Episode Synopsis "Innovation: Pediatric Risk Stratification"

This episode is presented by the American Case Management Association. Join our host, Deb McElroy, along with featured guest, Sarah Bradshaw. Sarah is the principal investigator for the research and development of the High Acuity Readmission Risk Pediatric Screen Tool, also known as the HARRPS Tool. She has presented her quality improvement and research findings at several regional and national conferences and has been published in the Journal of Pediatric Nursing and the American Case Management Association’s Collaborative Case Management publication. In this episode, the conversation is centered around identifying patients at risk for poor transitions, quality improvement, and the process for development of the High-Acuity Readmission Risk Pediatric Screen Tool. The HARRPS Tool is a collection of questions that calculates an overall readmission risk score for a pediatric patient. The score is then associated with a risk category of low, moderate, or high risk. The evidence-based tool has undergone research providing credibility to the tool’s predictive power in identifying readmission risk for the pediatric population.
