2023 Together - PH363 - The Quality-Safety-Experience Nexus: Influencing and Rounding for Excellence
Too often, quality, and experience (QSE) teams work in silos without a common language or operating principles. Each is often viewed as its own discipline. We sought to nurture a culture of high reliability by highlighting the overlap of safety, quality and experience with the patient at the center of the Venn diagram to amplify each other’s disciplines. Our signature initiative is joint listening rounds with SQE and local leaders as a bidirectional conversation to share best practices on shared (QSE) tactics, learn about barriers to implementation and encourage caregivers to focus on QSE. These rounds enabled us to advance enterprise goals at local hospitals, build good will and empower local ownership with these processes.
