Implementing and Evaluating Modified Early Obstetrical Warning Score (MEOWS)

 

Purpose:

We hope to share what we learn about material development, change management strategies, and evaluation related to MEOWS implementation so that other centers planning to implement a similar early warning system can benefit from our experience.

 

Learning Objectives:

Following this session, participants will be able to:

1. Summarize the process we used to implement and evaluate MEOWS.

2. Apply our learnings about MEOWS implementation and evaluation to the adoption of a similar system at their respective clinical sites.

3. Identify resources that can assist with the implementation of MEOWS at their respective clinical sites.
