The purpose of this assignment is to examine how clinical decision support systems (CDSS) can address disparities in health care. You will develop a presentation outlining task force goals and relevant information for implementing a CDSS (sepsis clinical decision support system integrated into the EHR, specifically an EHR-based sepsis early-warning/decision-support tool), to improve access to quality care for all patients. In your role as a nurse informaticist, you have been asked by the chief informatics officer (CIO) to evaluate a clinical decision-making tool to be used by your organization's stakeholders. The selected CDSS will be used to address the current state of access to quality care and information literacy in your organization. Part 1: Presentation for the Task Force You will need to create a presentation for the initial meeting of the task force you will lead for this initiative. Prepare a 10-12-slide PowerPoint presentation for the first task force meeting to include these agenda items uploaded as supporting resource: 1 Introduction:State the meeting objectives clearly. 2.Reason for the Project: (i)Explain the organizational need, reason for the project, rationale for implementing a clinical decision-making tool in your organization. (ii) Discuss how CDSS can improve access to quality care and information literacy in your organization. 3. Task Force Selection: (i) Explain why you have been selected to lead this project and the various roles represented in the group. (ii) Explain the role of each stakeholder and why they were selected to serve on this task force. 4. Identify CDSS to Be Implemented: (i) Conduct research and identify one popular CDSS system used in the health care industry, include a description of the CDSS system. (ii) Discuss how this system addresses access to quality care and information literacy within the organization. 5. Crucial Functionality: (i) Explain the crucial functions of the selected CDSS including why it is essential to the clinical workflow. (ii) Explain the impact of the CDSS on health information exchange, interoperability, and integration of health care. 6. Information Communication Technology (ICT): (i) Review the information and communication technologies (in the electronic health record, mobile health, and telehealth systems). (ii) Select one communication technology and discuss how a CDSS can be incorporated to improve quality of care. (iii) Describe how communication technologies support documentation of care and communication among providers and patients at all system levels. 7. Task Force Communication: Discuss how communication technology will be used to communicate with the task force members during the project. Include what tools will be used (e.g., Microsoft Teams, Email, Meetings, Shared Folders). 8. Next Steps: Discuss the next steps of the task force. Do they need to review content on CDSS chosen? Project plan?

Join us for a keynote on "Equitable Sepsis Detection Through EHR Decision Support," where we will explore the critical need for rapid sepsis recognition and the role of EHR-based early-warning systems. Our task force aims to build a safer, more equitable healthcare pathway by aligning on project goals and defining equity and literacy standards. With insights from a diverse team, including nurse informaticists and bedside RNs, we will discuss how real-time data and patient education can close...
