80061651 - Johns Hopkins 6th Annual Hospital Activity and Mobility Conference

Wednesday, April 26, 2023, 7:00 AM - Thursday, June 1, 2023, 5:00 PM, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Turner Auditorium, Baltimore, MD


Johns Hopkins Activity and Mobility Promotion (AMP) stands behind a systematic approach to combating hospital immobility and improving patient outcomes. While evidence supports the benefits of mobility, implementing these interventions requires creating a new collaborative culture. Our on-demand library offers up to 24 hours of content from JH-AMP foundations to advanced topics you can watch before and after the conference. In addition to the on-demand library, to optimize learner experience, we have gone hybrid with up to 20 distinct hours of in-person interaction, innovation, mentoring, and networking. This conference bridges the gap between research and clinical implementation.

2. Describe mobility within the context of safe-patient handling and other hospital safety initiatives.
3. Explain the tenets and methods of a structured quality improvement process for developing and implementing a system mobility program in the acute hospital setting.
4. Explain current practice and interdisciplinary roles in an adulty mobility program.
5. Describe how to create a clinical culture that recognizes the importance of data.
6. Develop clinical questions that can be answered using mobility data.
7. Integrate mobility data into ongoing quality improvement efforts.
