  5. What Do Staff “Think” About Hourly Rounds? • Scripts are fake • We don’t have time • This is about patient satisfaction not quality • Patients get annoyed with us checking on them every hour • Logs are stupid • Managers don’t care about us, they just care about their dumb reports to the Studer Group • What else?

  6. Myth #1: Hourly Rounding Was “Invented” By The Studer Group Throughout the night, she would move through the dark hallways carrying a lamp while making her rounds, checking on each patient and providing care if needed. The soldiers were comforted by her compassion, earning her the nickname, "The Lady with the Lamp." Her care would forever change the way hospitals treated patients. Most consider Nightingale the founder of modern nursing.

  7. High Reliability Demands Simplicity • If we asked five front line staff this question – what would we hear? “What is hourly rounding and why do we do it?

  8. What is Hourly Rounding? • What is it? • A plan to proactively interact with patients every hour during the day using focused key words to assess needs (pain, position, personal needs and patient education) • A care model to return care to the bedside, truly patient-centered • A plan to help achieve our goal to “always” deliver exceptional clinical quality care in a safe and compassionate environment • Why do it? • Evidence supports a decrease in patient anxiety, falls, skin breakdown, and nursing steps as well increased patient satisfaction • It allows nurses to provide more care at the bedside • It reduces anxiety, worry and waiting • It is just good patient care • There is no other initiative that impacts the patient perception of quality care as this ONE does.

  9. Eight Behaviors of Hourly Rounds – More Than 3 P’s

  10. Myth #2: We Don’t Have Time For Hourly Rounding “I am of certain convinced that the greatest heroes are those who do their duty in the daily grind of domestic affairs whilst the world whirls as a maddening dreidel.”  “Notes on Nursing” Florence Nightingale 1854

  11. Track By Low/Solid/High Performers

  12. Most Common Reasons for Call Light Use

  13. Time is Money $36,660/yr 700 calls/wk= 46 hrs One Call Light = 4 Minutes of Care Giver Time

  14. Staff is Already in the Room

  15. Myth #3: Hourly Rounding Is Implemented To Improve Patient Satisfaction “The very first requirement in a hospital is that it should do the sick no harm.”  “Notes on Nursing” Florence Nightingale 1854

  16. Evidence-Based Quality

  17. Responsiveness: Correlates to Quality

  18. Responsiveness:Correlates with Readmissions

  19. Myth #4: Yup, We Are Doing Hourly Rounding I think one's feelings waste themselves in words; they ought all to be distilled into actions which bring results. “Notes on Nursing” Florence Nightingale 1854

  20. Do Our Words = Results? • 88% of Georgia HEN Hospitals report they “ARE doing hourly rounding”… but Georgia ranks 47th out of 50 states in improvement in pain management

  21. Georgia Hospitals

  22. GA HEN Hospitals Falls

  23. GA HEN Hospitals HAPU

  24. Correlate Tactic With Results (ROI)

  25. Myth # 5“We have to sign the logs or get written up…we document in the chart so the log is stupid.” “How very little can be done under the spirit of fear.” “Notes on Nursing” Florence Nightingale 1854

  26. Logs Are A Visual for FAMILIES and Patients • Are your logs a visual representation of your quality to the patient/family? • Do they give you the information you need or are they duplicative charting?

  27. Nurse Leaders Round To Ensure Patients “FEEL” Quality Care • Nurse leader rounding with targeted questions: • Tell me one of the questions that your care team asks you when they come into do their hourly rounds? • We focus on meeting your needs, and with that in mind, the staff are to be in the room every hour asking about pain, position and bathroom needs. Has this been your experience? • Have you had to use your call light to ask for pain medicine in the last 24 hours? • Tell me what your nurse told you about our process for hourly rounding on this unit?

  28. Your Turn • Tell us about Hourly Rounding in YOUR hospital… • What is working well? • Where are there opportunities to improve Hourly Rounding

  30. Myth #6: Scripting/Key Words Make Us Sound Robotic “Always sit down when a sick person is talking business with you, show no signs of hurry, give complete attention and full consideration… Always sit within view so that when speaking to him, he does not have to painfully turn his head around in order to look at you. If you make this act wearisome, you are doing the patient harm. You cause harm also by continuing to stand to you make him continuously raise his eyes to see you.” “Notes on Nursing” Florence Nightingale 1854

  31. Our Goal is to Deliver Excellent Quality Care

  32. Tell the Patient the “Why” of Hourly Rounding “On this unit, one of our care team members will be coming in to see you every hour during the day. You will see either me or Jackie, our certified nurse assistant. I have worked with Jackie for two years and she is excellent. We will be checking on your comfort such as we will make sure we are helping manage any pain you might have, help you change position, help you to the bathroom and make sure you have everything you need.” We call this hourly rounding and we do it to make sure you are safe and we are always meeting your needs.” • Have you standardized the process of setting expectations of hourly rounding as part of how you deliver care? • How do you know it happens every time? • How do the staff explain the logs to the patient and family?

  33. WRITTEN Key Words

  34. Pause Before Leaving “Is This Patient Safe?”

  35. Care Boards are FOR the PATIENT

  36. Your Turn • Tell us some examples of using key words in YOUR hospital… • What is working well? • Where are there opportunities on your unit to use key words to reduce anxiety?

  37. Video Clip • Hourly rounding and care boards • What worked well • What are opportunities for improvement

  39. Myth # 7 Patients don’t like bedside shift report Apprehension, uncertainty, waiting, expectation, fear of surprise, do a patient more harm than any exertion. “Notes on Nursing” Florence Nightingale 1854

  40. Bedside Shift Report (Handover) The process of handing-over care delivery from one nurse to another at change of shift at the patient bedside. This process incorporates other concepts such as “managing up”, AIDET communication, teamwork and creating a safe patient environment. All necessary patient information is exchanged in the patient room such as patient identifiers, safety checks, medications, tests etc. This addresses basic patient rights by keeping them patient informed and involved in their care. The patient, and key caregiver/family members are INCLUDED in the conversation as a partner in their care. What is it? This process “transfers the trust” to the oncoming caregiver and reduces patient anxiety. Through a real-time exchange of information, the patient is involved in their care as well as teamwork and accountability are strengthened with the care-giver team. It aligns with Magnet and Baldrige criteria and National Patient Safety Goals Why is it important?

  41. Bedside Handover Lessons • Reinforce the WHY, connect to safe patient care and to nurse satisfaction • Address all barriers/resistance in training and ongoing in huddles and other communication • Show what RIGHT looks like which includes engaging the patient in their care – not just talking over their bed • Train and validate all staff • Reward top performance and coach opportunities • Track impact and communicate results • Patient satisfaction by unit and HCAHPS • Nurse communication, pain, responsiveness • Round on patients to confirm behaviors • Post results from rounding – thank you notes

  42. Myth #8: We Do Bedside Handover A want of the habit of observing conditions and an inveterate habit of taking averages are each of them often equally misleading. “Notes on Nursing” Florence Nightingale 1854

  43. Other Ways to Validate • Directly observe the practice on the unit • Leader rounding on patients • Verify bedside handover is occurring by asking patients and their families • Leader rounding on staff • Ask them what is working well • Highlight a WIN during Huddles • Discharge phone calls or survey • RESULTS – especially nurse communication

  44. Myth # 9: Management is in charge of how we deliver care “Let whoever is in charge keep this simple question in her head (not, how can I always do this right thing myself, but) how can I provide for this right thing to be always done?”  “Notes on Nursing” Florence Nightingale 1854

  45. Myth #10: It won’t work on our unit “I attribute my success to this - I never gave or took any excuse.” ― Florence Nightingale

  46. Thank Your For All YOU Do “Were there none who were discontented with what they have, the world would never reach anything better.”―Florence Nightingale, Notes on Nursing: What It Is, and What It Is Not
