WEBINAR / FIRESIDE CHAT | The Moxi Project at ChristianaCare: Robotic Assistant Frees Up Nurses’ Time

Fireside Chat with Katherine A. Collard, MS, RN-BC, NP, Chief Nursing Information Officer, IT, and Jim McAdams, MBA, PMP, Director of Digital Acceleration, ChristianaCare, moderated by Ken Perez, Vice President, Healthcare Policy and Government Affairs, Omnicell. Funded by a $1.5-million grant from the American Nurses Foundation, Wilmington, Del.-based ChristianaCare is the first health system in the Philadelphia region piloting an innovative tool called “Moxi,” a collaborative robot—or “cobot”—that can assist in the hospital by making deliveries, retrieving equipment and supplies and performing other non-clinical tasks so nurses and other clinical staff can spend more time caring for patients. Moxi cobots will be integrated with the EHR as part of the grant project and use AI to proactively identify when nurses will need equipment, supplies, medications and lab tests. Three Moxi cobots are deployed to 11 inpatient units, partnering with more than 400 nurses, completing 200 tasks a day, saving nurses thousands of steps.
