Finding Joy in the Middle Ground
As multiple global crises emerge, potential nurse leaders continue to
race against time and clinical safety to find balance in the middle of the
battleground. In this unique crossroad, they must decide to step up for
their clinical teams, community, families, or professional associations.
This presentation will outline the journey of an internationally educated
volunteer leader as she journeys through the tides of the global
pandemic and other unforeseen crises. Successful global strategies on
innovative leadership and creative education will be shared and highlight
how true joy propels the heart of an emerging leader.
Learning Objectives:
» Define creative resilience in action.
» Discuss how true joy propels the emerging leader in the middle ground.
» Identify successful global strategies to transcend joy and engage your
growing team.

Understanding Health Equity Through
Clinical Storytelling
The quality of patient care is significantly enhanced when culturally
empathetic clinicians center their patients' needs. Narrative reflection,
or clinical storytelling, offers a pathway to health equity by prioritizing
compassion and the patient's perspective in delivering patient-centered
care. As the pandemic continues to amplify socioeconomic inequities
resulting from structural systems that maintain these disparities,
narrative medicine exercises help clinicians and students confront their
unconscious biases and connect to their practice on a more empathetic
and emotional level. In this session, we will discuss historical precedence
and the social determinants of health, and focus on how quality care
delivery requires that clinicians listen to and respect their patients'
individual narratives, backgrounds, and experiences. We will explore how
narrative reflective exercises help clinicians to better understand their
patients and themselves, improve relationships, grow personally and
professionally, and pursue a more humanistic medical practice.
Learning Objectives:
» Define narrative medicine and how it allows clinicians to join their
patients in illness, recognize their own personal journeys through
medicine.
» Identify the root systems and cultural biases that inhibit health equity.
» Practice narrative medicine exercises to deliver empathetic,
compassionate, and patient-focused care.

The ambulatory surgery center (ASC) relationship to inpatient hospitals
can be challenging when it comes to operational decisions. Patient
location, block time assignment, and start times (whether inpatient
or outpatient) are only a few decisions among a mirage of others to
consider when making an ASC profitable. ASCs provide quality care
at a reduced cost while achieving high rates of employee and patient
satisfaction. Bumped to the top of the list while we navigate COVID-19 is
system strategy to liberate inpatient OR time for high acuity patients by
assignment of lower acuity patients to satellite ambulatory locations. To
accomplish this, the need was identified to shift outpatient procedures
from inpatient venues to ambulatory sites. To support this need, the
operationalization of an extended recovery unit (ERU) located inside
a licensed ASC was developed. This presentation will show the ASC
ERU model, patient population, management, inpatient impact postimplementation,
and lessons learned.
Learning Objectives:
» Define inpatient acuity opportunity with ambulatory ERU
implementation.
» Identify key system performance metrics with assignment of surgical
location.
» Describe the extended recovery operational model and assess
transferability.

Preparing for OR Renovations - New
Technology, Sustained Volumes, Staying
on Budget
Incorporating new codes and technology in OR renovations while
working with multidisciplinary teams can be quite a challenge, not to
mention keeping volumes steady coming out of the era of pandemicdriven
cancellations. This session will describe plans for OR renovations,
including research into new products, technologies, design teams, and
architects. Learn how this facility offset volumes while having two ORs
down for a period of 12-14 weeks.
Learning Objectives:
» Describe the importance of planning prior to renovations.
» Identify tools in your institution that can help with the renovation
process.
» Identify opportunities for maintaining budgeted volume during
renovations with less ORs.
