Structures, Strategies, and Initiatives to Address ED Boarding Challenges

Boarding of patients in the Emergency Department (ED) is increasingly common. Hospitalists are often the next clinicians to care for boarding patients, and often lead hospital committees for readmissions, patient safety, throughput, and utilization management. In this webinar, three members of the SHM Practice Management Committee will discuss structures, strategies, and initiatives to address ED boarding and how to optimize care for patients while boarded in the ED.

SHM's Clinical Quick Talks

In light of the busy clinical services and demands on hospitalists’ schedules, it is often difficult to carve out time to prepare short lectures for residents and students. To meet this need, SHM's Education Committee created a library of quick talks designed to be succinct (given in less than 10 minutes) for use during teaching rounds, a brief sit-down session, or topic review. Access to this library is free for active SHM members, and nonmembers can subscribe (3 years for $199).
