NYU Lange Hospital: A Case Study

Decent Essays
Please accept my enthusiastic application for the Creative Arts Therapist position at NYU Langone Hospital. I recently completed my Master’s thesis on the validity of art therapy in medicine and feel I could contribute to NYU Langone Hospital’s excellent reputation.

A health care setting is a familiar environment for me, and I am aware of the challenges of the medical population confronts. Through my training at NYC HHC Woodhull Medical Center, I gained valuable skills that are applicable to working with children and adult patients at NYU Langone Hospital. I have worked with a wide range of patients in both age and medical diagnosis, for example, patients diagnosed with advanced dementia, traumatic brain injury, and Parkinson’s disease.

    Your healthcare organization, Harris Memorial Hospital, needs to look at both “hard” and “soft” savings when considering a system’s return on investment. Today’s presentation we will take a deeper look at the soft returns when implementing an electronic health record (EHR) system. It is important to remember that indirect savings are usually applied to processes not easily measured and, thus, quantifying savings can be difficult to see at first. We will look at the three steps in documenting soft returns: (1) identifying a process improvement opportunity, which is improved time/efficiency; (2) create a formula to calculate the benefits; (3) and determine the costs of the process and the net benefits. In order to determine the return benefits from EHR implementation, it is necessary to establish baseline metrics that can be used as a guideline for measuring success after the implementation.…

For example, Dr. Irwin Braverman, professor to Yale medical students in 1998, discovered that when his students’ capabilities to diagnose were tested at a local medical facility, their ability to visually perceive and recognize symptoms proved unsatisfactory. Yet, this creative professor developed an unusual panacea for this alarming issue, “His novel solution was to take them to an art gallery. He teamed up with Linda Friedlander, curator of the Yale Center for British Art to design a visual tutorial for one hundred students. They asked the students to examine paintings, forcing them to unpack the many layers of detail and meaning in a good work of art.…
