The design of planning templates and electronic health records can present as a major obstacle to the quality implementation of Person-Centered Recovery Planning. Traditional designs are frequently dominated by problems, pathology, and complex workflows that focus more on the support of billing and compliance rather than on the support of the person and their recovery and life goals.
In contrast, a thoughtfully designed EHR can facilitate person-centered practice by increasing the focus on key recovery concepts, facilitating dialogue between providers and persons served, and generating the co-creation of meaningful plans to help shape the person’s recovery. By elucidating common design pitfalls and identifying promising design practices, this webinar will offer practical guidance to mental health systems so they can move toward the development of EHRs that facilitate, rather than hinder, the uptake of Person-Centered Recovery Planning.
At the end of the session, participants will be able to
- Identify at least 2 key questions to consider in the process of selecting an EHR vendor.
- Describe at least 3 EHR design strategies to maximize a recovery-oriented approach in Person-Centered Recovery Planning.
- Describe at least 2 implementation strategies to support the quality uptake of newly designed EHR recovery planning platforms.
