Hospitals track healthcare professionals adherence of to hand hygiene and PPE compliance to improve patient outcomes. To do so, infection prevention technicians are tasked with observing and recording compliance.
Infection prevention (IP) technicians manually recorded hand hygiene (HH) and personal protective equipment (PPE) compliance of physicians, nurses and hospital staff on paper.
IP technicians recorded results to a static spreadsheet, summing the results each quarter.
WynHouse developed and piloted a mobile application and analytics dashboard. The digital tool increases data accuracy and collection by reducing errors and automating the data recoding process.
The digital tool empowers IP technicians to survey more of the hospital with greater accuracy, allowing hospital leadership to make data-driven decisions. The hospitals using the tool have seen an increase in compliance. And better infection prevention means better outcomes for patients.
