The team operationalizing usage of Dynamic Health has broadened their scope to include supporting use of evidence at the point of care, across nursing and allied health, and within policies and other guidance materials Interprofessional Practice and Learning (IPPL) leads or collaborates on. This means we’re back with Dynamic Health Round-ups after a summer hiatus with a new name – IPPL Clinical Policy and Practice.
Round-up posts will keep you informed about implementation and use of Dynamic Health at Nova Scotia Health, highlight any new priority projects and events, and updates to our Workplace Notes and Custom Workplace Skills. We’ll also highlight new publications we’re supporting and maintaining including policies, clinical practice support pages, clinical resources on the intranet and clinical learning modules.
Read on to get caught up on what we’ve been up to over the summer months, so you are ready for Fall!
The IPPL Policy and Practice Team continues to work through our policy document cleanup, focusing on former DHA guidance documents in OP3. To date we have issued updates on Chest Tubes and Nasogastric Tubes. We’re finishing up our Pain Assessment and Documentation items and will soon be focused on Urinary Catheters. Watch for updates on the Intranet’s Clinical Resources page, under Memos and Updates.
Nursing Leadership and Practice Points are due to health services managers in October! Make sure you’ve created a Dynamic Health personal account and have exported your points. If you haven’t made a personal account yet, it’s easy to do through the in-app pop-up running in Dynamic Health until the end of October. Learn more about setting up a personal account, earning and exporting CE credits, and consult our table on how Dynamic Health credits and activity convert to Leadership and Practice Points in the Dynamic Health support guide.
In recognition of these health promotion events, we encourage you to engage with the curated list of Dynamic Health content below.
