Description

Aims for Improvement

  • We worked with the antimicrobial stewardship team on the rollout of a new digital platform encompassing antibiotic prescribing guidelines and institutional antibiograms with userfriendly features such as mobile accessibility and clear selection menus.
  • Our goal was to increase provider awareness and use of institutional guidelines by at least 25% with the ultimate hope of improving antimicrobial stewardship (measured by frequency of broad-spectrum antibiotic ordering) for the hospital within the calendar year.
