I have been using in person interviews and telehealth medicine reaching out to some patients randomly about their birth experience. |
|
|
|
|
||||
|
This is a collection of the qualitative data I have this far. I will create a bar of the outcomes for some of the questions, like question number 2. |
|
|
|
|||||
|
One of the items that I need to work on, is time management, for team members. Aside from these interviews, we need to be mindful about discharge timings, which affects the Length of stay. |
||||||||
|
This is time consuming, which is expected. Patients are given resources for PMH via email or a handout.
Tools used for qualitative data: Survey EHR Interviews in person Telehealth
Quantitative data: Number of people trained. |
