Transforming patient pathway, workflow & outcome

Format: hybrid

Dates: 2024 / 2025

The Transforming Patient Pathway, Workflow & Outcome learning pathway is a new educational grant covering the itinerary of a surgical patient from hospital admission, pre-surgical care, surgery, postoperative and ICU care, to discharge and home monitoring.

It aims to facilitate understanding on how we can help improve patient outcome throughout their itinerary from admission to discharge through continuous and remote monitoring, and how we can transform patient pathway to cope with current challenges of surge capacity, healthcare professionals’ fatigue and shortage of OR/ICU nurse.
