To innovate means to look at things with fresh eyes—to see new patterns and possibilities. The structure that Nemours has put in place to care for children and families, our patient- and family-centered Model of Care, has created a system that can anticipate and respond to multi-faceted needs of children. Enhanced by our technological capabilities, Nemours is intent on transforming children’s health care.
From the very beginning, innovation has always been a driving factor for our organization to achieve on behalf of the child, more than was ever thought possible.
The technology we use, the environments where care takes place and the mediums for sharing information with families all over the world are all innovations that Nemours has fostered in order to create a better system of children’s health.
A powerful combination to deliver excellent care
When it comes to delivering excellence in children’s health care, quality and safety are two of our most important ingredients. NemoursOne (our fully integrated electronic medical record system) enables an environment where all patient data can be captured, monitored and used to continuously improve the health of children in our care and beyond. In every pediatric specialty we provide, we will be able to track outcomes and results, using this information to enhance our research efforts and implement better treatments, and improve the safety of care as well as the experience for our patients and families.
Our advanced electronic capabilities have eliminated prescription error rates throughout our system, allowed us to track Body Mass Index for all patients to chart our obesity initiatives and improved communication among our clinicians, our referring physicians and patient families. The possibilities are limitless. As we further develop these capabilities, we are confident that the quality and safety of the health experience we deliver to children in our care will also continue to improve.
