First Things First: Getting Out the Message

• Frontline Staff-What’s in it for me?– Over 500 page report from nurses-over 2 years of work– Transform Care Delivery– Platform that supports nursing’s commitment to Patient

Care• Coalition Efforts-Website updates• Staff Newsletters • Ties to Strategic Initiatives-Vision • Staff Forums and Community Presentations

Vision 2015-A Sample

Engage and support recommendations for RWJF/IOM Future of Nursing

Remove Scope of Practice Barriers

• Advance use of CNS-driven, population-focused programs, e.g. Stroke and Trauma Certifications

• Expand role of Unit Secretaries to Health Unit Coordinators

Nurses to lead and diffuse collaborative improvement efforts

• Continue to improve nurse-to-physician relations as evidenced by increased

collaboration/participation of physicians on key house wide initiatives

• Open and sustain advances in throughput with a Clinical Decision Unit

Bridge the gap from academia and practice

• Build and sustain a mentoring program for new graduates based on Professional Practice

Model and Magnet® Model

Increase BSN rate to 80% house wide by 2015

Vision 2015-A Sample

Engage and support recommendations for RWJF/IOM Future of Nursing

Prepare nurses to lead change• Advance number of certified nurses to 50%

Double the number of doctorate prepared nurse

Embrace Evidence-Based Practice and Research

Each unit will engage in 1 EBP/Research Study

Enhance a culture of excellence by achieving key performance milestones that

affect quality and safety

Nurse sensitive metrics will continually improve and outperform national

benchmarks:• Fall prevention program promoting efforts to exceed NDNQI 25th percentile for number of falls per

1000 patient days

• Sustain and/decrease current rate of HAPU, CAUTI, CLBSI

Removing Scope of Practice Barriers

• Advanced Practice Nurses– Perryman Report fully supports the IOM stance that APN increase

access, safety and continuity of care– Average cost of NP visit is 20-35% lower than the average cost of

a physician office visit (MEPS)– No difference in malpractice rates among states

• National Council of State Boards of Nursing

Removing Barriers

• Examining Our Practice-Remember it’s not just APNs…– What you or your colleagues doing that does not require

your RN skill set?– What you or your colleagues not doing that we are great at

doing?• Care Coordination

• Working with State and Federal Regulatory bodies– National Council of State Boards of Nursing

• Transition to Practice

– Texas Medical Association– Peers In Practice

Removing Barriers

• Great Work Being Done!– California Study of Regulations– RWJF-Transforming Care at the Bedside

• Ways to Expand– Health Care Policy-Duty– Informatics– Customer Service-Advocacy– Certification– Education or Academic Partnerships

Collaboration

• Meeting the Challenge to Improve the Care– Our ethical code requires it-Provision 8 “the nurse collaborates…”– Engaging those with similar goals

• Transforming Care at the Bedside• Community Transition Programs• Medical Services/Ambulances• Geriatric

– NICHE

Interprofessional Collaboration

• IHI Triple AIM – Decrease Cost– Increase Satisfaction or the “patient experience”– Improve the overall health of the population

• Community partnerships-Community Health Action Team• HCAHPS questions

• Care Coordination/Transition of Care– Clinical Nurse Leader

• Partnership-Avoid “acute care centric”– Social Services, Pharmacists, Physicians, Home Care, LTC

Nurse Residency Programs

• Not just a “product you purchase”– Advantages of formalized program

• Data/recruiting

• Not Just About Student Placement– Henry Street Project-Public Health

• It’s a Partnership!– AACN/AONE Guiding Principles for Practice-Academic Partnerships

1. Develop Formal Relationships – Advisory committees– Fellowship programs to advance EBP

2. Shared Visions/Mutual Goals– Dedicated Education Units– Externships

Nurse Residency Programs

• Why We Need– Increase recruitment and retention– Decrease cost for orientation and training

• Internships- “not just 15 weeks”– Mentorships– Journey to Professionalism– Teaching to ANA Standards of Care– ANA Code of Ethics

• Get Involved– Preceptor/Clinical Coach

Transition to Practice Model-NCSBN

Increasing the Number of BSNs

Increase the Number of BSN Nurses

• What does this mean and why?– Managing complexity– Advancing EBP/Research– Lower mortality and failure to rescue rates

• Doesn’t mean forget about the ADNs– Pipeline for BSN enrollees– Often best option for minorities or low-income

• Student Experience– Clinical Placement software– Other opportunities/Other industries

Ways to Communicate

• Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas– Strategic Vision

• Academic Partnerships• Recruitment and Retention• Funding and Encouragement

= Success! An increase of 12% in 1 year to 67% rate of BSNs

• Seton– Long-term strategy with Leadership Established Guiding

Principles• Increase BSN hire rate• Increase Nursing retention rates• Increase number of non-BSN nurses returning to school

Call to Action to Universities, Colleges and Hospital Systems• The Doctor of Philosophy

– Leads Research Efforts

• The Doctor of Nursing Practice– Translation and Promotion of Research into Practices– Clinical Specialist

Double Doctoral Prepared Nurses

• Advance Education• Certification in area of Specialty• Attend Conferences• Share locally

Life-long Learning

Prepare Nurses to Lead Change

• TONE/TNA-Improving EHR Education-HIT• Nurses Members of Boards-Not just hospitals• Boardroom presentations on Micro-level changes

– Opinion Polls conducted by RWJF show many believe nurses should have more influence on improving quality of care and preventing errors

• Lean Methodology• Support Shared Decision-Making

Summary

• Keep Texans First• Know your power but more importantly your responsibility• Use Your Resources• Know the Issues• Get Involved

– Are you the Carrot, the egg or the coffee??
