Important Health Center Context Fill out this section during your planning process | |
|---|---|
Internal Characteristics | |
What are the characteristics of your health center? (rural/urban; other demographic variables, use of expanded care team, culture)? | Hamilton Community Health Network (HCHN) is a FQHC in the Flint MI and surrounding areas with 8 mostly urban sites and 1 small rural site. |
How do interventions and/or workflows need to be adapted to ensure health equity? | SDOH are assessed and barriers addressed for all new patients, annually and when life situations change by protocol at HCHN. Staff must ensure these screening assessments are completed on all patients and all interventions related to SDOH addressed to ensure health equity. |
How complex are the patient interventions to implement (e.g., perceived difficulty of implementation, reflected by duration, scope, radicalness, disruptiveness, and number of steps required)? | Current lack of and transition of staffing will be our most difficult struggle to implementation. Training staff may be disruptive at initiation and training must fit clinic schedule of training times. |
What are key characteristics of the participating setting(s)? | |
External Characteristics | |
What external or environmental supports or threats are there? | |
Treatment Intensification (Combination Therapy) Plan | Treatment Intensification (Combination Therapy) Actual |
Describe Intervention (Select ONE; useBPAA Project Roadmap for ideas on evidence-based strategies) Chosen intervention: Patients with uncontrolled hypertension not on guideline recommended therapy and/or on monotherapy Plan for intervention: Use Azara to identify and cohort patients with uncontrolled HTN and not on guideline therapy or monotherapy to show on patient visit planning report for morning huddle discussion. | Chosen Intervention: Date when implemented: Updates: |
Reach (#/% patients – or providers, for provider-facing interventions – who participated in intervention) | |
Reach of implementers/providers? Planned: 100% of medical site staff will implement the use of PVP and huddle and discuss uncontrolled HTN not on guideline therapy or monotherapy. | Reach of implementers/providers? Actual: |
Reach of patients (# of patients receiving treatment intensification)? Planned:
| Reach of patients (# of patients receiving treatment intensification)? Actual: |
Efficacy (Impact of intervention on important outcomes) | |
How will you measure that your intervention is working? Monitor Azara DRVS for decrease of pts not on guideline therapy and/or monotherapy. | Were you able to accurately measure how your intervention was working? |
What outcomes do you expect? Decrease in 10% of patients with no guideline therapy and/or monotherapy. | What outcomes have you seen? |
How will you ensure your intervention will be effective for your target population? Add this metric to monthly provider site meetings with interventions and expected outcomes. | Did your intervention reach the target population? |
What unintended consequences or outcomes might there be? No movement in metric | What unintended outcomes did you experience? |
Adoption (#/% and representativeness of staff and sites who implemented the intervention) How did clinicians respond to interventions to intensify medication more rapidly/address therapeutic inertia? | |
Who will deliver the intervention (actually do the work)? Include staff and sites, if applicable. Quality Team introduces the planned implementations during the monthly provider meetings and show metric and movement on measure. | Who delivered the intervention? Did they have the skills and time needed to complete the intervention? |
How will you know if clinicians/care teams/sites used the intervention? Decrease in the percent of patients in DRVS on monotherapy and an increase of those on guideline therapy. | What proportion of the planned staff/sites implemented the intervention? Were there any differences between care teams/sites who adopted the intervention best vs. others who did not (e.g., differences in staff types, capacity, etc.)? |
Implementation Fidelity (How closely the staff/sites followed the intervention design, delivered it as intended – also called fidelity to the intervention) | |
How will you know what adaptations or modifications were made during the intervention? Decrease in the percent of patients on DRVS with monotherapy or no guideline therapy. | How did you track modifications during the intervention? |
What might be some of the possible obstacles to consistent implementation? Provider apprehensive in changing prescribing practices? | What were the barriers to consistent intervention implementation? |
What costs and resources (including time and burden, not just money) need to be considered? Staff do not engage in huddle or use PVP to identify and discuss patients to intervene and use interventions. | What costs and resources (including time and burden, not just money) need to be considered? |
How closely did the staff/sites follow the intervention design and deliver as intended? Check all that apply:
Modifications made and other notes: | |
Maintenance (Extent to which intervention is part of routine practices and protocols) | |
What reinforcements will you put in place to sustain the intervention, if effective?
Explain: Reinforcements will include HTN protocols, PVP alerts, training and regular reporting. | What reinforcements did you put into place to sustain the intervention?
Explain: |
How will you spread your intervention and lessons learned? Use monthly site meetings to spread interventions, barriers to implementations and successes. | How will you spread your intervention and lessons learned? |
What are likely modifications or adaptations that will need to be made to sustain the intervention over time (e.g., lower cost, different staff, reduced intensity, different settings)? | |
