Learn MoreThis blog bost is the second in a series excerpting our article, “Pandemic Crisis Reveals Need for ‘New Normal’ When It Comes to Cross-Training: An Interview with Trisha Coady, Senior Vice President & General Manager of Clinical Solutions, HealthStream.”
“When elective surgeries stopped, people who were furloughed at ambulatory surgery centers for example were brought into hospitals,” she says. “These were people that may have never worked in a medical-surgical or critical care unit. At the same time, we also heard that unit secretaries and nursing students were being trained to provide basic care coordination, similar to unlicensed personnel. In essence, we had to think about how we could cross-train or upskill healthcare workers to effectively care for patients at a higher level of acuity than what they were accustomed to.”
The curricula HealthStream quickly curated were therefore bundled to address the cascading needs of healthcare organizations across many settings:
“All of this had to be done within days to weeks,” Coady recalls. “Leaders had to quickly assess who had the necessary competencies to move from sub-acute to critical care, and determine how to backfill their sub-acute departments, as well as how to staff testing sites. The effort was monumental.”
“The team at HealthStream, along with a number of generous, thought-leading firms, showed such a tremendous commitment to getting these 170+ free resources quickly launched across the country. EBSCO Health, nThrive, American Academy of Critical Care Nurses (AACN), Sigma, echelon, and Skillsoft all provided their time and expertise to our community of healthcare organizations.”
The uptake was widespread. In just over a month, HealthStream recorded over 1,500,000 enrollments of its cross-training bundles and COVID-specific, customer-authored courses across more than 4,000 facilities.
