Other NewsThe following are the FY17 recipients of DHM internal grants for innovative, focused, and achievable proposals that are expected to make significant contributions and advance the careers of the faculty members involved: Aylin Ulku and Ari Hoffman: a grant entitled, “Striving for Comprehensive Care: Improving Care and Reducing Readmission Rates for Adult Patients with Sickle Cell Disease,” that seeks to coordinate PCPs, hematologists, hospitalists, and patients to improve the care of patients with sickle cell disease at UCSF. Sirisha Narayana: a grant entitled, “Longitudinal Patient Follow-Up: Improving Medical Decision-Making and Life-Long Learning Through Self-Directed Feedback,” that expands her previous work with the Internal Medicine interns to build a system where residents and faculty are able to more easily review outcomes of discharged patients and glean lessons learned. Sujatha Sankaran: a grant entitled, “Development of a Global Program in Lean/Kaizen,” that aims to work with the HEAL Initiative to create a curriculum and implement a pilot program for Lean-Kaizen interventions at two global sites, Liberia and tribal India. |
