LOST LOVED ONES TO PANCREATIC CANCER. - SHARED GOVERNANCE - SHARED GOVERNANCE PROVIDES THE PROFESSIONAL NURSE AUTONOMY AND SETS A STANDARD FOR EXCELLENCE FOR ACCOUNTABLE AND CARING NURSING PRACTICE. THROUGH A SERIES OF NURSING RETREATS OVER SEVERAL YEARS, A STRATEGIC PLAN FOR SHARED GOVERNANCE WAS FINALIZED, ASSESSMENT OF THE SHARED GOVERNANCE WAS COMPLETED AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CHANGE WERE ANALYZED. A REVISED SHARED GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE CONTINUED ITS ROLL OUT IN 2016. THIS PROVIDES CLINICAL PROFESSIONAL NURSES A VOICE IN DECISION-MAKING THAT CREATES A POSITIVE IMPACT ON THE QUALITY OF PATIENT AND FAMILY CARE. SHARED LEADERSHIP IS ACTUALIZED THROUGH A FORMALIZED STRUCTURE OF COUNCILS, COMMITTEES, AND WORK GROUPS. CLINICAL PROFESSIONAL NURSES HAVE THE ABILITY TO FACILITATE RECOMMENDATIONS AND MAKE DECISIONS THAT PERTAIN TO CLINICAL CARE, QUALITY IMPROVEMENT, AND PROFESSIONAL NURSING PRACTICE. EXCELA HEALTH'S CLINICAL PROFESSIONAL NURSES ASSUME FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR NURSING PRACTICE WHILE PARTICIPATING IN STRONG COLLEGIAL RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER DISCIPLINES IN THE PLANNING AND DELIVERY OF PATIENT CARE. FOR EXCELA HEALTH'S EFFORTS ... ...IN QUALITY, SAFETY AND CARE PROVISION, EXCELA HEALTH WAS RECOGNIZED THROUGH THE FOLLOWING AWARDS AND ACCOLADES 1. THE EXCELA HEALTH HEART CENTER ACHIEVED MISSION: LIFELINE STEMI RECEIVING CENTER CERTIFICATION ON JUNE 30, 2017, THROUGH THE AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION AND THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF CARDIOLOGY ACCREDITATION SERVICES.
