Background: Delays in the discharge of the hospital ward patients cause a backlog for new admissions from the Emergency Department, and transfers from the Intensive Care Units and telemetry units.

IMPLEMENTING COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKER PAIRINGS FOR PATIENTS AT HIGH-RISK FOR 30-DAY HOSPITAL READMISSIONS
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: In 2011, ~3.3 million adult 30-day US hospital readmissions generated $41.3 billion in hospital costs. $8.26 billion (20%) of this was considered preventable. Numerous studies demonstrate relationships between hospital readmissions and social determinants of health (SDoH). Lack of education, socioeconomic status, and lack of social support have all been cited as core contributors to […]

IMPROVING REFERRAL RATES OF BABIES WITH NEONATAL ABSTINENCE SYNDROME TO EARLY INTERVENTION
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) occurs when an infant is exposed to chemical substances in utero and consequently withdrawals from the substance(s) after birth. The long-term impact of NAS remains unclear due to confounding by other factors that impact infant health and development, but literature suggests that infants with NAS have motor and cognitive delays […]
