35 Immersion Project Methodology Rapid Process Improvement Model designed to seek incremental changes towards an end improvement goal. Cycles of 90 days will be utilized consisting of learning and action components based on the IHI s Breakthrough Series Model Learning session/huddle webinar Quarterly informational and coaching webinars with the following purposes. Review and discuss data outcomes relative to the project Provide a platform for shared learning, barrier mitigation and sharing of successes Inform project participants of next quarter s interventions Provide resources and opportunity for Q&A 35

36 Immersion Projects CAUTI AIM Reduce Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infections by 40 percent from organizational baseline performance to increase Safety Across the Board. SEPSIS AIM Increase awareness and education for early recognition and intervention of sepsis setting the stage for future development of a program similar to a time critical diagnosis process with opportunities to build a chain of survival from dispatch to discharge. FALLS AIM Reduce falls with or without injury by 40 percent from organizational baseline performance in order to increase safety across the board. READMISSION AIM Reduce all-cause readmissions by 20 percent. Clinical condition focus may include those diagnoses tied to the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program congestive heart failure, acute myocardial infarction, pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and hip and knee replacements. OB AIM Reduce morbidity and mortality from maternal preeclampsia by implementing evidence-based practice criteria to improve management of maternal hypertension. 36
