This conference registered a total of 1,496 abstracts of medical quality improvement activities from 190 hospitals. Of these, 292 teams were selected for the narrative presentation, and 6 teams were selected for the 'Award Oral Presentation'.
The public relations team of Hallym University Medical Center (presenter Lee Kun-ho) presented under the theme of 「Hallym Curation, a smart platform for patient education—Innovation of patient experience and improvement of work efficiency of medical staff」, and won the Excellence Award in the 'Core Story Announcement'. Hallym University Medical Center developed Hallym Curation, a platform for providing customized educational materials for patients based on medical information (EMR), for the first time in Korea in May 2022 and applied it to five affiliated hospitals. More than 500 educational materials dedicated to Hallim Curation were produced, and 615,000 customized educational materials were provided to patients and guardians by September this year. In particular, Hallim Curation is highly convenient based on Kakao Alert Talk, tracks patients' medical records, automatically recommends customized educational materials, and is equipped with a prescription-based automatic delivery function to greatly improve the work efficiency of medical staff.
In addition, the social work team of Hallym University Gangnam Sacred Heart Hospital (Hospital President Lee Dong-jin), the social work team of Hallym University Hangang Sacred Heart Hospital (Hospital President Heo Jun), and the general affairs team of Hallym University Dongtan Sacred Heart Hospital (Hospital President Han Sung-woo) each won the Excellence Award for the oral presentation.
Hallym University Gangnam Sacred Heart Hospital Social Work Team (presenter Baek Jeong-yeon, medical social worker) announced the results of 'Development of a digital-based customized medical social welfare platform (app) for patients in need of care after discharge.'" In line with the Ministry of Health and Welfare's policy to expand community integration care, Hallim University Gangnam Sacred Heart Hospital developed the nation's first medical social welfare platform (app) to help discharged patients and their guardians grasp the medical social welfare resources they need at any time and anywhere at a glance and prepare for a different daily life. Based on EMR, this platform provides personalized information on public and private welfare services such as housing, care, and treatment costs based on medical information, social data, and self-inspection results for discharge preparation. Through this, it is contributing to reducing the anxiety and burden experienced by patients and their families in the process of discharge in a super-aged society and strengthening the foundation for support to continue a safe life in the community after discharge.
The Social Work Team (presenter Na Woo-jin, medical social worker) of Hanlim University Kang Sungsim Hospital announced the activity of establishing an integrated treatment support system centered on burn patients from the beginning of treatment to social rehabilitation. The social work team at Hanlim University Kang Sungsim Hospital operated a self-management support project after discharge consisting of a visiting education program and support group meetings for burn patients who returned to the community over three years from 2022. As a result, significant positive changes were identified, including 28.2% improvement in self-management levels, 21.2% improvement in health care self-efficacy, 30.9% increase in social support, and 22.8% decrease in loneliness levels. Through this, we are building an integrated treatment support system that promotes physical recovery and psychological stability by strengthening the self-management capabilities of burn patients and supports stable reintegration in the community.
The general affairs team of Hallym University Dongtan Sacred Heart Hospital (presenter Jeon Jin-young) presented 'Creating a pleasant working environment for employees through proper management of hazardous chemicals and measuring the working environment'. Hallym University Dongtan Sacred Heart Hospital drastically reduced unnecessary substances by investigating and maintaining hazardous chemicals across the hospital, and reduced the risk of exposure to faculty members by applying substitutes, improving ventilation, and maintaining the protective equipment system. In addition, formalin entry, release, and use were computerized to increase management accuracy and work efficiency. In measuring the work environment, the safety and work satisfaction of faculty and staff were greatly improved by strengthening the overall management system, such as achieving all harmful factors below the standard.
Meanwhile, Hallym University Medical Center continues to carry out medical quality improvement activities every year to build a patient-centered hospital culture.
