Empowering Effective Decision-Making with CareEdge™

Every decision made at your organization serves in one of two ways: it either facilitates chaos or it prevents it. In a world where healthcare is more complex than ever, staying ahead of challenges is essential. "Left of bang," a term rooted in military strategy, emphasizes proactive action to avert disaster before it strikes. Hospitals often resemble battlefields as they face relentless threats, from pandemics to staffing shortages. What can your system do to stay "left of bang"? CareEdge™, our digital overlay, is here to empower your team to make informed, effective decisions that prevent chaos and catastrophe.

A New Era of Operational Excellence…

CareEdge™ is a state-of-the-art digital overlay that helps health system leaders achieve informed awareness, enabling them to make better operational decisions, faster. It offers a comprehensive solution that empowers healthcare leaders and staff to identify patterns and trends that would otherwise be invisible and make more informed decisions about patient care and the use of the health system's valuable resources, leading to more efficient operations and an enhanced patient experience.

Staying "Left of Bang" with Informed Awareness

Staying “left of bang” is impossible to sustain without informed awareness. Informed awareness goes beyond situational awareness; it provides a holistic view of retrospective, real-time, and predictive intelligence across the organization. It requires recommended, prioritized actions to drive the best decisions possible.

CareEdge™ was designed to give you informed awareness. While your existing technology might help you gain basic situational awareness, it often stops there, leaving you vulnerable to your most impactful challenges. Even if you’re able to navigate real-time scenarios, you might not be serving the system-wide or long-term strategy. The informed awareness that CareEdge™ facilitates enables you to break out of these limitations and conquer your organization’s journey. With it, your team gains the holistic understanding necessary to tackle both day-to-day challenges and achieve long-term goals.

By keeping your organization “left of bang”, CareEdge™ sets your organization up for sustainable success by freeing up bandwidth and resources for those big-picture goals that previously seemed out of reach.

Using Your Data Effectively

"We don't need MORE data, we need to know what to DO with it." This is the type of assertion we’ve heard repeatedly from hospitals and health systems across the country. This feedback drove the development of CareEdge™, equipping you with the tools to prioritize, interpret and use your data effectively. Mountains of data serve no purpose if not used effectively for decision-making. CareEdge™ aggregates data from your existing technology investments and helps you prioritize and act upon it.

CareEdge™ fosters keen awareness of insights about the past and present of your organization. This type of data aggregation gets the right intelligence in front of the right people, but how do you harness its power? CareEdge™ also provides prescriptive insights, so you can ACT on your data, not just see it. These insights fuel effective decisions and consequentially, effective actions.

Facilitate System-Wide Alignment:

Decision-makers often fall out of sync due to limited visibility and lack of coordination, leading to “islands of excellence” where one area of the organization thrives often to the detriment of the rest of the system. Achieving system-wide success requires system-wide alignment. Individual success means little when the organization isn’t thriving as a whole. CareEdge™ offers holistic visibility, helping leaders work toward the goal of "systemness" and act more harmoniously. It facilitates alignment across every area and level of a healthcare organization, ensuring everyone is informed, aware, and working towards the same strategic goals.

Making the Right Decisions for Your Organization

Informed awareness isn't just a feature of CareEdge™; it's a cultivated mindset framing each decision within your system. It serves as the guiding principle for how you identify, solve, and prevent problems, improving virtually every aspect of your operations. Informed, effective decisions are the key to long-term, sustainable success. No matter how good your strategy is, it's upheld by the daily decisions your team makes.

Your patients deserve the best, so put the right people in their corner: informed and well-prepared decision-makers. CareEdge™ is the tool you need to empower your organization to act quickly and effectively, ensuring the best care for your patients.
