Ready made documentation tips: who wants 'em

[Deleted User][Deleted User]
in CDI Talk Archive
We're considering creating a toolkit of documentation improvement tips that could be used to send to physicians on a weekly (or whenever) basis.
Would this be something CDI departments would want?

If you could email ACDIS Associate Director Melissa Varnavas mvarnavas@acdis.org with your response that would be great! We'll use your input to make the argument that such an item is warranted.

Any tips for what you'd like to see included are appreciated also!

    Would strongly recommend. I have probably 20 completed (though older ones need updating to remain consistent with the 'brand' or feel look that took time to develop).

    Might want to consider a couple of formats -- longer/more detailed -- my specialty :) -- as well as essentially 'one liners'. The one liners are particularly good for rotation on some of these electronic announcement boards that are seen increasingly & found in medical staff lounges/cafeterias/etc.

    Have attached an example of what I've done for the longer.
    Shared previously a slide show I used 2012 for CDI week as an example for the short version.

    Absolutely would love them . We are a CDI Team of two and do not have the time to make up these tips to go over with physicians. Any help is appreciated.
