Wouldn’t it be great if your boss encouraged you to come up with new ideas and then actually implemented them? It’s happening at Ohio Health through a unique program called the Ohio Health Research and Innovation Institute that aims to improve patient care by empowering its employees.
For example, nurse Tabitha Campbell identified the need for a device that would help with patient mobility. The Institute helped Campbell find an engineer to work with and the result is the Overbed Trapeze, a device that is now installed in 44 rooms at Grant Medical Center’s Bone and Joint Center.
