RGH NICHE Program Mission Apply NICHE & Magnet evidence-based standards & resources to

build, evaluate & sustain a healthsystem culture of geriatric excellence that improves outcomes

NICHE Magnet Alignment

Identify your Program Strategies

1. Conduct program evaluation studies on building & evaluating geriatric evidence-based best practice standards.

2. Build & sustain the GRN model of care to improve geriatric nursing expertise, competencies & facilitate certification.

3. Facilitate Age matters! awareness, GRN visibility, voice in decision-making, identity & role as a geriatric nursing leader & achievement & documentation of outcomes.

4. Implement geriatric evidence-based best practices to improve patient/family outcomes.

5. Build an effective & supportive work environment that delivers age sensitive geriatric care.

6. Facilitate clinical integration of the NICHE model across Rochester Regional Health System.

7. Collaborate with national NICHE program & other NICHE hospitals to improve the community standard of geriatric nursing excellence. 6

What is?*

Facilitate sense making conversations

Why do you think nurses answered the question(s) that way? Can you give us an example to illustrate-verify-clarify-amplify? What can WE do to improve care & outcomes? It takes a village: ownership-engagement-accountability Did we miss anything or is there something new you would like to add?

71

Listen twice: A “GIAP” voice & a “sense making” voice

This is what our nurses told us about what they know and believe about care of older adults and the

practice environment in which they deliver care.
