Practice Charting
CMIO Practice Charting is an additional opportunity for CMIO end users to practice dual charting (in existing charts and in Connect Care) on real patients, during or after real appointments. CMIO Practice Charting does not replace CMIO Prescriber Shadow Charting, it is an additional opportunity for CMIO end users to practice in the system. CMIO Practice Charting is available to those departments and end users identified by their local leadership.
Medical leaders will identify clinical areas, sites and/or individuals that would benefit from CMIO Practice Charting, targeting prescriber areas/sites/individuals who were unable to attend other readiness events, including CMIO Prescriber Shadow Charting, are unsure of how to document, or are requesting extra practice.
Note that CMIO Prescriber Shadow Charting targets particular high acuity and high volume workflows and is not available in all clinical areas, so many prescribers will not have an opportunity to participate in CMIO Prescriber Shadow Charting.
The CMIO will coordinate with Medical Informatics Leads (MILs), Super Users (SUs) and the Training Team to schedule CMIO Practice Charting sessions. The ACMIO and CMIO Practice Charting team will ensure access is provisioned, that the technical requirements are in place and that the SUs are prepared.
Clinic days with fewer appointments are ideal to allow sufficient time for the CMIO Practice Charting process.
It is recommended that each participant dual-charts on at least 2 to 3 patients for optimal benefit.
CMIO Practice Charting
Supported by MILs, SUs and virtual drop-in centres staffed by the Training Team.
CMIO Practice Charting is conducted in the PLY environment.
A SU will meet participants onsite to support them with CMIO Practice Charting. This activity can occur during or after clinic appointments.
Issues encountered will be raised with the IT on-call support resource and, if needed, the SU will submit a ticket. The virtual training drop-in centre and MILs are available for additional support.
The length of each session will vary based on the amount of charting each provider typically does during their clinic or rounding and how many of these charts they plan to dual chart on.
