Measure Early and Often

Why Use Activation?• Improvements correlate with better

health outcomes • Can be done with minimal training• Can be administered frequently (90 days

or less)• Provides basis of comparison across

variety of programs

Start Small and Adapt“We all need the latitude to try out new ideas. Look for ways to grant yourself creative license, or give yourself the equivalent of a get-out-of-jail-free card. Label your next new idea an experiment, and let everyone know that you are just testing it out. Lower others’ expectations, so that failure can lead to learning without career damage.” –David Kelley and Tom Kelley, “Creative Confidence”

Pilot Parameters:• Partner with regional hospital • Test in Independent Living Facility• 15 seniors for six months• Success based on enrollment and PAM improvements• Total cost ~$15,000

Closing thought“Using technology, such as care.coach, enables us to reach outside the doors of the hospital to continue the excellent care our rural communities expect. Collaborating with EHF provides the resources and connections necessary to try new things and to continue our culture of innovation looking to decrease health costs, improve patient experience and promote population health.”Becky HighfillDirector, Center for Learning and Innovation Pullman Regional Hospital

Interact!

“In actual practice, there is too little expertise on how to engage people effectively and broadly.”

“The Presentation is neither an inclusive nor an engaging process since a single person controls the content.”

“These five conventional methods are the presentation, the managed discussion, the status report, the open discussion, and the brainstorm.”

“The Managed Discussion puts control entirely into a single hand, with all the difficulties and complications that this entails.”

1-2-4-All• 1: Silent self-reflection by individuals on a shared challenge, framed as

a question (e.g., What opportunities do YOU see for making progress on this challenge? What ideas or actions do you recommend?) 1 min.

• 2: Generate ideas in pairs, building on ideas from self-reflection. 2 min.

• 4: For four minutes, share / compare / expand in groups of four and agree on your "best" idea. 4 min.

• All: Ask, “What is one idea that stood out in your conversation?” Each group shares one important idea with all. 5 min.

Shared Challenge

"How might you address [real challenge in your community] through the use of

[real or imaginary technology]?"
