Exploratory study of nursing home factors associated with successful implementation of clinical decision support tools for pressure ulcer prevention.
The researchers determined those factors that are associated with nursing homes' success in implementing the On-Time quality improvement (QI) for pressure ulcer prevention program and integrating health information technology (HIT) tools into practice at the unit level. They found that after at least 9 months of implementation effort, 36% of the nursing homes achieved level III of the On-Time QI-HIT program. They concluded that the learning from On-Time QI offers several lessons associated with facility factors that contribute to high level of implementation of a QI-HIT program in a nursing home.
