AI-Assisted Nurse Dashboard for Intelligent Bed Placement

AI-Powered Bed Assignment for Optimized Patient Management

Students: Rebecca Mbadiwe Awofisayo, Lawrence Kumah, Nitika Bhandari Instructor: Hossein Mohit, Ph.D. Industry Sponsor: Wellstar

Students: Pravinya Mandalapu, Krutiben Bhalodia, Mevin Ansa Instructor: Hossein Mohit, Ph.D. Industry Sponsor: Wellstar

Abstract: This capstone proposes an AI-assisted nurse dashboard to optimize emergency department bed placement. By integrating a real time bed board, clinical scoring engine, and AI chatbot, the system reduces placement delays, cognitive burden, and assignment inconsistency while preserving nurse override authority. The framework supports patient safety, operational efficiency, and Wellstar’s digital transformation goals.

Abstract: ED boarding the delay between an admission order and inpatient bed placement threatens patient safety and hospital efficiency. Manual chart reviews and fragmented communication prolong these delays even in EHR- equipped hospitals. This paper proposes extending Wellstar’s KATE AI triage tool into a real-time, AI-assisted bed assignment system within Epic, connecting clinical data with bed availability, unit capabilities, and OR schedules to generate transparent, nurse-controlled placement recommendations. Scenario-based testing across four clinical presentations validates the decision logic. Though conceptual, the framework offers a viable path to reducing ED boarding and advancing AI-driv- en patient flow management.

The Inpatient Perspective: Evaluating the Effectiveness of the Virtual Nursing Department Workflow

Student: Chinenye Ofodile Instructor: Hossein Mohit, Ph.D. Industry Sponsor: Piedmont Healthcare

An Integrated Mobile Application for Diabetes Self-Management

Student: Cassi Proctor Instructor: Hossein Mohit, Ph.D.

Abstract: Virtual nursing (VN) is a subsection of telehealth that provides remote care to patients. Within the hospital setting, VN models support the improvement of the nursing care framework by strengthen- ing inpatient support and advancing patient care standards. The objective is to obtain quantitative data from inpatient leadership to increase the perception of data driven opportunities for communicating between virtual nursing and inpatient leaders. Methods include data collection through a survey; survey feedback assesses the perception and opinions of the current workflow, cultivating opportunities to evaluate effectiveness and identify potential workflow gaps. Results indicated the quality of communi- cation between inpatient and virtual nurses at 3.75 out of 5. Nonetheless, there is a 100% satisfaction rating of the overall relationship between inpatient units and the VN department. This project provides valuable insights on the inpatient perspective of the current VN workflow and identifies an area for improvement.

Abstract: Diabetes mellitus remains one of the most prevalent and costly chronic diseases in the United States, requiring continuous self-management to prevent long-term complications. Although mobile health (mHealth) applications have emerged as supportive tools, many existing diabetes-focused appli- cations address only isolated components of care. This capstone proposes and designs Sweet Spot — a comprehensive mobile application prototype integrating appointment tracking, glucose monitoring, meal planning, and medication management into a single user-friendly platform. Literature review highlights persistent gaps in preventive service utilization, medication adherence, glycemic control, and patient health literacy (CDC, 2026; ADA, 2024). These shortcomings support the need for a patient-cen- tered digital solution that improves engagement and care coordination.

Proactive Pediatric Workflow Optimization: Operationalizing Pediatric Readiness Through Standardized Workflow and Decision Support

CRM Software Implementation Final Report Student: Daniel Simpson

Student: Kayla Hunley Instructor: Michael Taylor, Ph.D. Industry Sponsor: Wellstar

Instructor: Michael Taylor, Ph.D. Industry Sponsor: Trelia Health

Abstract: The proposed project is to improve Trella Health LLC’s CRM software implementation pro- cess. I will be working with the director of implementations, Christopher Titone, to assess the current CRM implementation and integration process for defects and points of weakness. We will also develop and execute an initiative to improve the process internally with a goal of significantly and measurably improving the outcomes of the average implementation. Some variables that we are interested in are customer adoption and satisfaction, internal process documentation and streamlining, time to live met- rics, and integration accuracy. This will be an interdepartmental effort including representation from Trella’s sales, customer success, implementation, support, and integration teams. Limited, but benefi- cial input will be considered from current clients as well.

Abstract: This project addresses the systemic “competency gap” in pediatric emergency care through the engineering of structural guardrails within the pediatric emergency room. In a high-turnover en- vironment where staffing and management are variable, the project operates on the principle that the system must remain the constant. By transitioning from person-dependent workflows to a system-de- pendent informatics model, the project aims to mitigate the increase mortality risk associated with low pediatric readiness. Key interventions include a comprehensive audit of supplies, easy to access credentialing frameworks, and the alignment of nurse protocols with new employee training materials. Despite significant variation across shifts throughout the workday, the project has worked to achieve “structural success” by establishing a SharePoint Clinical Knowledge Hub a single source of resource. This digital infrastructure integrates internal standard workflows with external clinical guidelines, ensuring that rotating staff have 24/7 access to the validated decision support tools required to provide safe, evidence-based care.

Evaluating the Potential Impact of PACE Implementation in Georgia: A Healthcare Management and Health Informatics Approach

Students: Purity Varist, Lisa Whisby Instructor: Michael Taylor, Ph.D. Industry Sponsor: Traktion

Wellstar ED Inpatient Throughput Data Collection Dashboard Students: Elisabeth Federici, Trupti Kallurwar, Zoe Luter Instructor: Michael Taylor, Ph.D. Industry Sponsor: Wellstar

Abstract: Georgia’s aging population and increasing healthcare demands present an urgent need for integrated, cost-effective models of elder care. Although the state passed legislation in 2024 authorizing the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE), no active sites currently operate in Georgia. This capstone project evaluates the potential impact of implementing PACE statewide and explores how health informatics innovations can strengthen their launch, scalability, and effectiveness. PACE is a nationally recognized program that coordinates comprehensive medical and social services for adults aged 55 and older who qualify for nursing home care but prefer to remain in their communities. Evidence from established programs in states such as Pennsylvania, California, Michigan, and North Carolina demonstrates measurable benefits which includes fewer hospitalizations and emergency visits, lower institutionalization rates, improved chronic disease management, and overall cost savings for Medicare and Medicaid. By examining demographic, economic, and healthcare data specific to Georgia, this project estimates the eligible population, regional service needs, and potential system-wide economic impact. The infor- matics component focuses on developing strategies to enhance enrollment identification, care coordi- nation, and performance monitoring. Proposed solutions include a statewide PACE analytics dashboard, health information exchange integration, and predictive modeling tools to identify high risk seniors. Together, these informatics-driven approaches can enable data transparency, outcome monitoring, and efficient program scaling. Overall, this capstone underscores the significant opportunity for Georgia to leverage health informatics in launching a sustainable PACE network that improves senior health out- comes, reduces healthcare expenditures and supports community-based aging.

Abstract: Within the current Wellstar ecosystem, critical unit data often remains fragmented across var- ious parts of the EMRs. While tools like Epic’s SlicerDicer can generate large amounts of data, it is rarely able to synthesize it into actionable insights. This can create various blind spots within the metric track- ing, making it difficult to identify whether ED room turnover bottlenecks are related to staffing, poor communication across the disciplines, or resource constraints. Methodology: This project used Figma’s AI features to generate and establish its initial wireframe prototype. These designs were then manually refined to meet specific stakeholder requirements and identified clinical needs. Results: The resulting dashboard centralized import metrics for EVS, room availability, and provider orders as they relate to ED Inpatient throughput timelines. A key tool implemented was an automated refresh system that provides end users with continuous access to data reports, rather than a static number-tracking system. Conclusion: By transitioning from isolated reporting systems to a centralized, automated dashboard, this tool provides the necessary data transparency missing within Wellstar’s ecosystem. This demon- strates the power of AI-driven prototyping and the ways it can bridge the gap between high volumes of collected data and operational intelligence.

Patient Intake and Enrollment Process, Exploring Informatics Solutions

Non-Pharmacological & Technology-Based Interventions for Managing Agitation in Dementia Care

Student: Aleisha Meriweather Instructor: Michael Taylor, Ph.D. Industry Sponsor: Traktion

Students: Nitika Bhandari Advisor: Modupe Atkintomide Industry Sponsor: Smart Care Team

Abstract: The intake and enrollment process of the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) explains how a digital intake solution can improve efficiency, accessibility, and patient experience. While PACE programs have demonstrated success in improving patient outcomes and reducing insti- tutional care, the intake process remains complex and toilsome. This study maps the current intake workflow to identify inefficiencies and barriers that delay enrollment and limit access to care. A pro- posed digital intake model is developed using healthcare informatics tools such as automated eligibility verification, mobile-friendly intake platforms, and integrated health information systems. These tools aim to streamline data collection, improve coordination across interdisciplinary teams, and reduce manual administrative processes. The research highlights both the strengths and limitations of the current intake process and demon- strates how digital transformation can enhance operational efficiency and pre-patient intake experi- ence. Expected outcomes include reduced processing time intake improved data accuracy, increased access to services, and a more patient-centered enrollment process. This project emphasizes the role of healthcare informatics in modernizing intake workflows and supporting the expansion of PACE services.

Abstract: Agitation is one of the most prevalent and distressing behavioral symptoms in dementia, yet existing pharmacological treatments carry significant safety risks. This systematic review examines both technology-based and non-technology-based (in-person) non-pharmacological interventions for managing agitation in individuals living with dementia. Technology-based approaches, including virtual reality, robotic companions, personalized digital music systems, tablet applications, and sensor-based monitoring tools are compared against traditional in-person methods such as music therapy, reminis- cence activities, animal-assisted programs, and structured social interaction. Nine studies were includ- ed following PRISMA 2020 and JBI guidelines. Findings consistently demonstrate that technology-based interventions offer effective, scalable, and safer alternatives, with personalization identified as the key driver of sustained agitation reduction across all care settings.
