Abstract:
Handing over patient care at the end of a shift is a complex part of nursing practice that is commonly fraught with challenges. Ineffective communication continues to be the leading cause of sentinel events in the hospital setting. In response to this practice problem, this project involved the implementation of a standardized bedside reporting protocol in a surgical unit in line with the best available evidence. The overarching goal of this project was to determine how an end of shift reporting tool would impact communication, involvement of patient in care provision, and continuity of care a

Abstract:
The relationship between hospital length of stay (LOS) and Nurse Case Management (NCM), defined as the coordination of care along a continuum of hospital and community, was investigated. Three groups of discharged patients in the Diagnostic Related Groups (DRGs) of the Respiratory and Circulatory Medical Diagnostic Categories (MDCs) were described and compared: those who had NCM pre-hospitalization (n = 43), those who had NCM initiated during hospitalization or shortly afterward (n = 22), and those who had no NCM (n = 50). The NCM pre-hospitalization group was older and more likely to live alo

Current Canadian research that examines IENs’ experience as they integrate into their workplaces is scarce. With an increasingly diverse Canadian and patient population due to rising immigration trends, a workforce that addresses the needs of the diverse patient population is valuable. Therefor
