Jewish Home and Hospital Lifecare System plans use of innovative approach to develop customized applications for Senior Resident Housing via Misys-CPR™ / Misys-CPOE™

October 2004:  The Jewish Home and Hospital Lifecare System (JHH), New York City, NY -- JHH continues to demonstrates significant strides and innovation for achieving greater ROI of their EHR system by leveraging it in a customized manner with their senior resident living facility (Kittay House).  The Kittay House is a division of the Bronx facility at JHH. 

 

In September 2004, NOA was engaged to provide customized development of the Misys-CPR™ / Misys-CPOE™ (formerly: Patient1®) system in order to leverage the organic functionality of that system in order to provide for functionality required at JHH to manage operations of their Kittay House, a senior resident living apartment facility.  By combining the strengths of the organic tool set within Misys-CPR™ along with NOA’s best-demonstrated-practices, JHH was able to achieve the desired functionality by using an existing software investment in order to maximize ROI. 

The scope of the customized functionality developed thus far by NOA includes the following:

  • Logging of inquiries regarding available housing applicants

  • Prospective resident application tracking

  • Registration and visit creation of residents

  • (ADT) transfer processing to handle apartment / room changes

  • LOA functionality for visits to the hospital, sub-acute unit or home visits

  • Dietary and equipment documentation

  • Clinical base line assessments and medication history

The project management support has been provided by NOA consultants (Brenda Rollins, Jeanie Eckmann, MT (ASCP) and Cary Negley). The progress thus far since the project began in September 2004 represents a significant accomplishment by The Jewish Home and Hospital Lifecare System.

 

Congratulations to The Jewish Home and Hospital Lifecare System for continuing to demonstrate quality and excellence towards community health by using the Misys CPR™ / Misys CPOE™ (Patient1®) system as an integrated electronic health record.
