Wolters Kluwer Health, a leading global provider of information for healthcare professionals and students, announced today that Aultman Hospital has selected ProVation® Order Sets, powered by UpToDate® Decision Support, as the hospital's electronic order set solution.
“We are pleased that they have selected ProVation Order Sets, powered by UpToDate Decision Support, to further this mission and provide evidence-based order sets at the point of care.”
Located in Canton, OH, the 808-bed Aultman Hospital is Stark County's largest hospital and largest employer, with 575 physicians in more than 40 medical specialties and a staff of more than 5,000 employees. It is accredited by the Joint Commission and has been recognized with two Hospital Value Index awards, Best in Value and Best in State. Aultman was also granted Magnet recognition by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) for nursing excellence and its Intensive Care Units have earned Beacon Awards from the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN).
ProVation Order Sets, powered by UpToDate Decision Support, is an easily customizable order set authoring and management solution that provides flexible integration into clinical processes to streamline the delivery of standardized care for improved patient safety, outcomes, clinician performance and regulatory compliance. ProVation Order Sets is built upon ProVation Medical's award-winning, clinician-designed technology platform. One of its primary values is the continuous updates to clinical content and medical evidence, including direct links to UpToDate, the resource of choice for more than 450,000 users worldwide.
Central to this capability is the One-Click Updates tool, which leverages UpToDate's Practice Changing Updates, which highlights new recommendations that could potentially change usual clinical practice. Enabled by a unique, structured approach to data management, One-Click Updates alerts end users to evidence that may trigger the need to modify particular order sets. It then enables users to review recommended updates and apply them in a single step across multiple order sets.
UpToDate covers more than 9,000 topics in 17 medical specialties and includes more than 77,000 pages of text and graphics, more than 328,000 Medline references and a drug database. Content is continuously reviewed and updated by physician editors and authors.
In addition to integrated links to UpToDate and other trusted sources of medical evidence, ProVation Order Sets offers the flexibility to link additional clinical resources based upon client needs and preferences. Further, to help facilities achieve the highest possible degree of automation, ProVation Order Sets features vendor-neutral mapping and export capabilities that allows for flexible integration into any facility or vendor EMR or CPOE system.
"Aultman Hospital is an organization dedicated to providing high-quality care, as evidenced by its many awards and recognitions," said Arvind Subramanian, President and CEO, Wolters Kluwer Health Clinical Solutions. "We are pleased that they have selected ProVation Order Sets, powered by UpToDate Decision Support, to further this mission and provide evidence-based order sets at the point of care."
