With its vast network, Ardent Health faced the inherent challenge of standardizing resuscitation training across numerous sites to improve efficiency and competence in resuscitation skills of their staff. The variety in training methods and time management presented an opportunity to streamline life-saving procedures. This called for a unified approach to boost staff competence and reduce time away from the bedside.
Ardent Health partnered with HealthStream and the American Red Cross to launch digital courses accessible from anywhere. This initiative aimed to: Standardize training across all facilities, Reduce time for staff to master BLS, ALS, and PALS, Increase staff confidence in resuscitation procedures, and Implement robust tracking to monitor training outcomes.
Through this transformative effort, Ardent Health not only elevated its resuscitation training but also fortified its position as a healthcare leader. By embracing modern, standardized training methods, Ardent continues to deliver superior patient care in every critical moment.
With over 20,000 clinicians and more than 200 care sites, Ardent Health, an acute care health system including medical and surgical hospitals, excels in service and patient experience delivery across Idaho, Kansas, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas.
