4. Quality (IOM, 2001)
Quality- the degree to which health services for individuals
and populations increase the likelihood of desired
outcomes and are consistent with professional
knowledge.
Quality/Cost = Value
Measures – Structure, Process & Outcomes (Donabedian, 1988)
5. IOM 6 Aims of Quality Care (2001)
Efficient
Equitable
Effective
Safe
Timely
Quality
Care
Patient
Centered
6. Safety (IOM,2000)
• Safety
– “Freedom from accidental or preventable injury”
– the first domain of quality
• Patient Safety
– prevention of harm to patients
– critical subset of quality patient care
– Includes:
1. safe care
2. practice that is consistent with current
evidence/knowledge
3. customization
• Measures - difficult to measure due to dependence on selfreporting.
8. Professional Accountability
• There is a social contract between society and a profession.
• Professions are the property of society and are responsible to
society.
• Professions acquire recognition and relevance from society.
• It is society that determines what professional skills and knowledge
are most needed and desired of a profession.
• Society grants professions authority over functions vital to itself
and allows for autonomy in the conduct of their own affairs.
9. Nursing Accountability
• Nursing is a profession and therefore responsible to society.
• Nursing must be perceived as serving the interests of society.
• Professions are therefore expected to act responsibly and mindful
of the public’s trust.
• Self-regulation assures high quality performance and is the
hallmark of a mature profession.
10. Nursing is:
The protection, promotion, and optimization of health and abilities,
prevention of illness and injury, alleviation of suffering through the
diagnosis and treatment of human response, and advocacy in the care
of individuals, families, communities, and populations.
American Nurses Association
11. Errors and Adverse Events
•
•
•
•
98,000/year deaths estimated from medical errors (IOM, 2000)
210,000 deaths/year associated with preventable harm in hospitals (James, 2013:
J Pt Safety).
Error - (process) an act of commission ( doing something wrong) or omission
(failing to do the right thing) leading to an undesirable outcome or significant
potential for such an outcome (AHRQ, 2013).
– Not all errors lead to adverse events.
Adverse Event – (outcome) Unintended physical injury resulting from or
contributing to by medical care (including the absence of indicated medical
treatment) that requires additional monitoring, treatment, or hospitalization, or
that results in death (IHI, 2013).
– Not due to an underlying disease
– Unpreventable
– Preventable
• Negligent – care falling below a professional standard
– Side effects – may not be preventable or a medical error
12. Moving toward a safer culture
James Reason
•
•
Goal: to create a safer culture consisting of:
• Reporting
• Learning
• Flexibility
• Just Culture
Swiss Cheese Model
David Marx
•
•
Just culture algorithm – systems, behavioral choices, injury severity & not
blame-free but just
Core principles:
• To err is human –human errors, systems
• To drift is human – well intentioned, cut corners, fast paced, creates risk
• Risk is everywhere
• We are all accountable
14. Just Culture – Human Error
The single greatest impediment to error prevention
in the medical industry is
“that we punish people for making mistakes.”
Dr. Lucian Leape
Professor, Harvard Medical School of Public Health
Testimony before Congress on Health Care Quality Improvement
15. Just Culture – Systems thinking
“People make errors, which lead to accidents.
Accidents lead to deaths. The problem is seldom the fault
of the individual; it is the fault of the system.
Change the people without changing the system
and the problem will continue.”
Don Norman
Author, the Design of Everyday Things
16. Just Culture – Reckless behavior
“…No person may operate an aircraft
in a careless or reckless manner so as to
endanger the life or property of another.”
Federal Aviation Regulations 91.13 Careless or reckless operation
17. Just Culture
1. Emphasizes quality and safety over blame and punishment.
2. Promotes a process where mistakes/errors do not result in
automatic punishment but a process to uncover the root cause of
the error.
3. Human errors that are not deliberate or malicious result in
coaching, counseling, and education to decrease the likelihood of a
repeated error.
4. Promotes increase error reporting that leads to system
improvements to create safer environments for patients and staff.
18. Proactive Learning Culture
• Not seeing events as things to
be fixed
• Seeing events as opportunities
to improve our understanding
of risk
– System risk
– Behavior risk
19. Blame vs. Accountability
1. Was the individual impaired?
2. Did the individual consciously decide to engage in an unsafe act?
3. Did the caregiver make a mistake that other similar individuals
would make in similar circumstances?
4. Does the individual have a history of unsafe acts?
22. Examples
• Unintentional Error
– RN draws blood, gown slips over tourniquet, finds arm
swollen
• At-Risk Behavior
– RN draws blood, patient complains of noise, takes blood
out of room and labels at desk with wrong label, without
checking 2 identifiers at bedside
• Reckless Behavior
– During medication administration, bar code scanning
alerts nurse to wrong medication, nurse ignores alert and
administers wrong medication without re-checking

32. Staff Perceptions of the Professional Practice
Environment Survey: Internal Evaluation
• Evaluate the effectiveness of the Professional Practice Model based
on eight professional practice environment (PPE) characteristics:
- autonomy
- control over practice
- clinician-physician relationships
- communication
- teamwork
- conflict management
- internal work motivation
- cultural sensitivity
• Identify opportunities for improvement
• Trend data over time
• Provide report card for reflection and future direction
33.
34. Guiding Principles
•
Care delivery should always be: patient and family-focused, evidence-based,
accountable and autonomous, coordinated and continuous.
•
It’s important to know the patient.
•
Inpatient and family care is provided by a designated nurse and physician
who are accountable and responsible for continuity of care.
•
Continuity of the team is a basic precept.
•
Every novice team member deserves mentoring from an experienced
clinician.
•
Every patient deserves the opportunity to participate in the planning of
his/her care.
•
Advancements in technology create opportunity for improved provider
communication and efficiency.

•Implement Discharge
Follow-up Call Program
Relationship-based care
Increased accountability through the attending nurse role
Utilization of Evidence Based staffing and care delivery;
Utilization of the Hand-Over Rounding Checklist
37. Relationship Based Care
• Mary Koloroutis: a model for transforming practice
• 3 Crucial relationships
– Care provider’s relationship with patients and families
– Care provider’s relationship with self
– Care provider’s relationship with colleagues
• Incorporates a formula for leading change with:
– Inspiration
– Infrastructure
– Education
– Evidence
– Bolstered by 5 Cs – clarity, competence, confidence,
collaboration, commitment
38. Relationship-Based Care
Patient safety is most effectively safe guarded when an advocate (most often
the nurse) in the health care system knows the patient, family, and what matters
most to them.
39. Attending Nurse Role
Responsible Nurse/Attending Nurse
Expand staff nurse role.
•
Accountable for patient/family continuity and progression along the
developed overall plan of care from admission to discharge
•
Ensures, along with the Attending MD, that patient care meets the unit’s clinical
standards and vision of patient- and family-centered care
•
Develops and revises the patient care goals with the clinical care team daily
•
Coordinates meetings with clinicians for timely decision making and connects
nurses to optimize handoffs across the continuum
•
Is the primary bedside communicator with the patient and family, discussing
plan of the day, care progress, potential discharge, and answers
questions/teaches/coaches
