Abstract
When Rochester Regional Health (RRH) Chief Nursing Officer (CNO) Council was organized in 2014, the members, who represented all acute care hospitals in the RRH system, determined several goals, 1 of which was: “Improve the patient experience in collaboration with other system leaders.” As electronic medical records became a government mandate and technology took hold in health care organizations, nurses immediately realized the benefits to patient care and patient safety by doing away with paper and moving the electronic age of medicine forward. Thus began the RRH CNO Council's journey to achieve HIMSS Analytics Stage 7 designation in the RRH acute care hospitals.
