Community IDN Relies on RoundTable’s Epic Instructional Design Consulting

When a community IDN client faced an Epic Instructional Design / Principal Trainer vacancies due to internal re-organization, client leaders immediately engaged with RoundTable’s Epic Consulting team to identify interim Epic OpTime / Anesthesia and Radiant / Cupid Instructional Design / Principal Trainer Consultant to ensure critical knowledge transfer and educational continuity while an additional FTE resource is identified and on-boarded. The Epic OpTime / Anesthesia and Radiant / Cupid Instructional Design / Principal Trainer Consultants will ensure that understanding and utilization of unique, specialty modules will go on uninterrupted, while simultaneously identifying opportunities to fine-tune instructional design material and the Master Training Environment to mirror clinical workflows and updates.

Rachael Battin, Consulting Practice PM advises, “Educational continuity is particularly critical when dealing with Epic’s specialty modules, with intricate and interconnected clinical workflows. RoundTable Epic Instructional Design / Principal Trainer Consultants not only bridge a precarious gap during the search for new client FTE’s, they are also able to infuse knowledge gained across diverse client environments, further enriching the resources into which those new client FTEs will ultimately assimilate.”
