Activity Summary

Learn how an accelerator program involves nurses in designing innovative care models. The High Reliability Operations Center (HROC) merges high-impact teams to create situational awareness and effective communication, improve patient flow, ensure adequate resources, and detect patient deterioration. Presenters discuss how modern design is used to address the ergonomic needs of team members while promoting an open-air environment that limits noise, yet allows ease of communication. A virtual tour of the HROC helps the audience visualize the synergy of the team to enhance patient safety.
