Health ICT: New Name, Same Mission

2021年，卫生信息通信技术加入了堪萨斯卫生商业集团. However, 工作和使命仍然是一样的:帮助提供者改进识别, prevention, and management of individuals with diabetes, hypertension, and high cholesterol.

由疾病控制中心(CDC)提供资金, we collaborate with healthcare providers to develop team-based care approaches to care delivery in which non-physician team members are empowered to handle the more predictable, routine tasks in patient care to ensure consistency and to allow the physician to focus on the more severe patient issues.

Since 2016, we have been assisting providers in Wichita and across the state by providing funding and free technical assistance. 请参阅下面的图表，以更好地了解我们的质量改进过程. Contact us to learn more!

Resources for Team-Based Care

在医疗保健实践中实施质量改进计划时, there’s no need to re-invent the wheel. Below is a list of of best practices.

与患者健康的社会决定因素(SDoH)相关的因素可以发挥同样大的作用, often times bigger, than the clinic care they receive. 为了确定患者的需求，可能需要SDoH筛查工具. 它们有很多可用的，其中一些比其他的更适合某些环境. 点击这里查看许多可用的SDoH筛选工具的比较列表.

Holistic Care Providers & Resources

在治疗患者时，重要的是要全面解决他们的健康问题. Holistic care is a comprehensive health management approach to improve the condition of mind, emotions, and behavior of patients with diabetes to better regulate blood glucose levels and improve quality of life. 整体护理关注的是人的整体体验和状况, both physically, emotionally, socially, culturally, and spiritually, 而且不仅考虑到疾病对病人的影响, but also on the patient’s family and community. Holistic care providers and resources in Sedgwick County and across the state of Kansas are:

Diabetes Prevention and Management

糖尿病的识别、治疗和转诊最好是团队合作. By allowing non-physician team members, such as nurses, medical assistants, or pharmacists, 医生可以专注于更急性和严重的情况.

Hypertension Control

Controlling a patient’s hypertension is one of the most effective live-prolonging therapies in medicine. 为了协助医生和她的护理团队, 对病人来说，在诊所外检查血压是很重要的.

We’ve developed a partnership with the Wichita Fire Department and Sedgwick County Emergency Medical Service (EMS) to perform trained blood pressure checks for any individual, 24/7/365. This handout, 哪些可以用您的诊所徽标和患者门户网站信息免费定制, 为病人提供所有消防局和急救站的地图, as well as a blood pressure tracking card to record their readings and return them to their provider.

Pharmacy

Pharmacists are an often under-utilized source of expertise when helping patients prevent or manage chronic disease. 当被授权在他们的执照上工作时, 药剂师可以改善病人的健康状况, 同时大大减轻了医生的负担.

根据医生和药剂师之间的正式协议, called Collaborative Practice Agreements (CPAs), physicians develop a protocol for how the pharmacist can care for patients with specific conditions. Learn more about how a CPA works, 听听一位以这种方式与药剂师合作的医生的意见. 通过观看下面的录音来了解更多信息.

Community Health Workers

A Community Health Worker (CHW) is a frontline public health worker who is a trusted member of and/or has an unusually close understanding of the community served. This trusting relationship enables the worker to serve as a liaison/link/intermediary between health/social services and the community to facilitate access to services and improve the quality and cultural competence of service delivery.

A CHW also builds individual and community capacity by increasing health knowledge and self-sufficiency through a range of activities such as outreach, community education, informal counseling, social support and advocacy.
