Description

This week you will be completing the first two components of the Communication Strategic Plan: Assessment and Diagnosis.

Instructions

The requirements for the outline are as follows:

• Setting the Stage
  1. Assessment
     • Define the problem, challenge or opportunity for improvement:
       • Identify a problem, challenge, or opportunity related to patient safety that you feel could be improved with enhanced communication and or teamwork. (This was completed in Module 1.)
         • Identify any HCAHPS data for your health care facility or patient outcome data collected by the health care organization that can be linked to the identified problem.
       • Describe the applicable work setting, including the following:
         • Organizational /unit description (check the organization’s website for a description of the organization with regard to size, services offered, population served, for-profit or nonprofit. Describe the unit: type of unit, services provided, number of beds etc.)
         • Resources available: for example (but not limited to), human resources (staff), educational resources, equipment, supplies, technology, and leadership.
     • Describe the process by which the target problem, challenge, or opportunity occurs by stating what the process is, who is involved, and when and where it occurs.
     • Identify potential root causes of the problem:
       • Break the problem apart: Perform a root cause analysis using the Root Cause Analysis Chart in Module 1.
       • Create a simple flowchart, or map the process during which the problem, challenge, or opportunity occurs: Write the process steps as they currently occur, identifying who is doing what, when, and with what tools.
       • Study the process to identify a minimum of 2 risk points where things could go wrong and lead to a recurrence of the target problem.
  2. Diagnosis
     • Define the aim (what are you hoping to accomplish) of your TeamSTEPPS communication and/or teamwork strategy.
     • Describe how this strategy will improve the identified problem.
     • Define measurable goal(s).

Here is an example of a measurable goal for a surgery unit experiencing an increase in postoperative infections that implemented CUS strategy to address surgical team handwashing: The surgical unit at XYZ Hospital will experience a 5% reduction in postoperative infection rates from January 1, 2019, to April 1, 2019
