#1
[b]Wooster Community Hospital Health System[/b] (Wooster, OH), an independent, nonprofit healthcare system, recently reported a projected annual savings of nearly 1,600 hours in documentation time and a reduction of more than 7.5 million clicks for its nursing staff. A new case study demonstrates how the health system collaborated with the [b]KLAS Arch Collaborative[/b] and MEDITECH to leverage EHR personalization and workflow enhancements in [b]Expanse[/b], reengaging nurses in EHR governance and improving efficiency. 

After KLAS Arch Collaborative survey results indicated a post-pandemic decrease in nurses’ engagement, Wooster Community Hospital Health System launched the Free Up Nurses’ Time, or FUN Time, initiative. The effort empowered nurses to submit suggestions for workflow improvements, leveraging the Expanse EHR’s flexibility to solve documentation and charting challenges.
