2008 – 2013 Associate Director, Quality Improvement & Patient Safety, Division of

Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, College of Medicine, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences

Tasked with creating clinical practice assessments and changes in practice based on analysis of quality improvement and patient safety outcomes analyzed data and reported quality and safety via case conferences to the departments and hospital administration created a culture within the perioperative arena that focused on high quality and safe processes and patient care developed evidence based clinical practice guidelines for nursing and medical staffs implemented tests of change for achieving effective quality improvement and patient safety initiatives across the perioperative arena and the enterprise.

Selected achievements which reduced patient harm and saved the hospital thousands of dollars: Reduced severity of peripheral IV infiltrations throughout the perioperative arena resulting in reduced patient harm implemented >95% on time antibiotic prophylaxis for reducing surgical site infections resulting in a reduction of surgical site infections implemented anesthesia inserted CVL checklist which resulted in zero anesthesia inserter related CLABSIs since 2010.

Reviewed data/evidence that was presented to the leadership that surgical site preparation should only be 1 of 2 options (chlorhexidine or duraprep) to reduce surgical site infections. After adoption of these, there was a reduction in SSI’s, primarily in orthopedic and neurosurgical procedures.

Proposed clinical practice assessments and changes in practice based on analysis of quality improvement & patient safety outcomes (e.g., timing of prophylactic antibiotic in operating room). Responsible for reporting quality and safety issues via case conferences to the department and to the hospital administration.
