Strategic Goals 2006-2008
UWHC Nursing Strategic Goals Deliver excellent patient care across the continuum which is evidence based
and fiscally responsible. Create a professional practice environment which supports clinical nurses
characterized by collaborative governance, participative decision-making and a commitment to professional development.
Provide superior customer service to patients and their families. Identify and act upon opportunities to advance collaboration with the
University of Wisconsin School of Nursing. Enhance operational efficiency by minimizing barriers to patient access and
streamlining patient throughput. Apply the power and potential of technology and informatics to support
delivery of superior care and enhance the effectiveness of professional nursing.
Recruit, retain and develop nursing leaders in clinical practice and clinical management.
Create and nurture a spirit of inquiry in all nurses from the systematic evaluation of one’s own practice, to the translation of research findings into practice and contribution to established programs of research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Nursing.

UWHC Professional Practice Model
9
Practice Model Update: Nursing Care Delivery System
The primary nursing model at UWHC continues to be mature, but still has the potential to be more substantive.
Primary nursing is an essential component of the interdisciplinary model of care.
10
Professional Practice Model: Interdisciplinary Collaboration
Clinical nurses continue to report high satisfaction with “physicians appreciate what I do” in the NDNQI survey.
We continue to address concerns related to improving communication and relationships between nurses and physicians as necessary.
11
Professional Practice Model: Evidence Based Practice
The Nursing Practice Council completed three EBP guidelines for:– Catheter associated UTI– Care of patients in isolation– Care of patients in restraints and use of patient safety attendants
12
Professional Practice Model: Clinical Advancement & Recognition
The recognition activities for National Nurses’ Week were successful.
Leah Curtin, RN, FAAN was the keynote speaker.
Genevieve Nicol-Sey, BSN, CCRN, CNRN, RN received the Primary Nursing Award.
The clinical advancement program design was completed.
13
Professional Practice Model: Clinical Advancement & Recognition
Peggy Wiederholt, RN, Head and Neck Oncology nurse coordinator received the inaugural American Society for Therapeutic and Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) Nurse Excellence Award.
UWHC nurses outscored peers at 27 academic medical centers in their knowledge and treatment of pressure ulcers, sleep, incontinence and use of restraints in the Geriatric Institutional Assessment Profile funded by the Hartford Institute at NYU Division of Nursing
Dianne Danis, MS, RN, NEA-BC, FAAN, Director of Nursing Practice Innovation, was inducted into the American Academy of Nursing.
Dr. Paul Harari, Jack Fowler Professor and Chairman of the Department of Human Oncology at the UWHC and UW Carbone Comprehensive Cancer Center and PeggyWiederholt, RN
Dianne Danis, MS, RN, NEA-BC, FAAN, Director of Nursing Practice Innovation
14
Professional Practice Model: Clinical Supports
The HealthLink design and implementation benefited tremendously from the leadership of the clinical nurse specialists, nursing education specialists and the nursing informatic specialists. Two major applications were installed:– Clinical Documentation– CPOE
The AFCH Pain Clinical Nurse Specialist has continued to develop clinical nurses as pain resource nurses and has standardized care of children having painful procedures.
15
Professional Practice Model: Organizational and Managerial Structure
The collaborative governance structure received outstanding reviews from the Magnet appraisers.
The Advanced Practice Nursing Council was launched.
16
Collaborative Governance Structure
17
Non Clinical Supports
Support from non clinical areas continue to be a strength for our organization, particularly environmental services and facilities planning.
18
Recruitment and Retention of Professional Nurses
Steady progress has been made in both the recruitment and retention of professional nurses.
The RN vacancy rate continues to decrease and this has a positive impact on UWHC operations and on nursing sensitive outcome variables.
The total RN vacancy rate as of June 2009 was -3.4%.
The use of traveler and agency nurses was 19.0 FTE YTD across the entire organization.

Recruitment and Retention of Professional Nurses
UWHC continues to be dependent on new to practice nurses but successfully recruited more experienced RNs in FY09.– FY 2008 hires-289 FY 2009 hires-259
101 experienced RNs (35%) 70 experienced RNs (27%)
166 new to practice nurses (57%) 163 new to practice nurses (63%)
22 per diems (8%) 26 per diems (10%)
23
Registered Nurse Workforce Planning
Nurses continue to practice part-time at UWHC but 59.87% now work .9 or greater FTE.
The mean age of registered nurses is 39.1 at UWHC with a range from 21.4 years to 68.4 years.
The bell shaped distribution of the age of RNs in direct care continues to be an advantage for UWHC.
We have a substantial mid-career brain trust. The aging of the RN workforce and the numbers of RNs projected to
reach retirement are significant issues for the organization especially in the ambulatory, surgical services and psychiatric nursing areas.
Ambulatory positions are predicted to fill easily with transfers from inpatient areas. New graduates will be the primary source of staff for inpatient and surgical services areas.
7 of 62 eligible RNs retired in FY09. The average age at retirement remains 60 years of age.

Nationally recognized leaders who joined us in the Leading and Managing in Clinical Practice Discipline were:– Susan Adams, DScN, University of Iowa, Director of the National Nursing
Practice Network– Leah Curtain, RN, FAAN– Katharyn May, DNSc, RN, FAAN
38
Nursing Sensitive Outcome Measures
The American Nurses Association named UWHC the #1 Academic Medical Center for Nursing Quality.
There is a very concerning trend in satisfaction with nursing care with all practice areas ending FY 2009 below the 90th percentile.
A variety of analyses and interventions are underway. Themes related to the impact of HealthLink and the
financial environment in FY 2009 have emerged. The following slides show the current status of nosocomial
pressure ulcers, falls and patient satisfaction with nursing.

Staffing Effectiveness
We continue to evaluate our staffing effectiveness and submit our data to national benchmarking programs.
We have continued a number of strategies to meet these requirements:– UWHC-wide staffing plans are developed at the
cost center level– Staffing variables are reviewed in all RCAs
47
Staffing Effectiveness
Strategies continued:– Each inpatient unit reviews monthly data on
three clinical indicators (falls, pressure ulcers and patient satisfaction with pain) and two human resource indicators (direct care vacancy rate and direct nursing hours per patient day).
– Staffing level related performance metrics include the RN vacancy rate, NHPPD, RN skill mix and nursing sensitive outcome variables.

Conclusions
We have had an outstanding year– Magnet Recognition– ANA Quality Award
The UWHC nursing and patient care services team continues to make substantial, quantifiable progress.
– Significant increase in capacity, particularly ability to accept transfers– Improved financial performance– Improved patient satisfaction– Improved RN satisfaction
RN turnover is continuing to decrease and this is being driven by improvements in the practice environment and the economy.
UWHC has a very large number of RNs with less than three years of experience. Continuing development of them as well as experienced nurses.

Future Challenges
Addressing the recommendations of the Magnet Commission.
Positioning nursing and UWHC for success in the world of health care reform and innovative fiscally responsible practice.
