Book excerpt: Hospitals face increasingly high pressure to maintain quality care as evidenced by patient satisfaction as well as patient safety scores. The rigorous gravity of satisfaction and safety are factors that affect the return of satisfied patients and payment by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) (Hagland, 2011). Because nurses are seen as key providers and are the ones that are typically perceived as providers of timely pain management, ones who develop healthy, trusting relationships and communicators of much of the information that is provided in a hospital setting, many satisfaction scores are based on the quality of nurse care delivered. Due to the importance of nursing and their overall impact on patient's as well as hospital's bottom line, it imperative that the nurse excel at meeting and exceeding patient expectations. When nursing staff is overwhelmed and understaffed, the patient suffers. The suffering can cause longer stays and increased financial burden on the patient as well as the hospital. One way to improve outcomes is to design and implement an hourly or intentional rounding program to ensure that the patient's needs are being met and that patients feel well taken care of. There are different situations in a variety of facilities that can benefit from hourly rounding. The need to develop an program that is tailored to the necessities of a specific floor or unit is crucial in the success of the program. Based on research, hourly rounding can make a positive impact on patient and nurse satisfaction.
Book Synopsis Impact of Hourly Rounding on Patient Falls by : Patricia Doyle
Download or read book Impact of Hourly Rounding on Patient Falls written by Patricia Doyle and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to the Agency for Health care Research and Quality, approximately 700,000 to 1 million patients fall in hospitals annually (Ferenc, 2014). Patient safety and fall prevention are a top priority for nursing. Hourly or purposeful rounding has been suggested as an intervention to combat patient falls. Research shows that hourly rounding reduces patient falls, decreases call light use and helps to improve patient satisfaction scores. A systematic review of literature was conducted to determine the effectiveness of hourly rounding in preventing patient falls as oppose to no rounding or current clinical practices. Fifteen peer-reviewed research articles on the subject were examined, including 13 quantitative or qualitative studies and two literature review studies. Overall, based on the research, hourly rounding helped to reduce patient falls. Therefore, hourly rounding should be incorporated into nursing work flow as an evidence-based best practice.

Book Synopsis The Effect of Hourly Rounding on Reducing Call Light Usage Pressure Sores and Falls in Hospitalized Patients by : Barbara Sheriff
Download or read book The Effect of Hourly Rounding on Reducing Call Light Usage Pressure Sores and Falls in Hospitalized Patients written by Barbara Sheriff and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hourly rounding has been trialed and implemented in hospitals across the country. Rounding hourly on patients benefits the patients, the patient's family and hospital staff. For patients hourly rounding gives them a feeling of security because they know their nurse will see them every hour. Patient's families feel reassured that it is safe to leave their loved one at the hospital because the nurse will see them every hour. For nurses hourly rounding affords them an opportunity to spend quality time with their patients which helps develop a sense of trust between the patient and the nurse. Hourly rounding has been shown to decrease call light usage, falls and pressure sores as well as increase patient satisfaction. 'Margo A. Halm, RN, PhD, CNS-BC, director of nursing research and quality at Salem Hospital in Oregon, reviewed 11 hourly rounding studies and reported in a 2009 American Journal of Critical Care article that 83 percent of studies examined showed a reduction in call lights, 77 percent a decrease in fall rates and 88 percent an improvement in patient satisfaction' (Wood, 2014, para. 8). 'Swanson's Nursing Care Theory supports the purposed use of hourly rounding as it centers on practices that promote patient satisfaction and safety by focusing on the connection between caring processes and patient well-being and outcomes' (Tongues, Ray, 2011, pages374). Hourly rounding was introduced previously at this facility but the implementation was poorly received by nurses. In an effort to reintroduce hourly rounding, a team will be formed to champion the process, a presentation to the stakeholders will be done outlining the plan as well as the costs involved, and ongoing education will be provided for nursing as well as tools to aid the nurse in incorporating hourly rounding into their daily routines. Weekly meetings with a specific agenda will be held encouraging staff feedback on how the hourly rounding trial is proceeding. At the end of the trial period an assessment will be given to each nurse seeking their ideas and any new problems that need to be addressed. The team will evaluate data from the meetings, patient's comments and any occurrence reports concerning falls and pressure sores and call light usage information obtained from the facilities call light system. This information will be shared with the stake holders as well as nursing staff. As the nursing shortage increases, hospitals as well as nursing leaders are searching for ways to provide quality care, enhance patient safety and satisfaction and to increase nurse's satisfaction. 'Hourly patient rounding proposes to be one answer to both patient and nurse satisfaction' (Wood, 2014, para.6).
Book Synopsis Purposeful Hourly Rounding and Improved Patient Outcomes by : Angela C. Radonski
Download or read book Purposeful Hourly Rounding and Improved Patient Outcomes written by Angela C. Radonski and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patient safety is at the core of healthcare as a fundamental of caring. Based on research studies, patient safety and outcomes is increased with the use of hourly rounding. This project is a review of literature regarding the impact of hourly rounding on call light use, patient satisfaction, and safety with a primary focus on falls in an acute care setting. It is proposed that use of purposeful hourly rounding will increase both patient safety and decrease use of call lights if implementation includes the use of theory of planned behavior, which would impact both patient and nursing staff behavior. The implementation plan set forth in this project is not one of new design. It is one of modified design which relies heavily on implementation research studies allowing for an understanding of what can be improved so that professional behaviors already in place will be more streamlined. The evaluation plan has reasoning as well as tools to be used in the process of piloting the program allowing for improvement before dissemination to other facilities for a larger scale impact.

Download or read book Effectiveness Hourly Rounding Has on Patient Safety and Satisfaction written by Eric Atkinson and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The healthcare landscape in the United States today is undergoing a transformation. Driven largely by the Affordable Care Act (ACA) mandatory healthcare insurance for everyone including those individuals with preexisting conditions, and by the change in how the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services (CMS) reimburse hospitals, to a patient ssatisfaction dependant model. For most hospitals the new objective is to not only reduce adverse hospital related events while improving the patient outcome but to now also to include increasing patient satisfaction. Nurses and the care they provide directly impact the patients satisfaction. Nursing rounds particularly hourly nursing rounds have been shown to reduce anxiety and increases satisfaction for patients during their hospitalization. When patients feel safe and satisfied with their care, they are more likely to return/answer surveys with satisfactory marks, and also recommend the facility to friends and loved ones.

Book Synopsis The Hcahps Handbook by : Quint Studer
Download or read book The Hcahps Handbook written by Quint Studer and published by . This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hospitals have always felt pressure to provide excellent clinical care. And now that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act has been signed into law, that pressure has intensified. Increasingly, hospitals will face financial consequences for failing to live up to patient expectations of quality care. HCAHPS results are directly linked to reimbursement. But they're also a barometer for measuring clinical performance and quality improvement. When hospitals raise their HCAHPS results, they also have fewer falls, lower infection rates, fewer readmissions - all the factors that impact reimbursement. The HCAHPS Handbook is a practical resource filled with actionable tips proven to help hospitals improve patient perception of care. Because it's broken down by HCAHPS composites, readers can zero in on the parts of the survey that need attention. And the book provides a few carefully targeted tactics they can use to improve the results on each question. Best of all, these tactics are foundational. They build on what most hospitals (particularly those that have implemented Studer Group's Evidence Based Leadership framework) are already doing. It's about working smarter, not harder. And ultimately, it's about hardwiring the behaviors and processes that lead to consistent excellence - and creating a culture of always.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patient care, safety and satisfaction are top priority for the health care team when providing in-patient care. Patients must be monitored and cared well to improve their health conditions and to avoid further complications during hospital stay. Risk of hospitalized patients fall is the most concern for nurses. Hospital acquired new incidents like patient fall and pressure ulcers has a negative impact on patient recovery, causes lengthy hospital stay, financial burden for hospitals and increases nursing burnouts. Patients with stroke are at high risk for fall. In earlier studies it is found that 14% of the stroke patients fell at least once during their hospital admission (Tutuarima, Meulen, and Limburg, 2012). Frequent monitoring of the patients by nurses can prevent never events. But nurses attempt to be proactive on avoiding these issues are impaired by factors like high patient ratios, lack of time , frequent call lights and stress from meeting the patients demands. Planned hourly rounding is a proactive approach to patient care. Hourly rounding reduces patient fall, skin break downs, call light use, noise level and also improve patient satisfaction. Studies on hourly rounding to increase the patient safety and patient satisfaction showed a 52% decline in call light use after implementing hourly rounding and unit was quiet and nurses could spend more time for patient care and logs (Ford, 2010). Intentional rounding researches showed significant reduction in fall rate with one hour rounding. With the implementation of hourly rounding on the stroke and cardiac inpatient unit of the Texas Health Resources Hospital, the purpose is to prevent unwanted events and to improve patient satisfaction and safety.
Book Synopsis Hourly Rounding as an Intervention to Prevent Patient Falls by : Andrea Moye
Download or read book Hourly Rounding as an Intervention to Prevent Patient Falls written by Andrea Moye and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Falls in the hospital can be a devastating event causing serious injury, prolonged hospital stays, and even death. Falls are a nurse-sensitive indicator meaning nurses are in an important position to directly impact and influence ideas and methods to promote patient safety. Research has shown that hourly rounding is a nurse-led intervention to reduce falls in the hospital setting. Rounding is the process of proactively anticipating the needs of the patient before they have to use their call light. Rounding can be successfully integrated into the clinical environment with a strong implementation plan and follow-up as a method to keep patients safe from falling. Education and clear communication is a key component in successfully implementing any change project. Staff must know and understand the background on why they are doing rounding and how it will positively impact patient safety. There must be clear guidelines, expectations, and set outcomes to the change project or it will not be successful. Dissemination allows for the sharing of new information based on solid, quality data regarding the effectiveness, and cost-effectiveness of the proposed change of hourly rounding preventing falls in the adult medical surgical population. The ultimate goal of implementing a change is to put evidence-based knowledge and practices into clinical care to improve patient outcomes. Change can be a daunting task but with strategic planning and incorporating theories that predict behaviors, change can not only be successful but transform how safe patient care is delivered.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Best practices for pain management have been available through nationally published clinical practice guidelines since the early 1990s, yet great opportunity for improving pain management still exists (Vega-Stromberg, Baird Holmes, Gorski, & Johnson, 2002). Evidence-based practice (EBP) promotes safe, effective, and appropriate patient care. Supported by evidence-based guidelines, EBP includes compilations of the best available evidence on a given topic, readily accessible from organizations such as the National Guideline Clearinghouse. Despite availability, the inconsistent use of pain management guidelines means that 30% to 40% of patients do not receive required care. ..." -- from Introduction.
