Tired of drowning in documentation? 🌊🙋🏼♀️🛟 4️⃣Signs your OR needs a documentation overhaul – and how to begin 🪧1️⃣Frequent Errors Frequent issues such as mismatched procedure codes, incomplete documentation, and the improper use of preference cards can create ripple effects throughout the OR. These challenges contribute to scheduling errors, supply disruptions, and delays, ultimately affecting efficiency and revenue. 💡Solution: Streamline your documentation with AORN Syntegrity’s Procedure List. By standardizing procedure codes, you can improve scheduling accuracy, ensure the correct preference card is utilized, and enhance coordination across all phases of care. 🪧2️⃣ Overburdened OR Staff Periop teams are often understaffed and overextended, leading to stress, burnout, and even attrition. Support is essential to preserving their well-being and maintaining high-quality patient care. 💡Solution: Automate redundant documentation tasks with AORN Syntegrity. By focusing on what’s truly required for regulatory compliance and national practice standards, nurses are freed up to assist where they’re needed most. 🪧3️⃣ Poor Data Accessibility for Decision-Making In the OR, every second counts.

This empowers teams to make faster, more informed decisions. 🪧4️⃣ Challenges with Compliance and Accreditation Compliance with regulatory and accreditation standards such as Joint Commission requirements and CMS guidelines is non-negotiable.
