Description:

This presentation highlights how digital tools like Cognishine and easyReportPRO can combat clinician burnout. Cognishine, a device-agnostic platform with 3,000+ multimedia activities, enhances therapy across domains and ages, improving engagement and reducing preparation time (43% reduction reported). Pilot studies show improved patient outcomes and reduced therapist cognitive load. easyReportPRO automates diagnostic report writing for speech-language pathologists, offering 900+ templates and saving clinicians an average of 2.5 hours per report. By streamlining workflows and alleviating documentation burdens, these technologies foster sustainable clinical practice, allowing clinicians to prioritize patient care. Digital tools provide a powerful approach to mitigating clinician burnout by streamlining workflows, automating repetitive tasks, and alleviating documentation burdens. This talk will provide demonstrations of two key examples of such tools, Cognishine and easyReportPRO, showcased as part of a strategy to foster sustainable clinical practice.

Learning Outcomes:

As a result of this activity, participants will be able to:

• Identify and describe two distinct types of digital tools (Cognishine and easyReportPRO) and explain how each directly addresses a specific aspect of clinician workload, such as therapy preparation or documentation. Compare and contrast the primary functions of Cognishine and easyReportPRO, specifying at least one measurable benefit reported by clinicians or pilot studies for each platform (e.g., percentage reduction in preparation time, average time saved on reports). Discuss how the strategic adoption of digital tools, as exemplified by Cognishine and easyReportPRO, can contribute to a more sustainable clinical practice by reducing administrative burden and freeing up clinician time for direct patient care.
