2023 Together - P450 - Leader Rounding: Creating a Safety Culture for Patients and Worker - On Demand
Healthcare workers want to tell you how to provide safer care. Intentional leader rounding was utilized to build relationships with interdisciplinary healthcare workers to promote a culture of physical and psychological safety for patients and the workforce. A process was created to prioritize, escalate and resolve worker-reported concerns with loop closure to individuals. Nearly half of the employee-reported concerns involved themes of patient safety. The process incorporates the high-reliability organization principles of deference to expertise, preoccupation with failure and sensitivity to operations while empowering the workforce. This approach resulted in a 26% concern resolution rate in a three-month period.
Target Audience
- Healthcare Quality Professionals
- Nurses
- Pharmacists
- Pharmacy Technicians
- Physicians
- Other Healthcare Professionals
Learning Objectives
Discuss how intentional rounding embodies principles of high-reliability organizations.
Explain how to prioritize, escalate and resolve healthcare worker concerns with loop closure using visual dashboards.
Apply key principles of restoring joy to existing or new leader rounding programs.
