ImproveCareNow Exchange Create a learning resource that will radically change for the better what

people know about how to implement an effective and reliable care delivery system to treat and manage chronic disease beginning

with pediatric inflammatory bowel disease.

Inspirations

“Once you open the possibility

that people are not only using the

web as a platform … but to pool

their efforts, knowledge, and

resources … the possibilities for

what they can create are

astounding (Benkler, 2001)."

“What can we do

to get more kids

into remission

today?”

The ImproveCareNow (ICN) Network has evolved from a small improvement

Collaborative of eight centers working to rapidly improve outcomes for pediatric

inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) to a Network comprised of 63 centers as of

April 2014.

The Network needed a user-friendly, visually appealing, and adaptable “home” for the

many innovative tools that participating centers and their parents and patient partners

develop, adapt, and/or share.

The Challenge

Aspirations

Make it possible for a geographically

dispersed community of clinicians,

scientists, patients, and parents to

pool their knowledge, learn from each

other and improve outcomes.

Assumptions What if there was a place to exchange

ICN tools, processes, stories and

lessons learned?

You can access

the ICN

exchange on

your mobile

device.

Planning the design: Inspired by Pinterest,

the popular social media site.

Doing iterative tests: Site design and

functionality are continually adapted and

refined.

Studying and acting on what we learn

from site metrics and user feedback:

• RCs and nurses are the key consumers

and contributors of site resources.

• Targeted assignments and prompts

increase use.

• Most centers have at least one Exchange

user. Contribution of content varies by

center.

What’s next? Scaling up to meet the needs of a growing Network. Incorporating or connecting with patient and parent partners. Making sure the best resources are the easiest to find.
