"My hat’s off to all of the people at the organization that really worked hard to make this happen. Our patients and our community are the people that really benefit from it, and it’s great to see, and it’s great to be part of that."
"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."
"Having this new and improved way of documenting, this new EHR, we are able to provide our patients continuity in their care. We can now see how they are progressing in their treatment."
"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."
"In the future, health care will be about meeting patient where they are — on mobile platforms, via video visits, and through technologies we have not even dreamed of, as much as it will be about the traditional network of hospitals and clinics. We are building a patient portal that will make this vision a reality — a place where we can provide patients what they want and show them the value of truly integrated medical care."

"The first time I heard a child’s life had been saved with CHAMP, I left the room because I needed to tear up in private. It’s was a dream that I’ve had for a long time."
"CHAMP is built with an encrypted cloud database, which allows data entered by the parent to be sent to the EMR daily. Timely communication of physiologic data from parents of fragile, cardiac infants to the Interstage team is a next step in home monitoring."
"We are honored to receive the prestigious Magnet Prize and are very excited that the CHAMP program is being recognized for its innovative use of technology to achieve excellent patient care outcomes."
"The people of Qatar are fortunate to have this type of system. Having a longitudinal, nationwide implementation will definitely foster healthcare and improve outcomes, patient care, academic training and medical research."

"I’m convinced that correctly utilizing an electronic medical record will improve the quality of care for our patients. We will reduce the chances of error, maximize the workflow and make those workflows safer."
"In the first implementation, we recorded almost 300 lessons learned, three digits. By the end, we reduced the lessons learned to one digit, and this is due to communicating the lessons learned with every health center that was scheduled to go live."
"We do not need to repeat examinations. Lab, radiology, examinations across the organizations — the results are visible to clinicians at HMC and PHCC, so that’s a great achievement."
"Cerner Practice Management has really helped us encompass the entire patient experience in one application."
