  7. The journey……………

  8. Challenges………….. Practicalities of Implementing Barriers to Implementation Definitions

  9. Board Challenges………….. • The current media climate • Risk Management Systems • Organizational Cultures • Data capture • Leadership challenge • Allowing local autonomy • Interpreting the definitions without Specialist Nurse support • Responding to the increasing acuity & dependency of patients • Quality improvement journey ‘learning the lessons, measuring for improvement’ Barriers to Implementation

  10. Challenges………….. Our patient is the most important visitor on our premises. He is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work. He is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business. He is part of it. We are not doing him a favour by serving him. He is doing us a favour by giving us an opportunity to do so. Mahatma Gandhi (Amended)

  11. Operational Challenges…………..

  12. Operational Challenges………….. • When is a pressure ulcer not a pressure ulcer • Are all pressure sores reported...how do we really know? • Are there unavoidable pressure sores? • Device related sores, especially in Critical Care • Some patients will fall as part of their rehabilitation package • Will require continually testing and refinement Practicalities of Implementing

  13. Definitions………….. • To continue to work to develop a SOP • What to report / what to exclude • Assurance of data capture • Clarity of how to sample for patient and staff experience data • Real time identification of harm • How to maintain competence as numbers reduce…PU can be difficult to diagnose • Falls – recognising the seriousness of the impact Clarification…

  14. Learning lessons………….. • ‘It is perhaps not surprising that staff morale is adversely • affected when untoward incidents such as Falls and Pressure • Ulcers are experienced by patients in our care’. • ‘The implementation of intentional rounding has arisen from • the Trust’s focus on reducing harm’ • ‘We acknowledge the importance of ensuring we are • accurate with our risk assessments’. • ‘The impact of introducing a Falls Specialist is evident by the • significant reduction in falls and also in the level of harm caused • as a result of a fall • ‘A patient commented that by the time the drinks were • Served to them the drink was cold. Staff bought a number • of thermal flasks for the hot water so drinks could be served • still fresh and hot’ Quotes…..
