"Our workforce is highly engaged and empowered with providing ideas on how to improve patient care. The Baldrige excellence framework is not to create pockets of excellence, but organizational excellence. You can only achieve that through collaboration. Collaboration is the underlying theme throughout our journey and it is critical to our continued success."

"It certainly pushed us to think about how we would treat pain differently. I think initially when we started out, we were looking at the way to review those patients who had abuse potential. But that led us very quickly into much broader conversations about how we treat pain. How do we look for alternatives to opioids? How do we then take that information and provide tools needed to our prescribers?"

"The time savings improves the quality of our employees' day-to-day experience, as well as improving patients' experience, since they receive follow-ups and results quicker."

"This success is a reflection of the commitment to excellence of the people at North York General, where we put our patients first in everything we do. This means exceeding expectations every day. Receiving a Davies Award puts us among a select group of healthcare organizations that have realized the significant quality and safety benefits that health information technology makes possible."

"As a hospitalist, my daily routine is chaotic because I manage many complex patients. NYGH’s custom-designed VTE alert helps me remember to order prophylaxis at the right time for the right patients. It’s a partner in providing safer care."

"We’ve gone up to 1,000 days without a code in non-ICU areas, which is simply remarkable — and not even the stuff of dreams not that many years ago."

"It’s been really rewarding to go through the Davies process because you realize how much you actually have improved care through applying an electronic medical record to your practice."

"I’ve seen more positive changes in the last year than I have seen in the last five years combined. I feel like this a true partnership, and Cerner is embedded here at Genesis and is clearly part of the organization."

"An overarching goal of the Lenexa Fire Department is to be the employer of choice in the region. The LiveWell program and on-site health center are some of the elements that help us attract and retain great talent."

"The incentive program really works. We have employees find out about health issues they are unaware of through the assessment and screenings. Our people see it as the City caring about their well-being."

"Leadership matters in times of transition. Research and our Cerner experience demonstrates time and time again that organizations that focus on people involvement, adoption and leadership are far more successful than those that don’t."

"We would create WWW lists. What are we going to do, who is going to do it and when will it be done. After that, we worked hand in hand for months, listening to their needs. This process created confidence that we were going to live up to our word."

"While the entire Cerner system was user-friendly from the beginning, certain things were making it quite tired, and over time, it generally became very slow. Since the upgrade, the system is faster and more user-friendly than before."

"Now that we are on the latest code level, and with updated infrastructure, the next step is to build the clinical roadmap to help us get more out of the system, and to switch on functionality that will improve efficiency of charting, prescribing and dispensing. We are excited about this new journey ahead of us."

"With CareCompass, we have quick access to more components than before. We have fewer clicks and we are saving time in completing documentation. It is also easy to pick up on new orders."
