CGCH GREAT CATCH- CHRISTINA LAFON, IP

Christina Lafon noted that although CHG treatments were being performed daily, they often were not conducted within the recommended 24-hour timeframe. This observation led to the discovery that alerts were not being sent to the Epic Brain, an issue that arose after a recent Epic upgrade.

Addressing this problem not only alerted nurses to the correct procedures but also helped identify opportunities to enhance the electronic medical record system, thereby better supporting the efforts of bedside staff.
