New CAST Case Study: Actors Fund Home transforms care with Netsmart's myUnity
When the electronic health record (EHR) system became outdated at Actors Fund Home, a LeadingAge member in Englewood, NJ, which provides short-term rehabilitation and long-term residence for people who worked in performing arts and entertainment, the organization sought an upgrade that transitioned away from manual processes and improved efficiencies in admissions and care transitions.
The chosen solution was myUnity® post-acute EHR software from Netsmart, a LeadingAge Bronze Partner with CAST Focus that empowers providers with one unified platform to deliver high-quality, integrated care.
Mere weeks after implementing myUnity®, Actors Fund Home had eliminated paper charts, sped and improved accuracy of admissions, and raised staff satisfaction. The latest LeadingAge CAST case study, "From Paper to Productivity: How Actors Fund Home Transformed Care with myUnity," shares details on the implementation as well as learnings for providers.
Scaling for the Future
Actors Fund Home enjoyed longtime leadership and staff who had remained comfortable with manual systems and were adept at temporary workarounds to any challenges. Ultimately, however, they understood the need to automate and integrate processes, as well as to scale for a changing environment. User-friendly workflows, scalability, and seamless integration across care settings made the myUnity® software a strong fit for the organization's needs.
Partnering on a Smooth Transition
With myUnity®, the Actors Home Fund gained a dedicated Netsmart support team that led a seamless transition with the following steps.
Clear communication, staff involvement, and a focus on building system confidence produced a seamless transition with a minimal impact on day-to-day operations.
