From Ideation to Realization
In “Why Healthcare Organizations Are Launching Innovation Centers,” UC San Diego Health leaders share the successes and challenges of standing up an innovation center to support their forward-thinking transformations.
“Having this resource lifts the entire UC San Diego Health organization,” says Dr. Christopher Longhurst, executive director of UC San Diego Health’s Jacobs Center for Health Innovation. He is also the chief medical officer and chief digital officer of the health system. “The resources that the center provides are helping us catalyze and spur innovation throughout the organization.”
And don’t miss out on the transformations happening at leading senior care organizations. In “How Senior Care Organizations Are Using Tech to Attract and Retain Staff,” Lifespace Communities is modernizing its technology stack and processes to attract and retain valuable team members.
“We see technology as an enabling tool,” says Chief Strategy Officer Mike Roach. “It helps make our team members more efficient at their jobs, and it can also create peace of mind for our team members, so that they’re not distracted or worried about the solutions and they can put their focus on the residents that they’re serving every day.”
