• 427 licensed beds
• Average daily census = 200 inpatients
• 500+ physicians on staff
• 2700 employees
• Teaching hospital – GME program
• Suburban location 10 miles SW of downtown Chicago

Sepsis Quality Project Overview
• Sepsis is leading cause of inpatient mortality in acute care hospitals in the U.S.
• Sepsis is a time-sensitive diagnosis; sepsis resuscitation bundle was
developed and implemented in the ED.
• Sepsis steering committee reviewed literature, performed gap analysis, and
created a “Sepsis Alert” process.
• Simple one-page order set created / Focus Study in Midas+.
• PDSA techniques were used to foster timely protocol and implementation
process improvements.
• DataVision sepsis mortality outcomes studied and reviewed – Pre- and post-implementation mortality outcomes reviewed [Baseline phase versus Sepsis
Protocol Implementation Phase]
– Benchmark reviews

Heart Failure Readmissions
Nurse Transitional Coach Model
Reducing Readmissions
• Upon admission we establish a mutually responsible relationship with patient and family; patient-centered and specific
• Assess the patient’s understanding, goals, and needs (transportation, caregivers, money for medications …)
• Individualize each patient’s care and liberate resources needed
There is no single answer for our patients. They are all different, with their own story and circumstance, their own vision of quality of life.
The transition coach is their teammate, coach, facilitator, organizer, planner, teacher, and partner, always available to help with even their most
fundamental need of respect, trust, and consistency. The transition coach is the voice that is always available for inpatient and outpatient.
Nurse Transition Coach Model,
A Patient-centered Approach
Nurse Transition Coach Model
• Grounded in Jean Watson’s theory of human caring emphasizing rapport and trust building with patients and their families
• Establish a care continuum hand-off with bidirectional communication to ensure shared accountability for collaborative decision making
– Multidisciplinary rounds
– Patient/caregiver follow-up within 48 hours of discharge and weekly for 30 days
– Hand-off to complex care managers after 30 days
– Homecare case manager weekly report
– SNF or subacute weekly report
• Process improvement
– Bedside postreadmission meeting with transition coach, CNO, CMO, case management
– Readmission Review Weekly Meeting and root cause analysis of all readmissions
– Monthly Readmit Care Meeting with community care, home care, social work, case management, quality, transition coaches
Nurse Transition Coach Model
• Receives a starter pack of discharge medications regardless of ability to pay
• Discharged with a follow-up appointment within 72 hours
• Given access to affordable transportation for physician visits (that is, $2 a ride)
• Referred to homecare and seen with 24–48 hours of discharge with recommended visit frequencies
• Bedside report/debriefing for each readmission at 8 a.m. with the Readmit Care Team
• Primary care physician intervenes at readmission to treat and discharge in observation status
ED Readmission Alerts
• ED alert sent to identified healthcare team members that former core
measure patient (within 30 days) has presented in the ED.
• Healthcare team evaluates and treats patient by using information from
previous (index) admission.
• When clinically appropriate; readmission may be avoided.
• All trigger alerts are stored in Midas+ for further clinical evaluation and
performance improvement.
