With the multiple priorities of quality of care, patient safety, productivity, and staffing, patient experience focus may go by the wayside. Improving the patient experience takes initiative, dedication and time. This session will share how a 36 hospital health care system, and specifically two hospitals, maintained the focus on patient experience through weekly meetings with key departments. It will describe how departments were selected, who participated, and an agenda that helped drive intense focus and action. It will also describe the review of the patient voice beyond the survey, including through leader rounding, discharge phone calls, and journey mapping. An overview of the challenges and obstacles that were overcome in order to maintain the focus and attendance of the weekly meetings, and the successful outcomes, not only in HCAHPS scores, but more importantly to patient engagement and caregiver engagement will be discussed.

This webinar will describe methods and lessons learned to date from a pilot project designed to assess the implementation and use of the new CAHPS Patient Narrative Elicitation Protocol (NEP) in several New York-Presbyterian (NYP) ambulatory care practices. The NEP is a structured sequence of 5 open-ended questions that can be used as a supplemental item set with CG-CAHPS or other patient experience surveys, in order to elicit complete and balanced accounts of ambulatory care from a representative sample of patients. The webinar will review research evidence regarding the effectiveness of the NEP in eliciting actionable information that can be used by clinicians and practices for improving patient experiences, and will discuss early results of the pilot project to collect the NEP as part of routine patient survey operations at NYP and to develop new feedback methods for reporting survey results and narrative comments back to clinicians and practice leaders.

Unconscious bias, also known as implicit social cognition, refers to the attitudes or stereotypes that affect our understanding, actions, and decisions in an unconscious manner. The implicit associations we harbor in our subconscious cause us to have feelings that manifest our behavior toward patients and colleagues based on race, ethnicity, culture, age, sexual orientation, religion, disability, socio-economic status and appearance. Attendees of this webinar will gain relevant understanding on how personal and system level awareness and accountability for biases can improve organization-wide performance and ultimately, the patient experience.

It is critical for patient experience professionals to better understand the mindset of the people they are most trying to engage. Social media crowd sourcing was used to do something different -- ask physicians how they feel about patient experience initiatives, and what it would take to engage them more. Hundreds of responses from emergency medicine physicians about patient experience concepts and initiatives were captured. Webinar participants will walk away with a new perspective and concrete examples of what patient experience professionals can immediately implement in order to better accomplish their organizational objectives.

For most hospitals, the patient experience begins with their online presence. Patients and families utilize the hospital's website and social media (SM) outlets to help understand the system and manage expectations. As SM expands as a resource for communicating, information and gallery sharing, and for other needs, hospitals are challenged with the task of how to handle the potential pitfalls and hazards of the medium beyond their website. This webinar will look at communication and SM from the lens of a multigenerational workforce, exploring how each generation prefers to communicate in different ways. It will discuss how each platform can benefit an organization, and provide examples of how employees underestimated the impact their online presence and posts would have on themselves and to their organization. Participants will learn different avenues a hospital can use to engage employees to create policies that benefit the patients as well as the employees and organization.
