Ensuring staff confidence in a complex ambulatory environment
Increased patient preference for access and convenience in an outpatient setting has led to high demand for the services ambulatory surgery centers can provide. The breadth of services continues to expand and increase in complexity, thus requiring a deeper skillset for caregivers. HealthStream offers a number of solutions to help health leaders simplify processes, mitigate risk and ensure clinical competency.

Continually increasing rates of outpatient surgery
In 1985, 85% of all procedures were performed on an inpatient basis. Today, that figure has nearly reversed, and almost 77% of outpatient procedures are performed in an ambulatory setting. Patients are increasingly knowledgeable and prefer the access and convenience of the outpatient setting.
When lengths of stay are closer to three hours than three days, it’s more important than ever to increase clinical competence and improve patient communication.
In partnership with industry leaders, such as ASCA (Ambulatory Surgery Center Association), HealthStream has provided ASCs across the country with content and education specific to current regulatory requirements and standards in ASC care—all while offering relevant CE credits to ensure clinical competencies.
