We’re excited to announce that Parity Founder Heidi E. Morin, MSN, MBA, RN, FABC is presenting, “Birth is an Outcome, Not a Productivity Metric,” at the Synova Associates LLC Perinatal Conference on Tuesday, Nov. 14.
As a nurse director, Heidi was challenged to think outside the box, which led her to create a new methodology to assess, calculate and trend the nursing resources she needed to care for her units’ OB and NICU patients. This innovative approach allowed her team to assess staffing needs in real-time from an acuity-based and volume perspective. Success of this new methodology led her to secure more labor resources and change budgetary ratios, while reducing overall labor costs and improving patient care delivery. By adopting this methodology, these results have been replicated in many other facilities.
