1 ALWAYS Quiet Quietness of the Hospital Environment Nashville, TN May 14-15, 2013 Vikki Choate, MSN, RN, CCM, RN-BC, CPHQ Studer Group Coach
2 Learning Objectives At the end of this session, participants will be able to: Define the physiological and psychological effects of hospital noise on patients Recall three best practices to decrease hospital noise Describe how Daily Huddles, Hourly Rounding, Bedside Shift Report, and Nurse Leader Rounding may be leveraged to improve HCAHPS quiet at night results
3 Is It a Hospital or a Highway? Alarms on monitors decibel level = 79 Heavy truck traffic decibel level = 80
4 A Patient Perspective Straub Foundation If you have had the pleasure of a stay in the hospital, you know exactly what I mean. Patients rarely get any sleep. Every hour or so the overhead fluorescents flash on as a nurse makes his or her rounds. Pagers sound, machines beep, alarms blare, and cart wheels squeak. Room doors are open and the sound of staff chatter filters in. One eventually leaves the hospital exhausted.
5 Hospital Noise Unnecessary noise is the most cruel absence of care which can be inflected either on sick or well. Florence Nightingale, 1859, Notes on Nursing
6 Healthcare Flywheel Prescriptive To Do s Daily Huddles Bedside Shift Report Hourly Rounding Purpose, worthwhile work and making a difference Bottom Line Results Improved HCAHPS results on Quiet at Night question Leader Rounding on Patients Self- Motivation

9 HCAHPS The Quiet Question During this hospital stay, how often was the area around your room quiet at night? Never Sometimes Usually Always Do we really care only about night time noise?
10 Did You Know? World Health Organization recommends that hospital noise levels should not to exceed 30 db Studies show noise levels in hospitals may range from 53 to 117 db Peak noise levels of a busy surgical floor can exceed 95 db ICUs usually have the highest sustained levels of noise with an approximate average mean equivalent sound level of 56 db Source: Ann R Coll Surg Engl. Noise pollution on an acute surgical ward Mar;90(2):136-9.
11 Why Quiet is Important Did you Know that noise? Increases stress and anxiety levels, escalates fear Elevates cortisol production which increases blood sugar levels and decreases immune responsiveness Causes sleep deprivation which can lead to mood swings, confusion, or delirium Increases heart rate and blood pressure Increases gastric acid levels which give rise to nausea, ulcers, and GERD Increases susceptibility to infections..and this goes for health care workers as well! Source: Nurs Adm Q. The effects of hospital noise Oct-Dec; 34(4):
12 Noise Impacts Critical Communication Noise jeopardizes important communication between patients, families, and healthcare workers Miscommunication may leads to mishaps Mishaps may lead to errors Errors may have profoundly negative effects on our patients and their families
13 What We Say Matters Use key words on admission to manage patient s expectations around noise and rest Develop key words to use proactively during times of construction or renovation Set expectations for key words to be used by staff Adapt key rounding questions for leaders to validate effectiveness of quiet tactics
14 Driving Improved Quiet at Night Results Not new..better! Daily Huddles Hourly Rounding Bedside Shift Report Nurse Leader Rounding on Patients
15 Daily Huddles Develop quiet at night goal Engage staff to identify strategies to reduce noise Incorporate goal and tactics as standing huddle agenda Reward & recognize or coach to gaps in performance Update staff with results regularly
16 Bedside Shift Report Develop daily rest plan with patients Note plan on patient communication board Review effectiveness of plan at each report, adjust as indicated Use key words quiet, rest, and healing environment
17 Hourly Rounding Offer quiet kits Add Pumps to the 3 Ps and anticipate alarms Close patient doors after rounds when safe Follow rest plan developed with patient Bundle care to avoid interruptions and noise Explain rounding at night is a standard of safe, quality care Use key words quiet and rest
18 Nurse Leader Rounding on Patients Obtain specific feedback from patients Act on opportunities to improve Validate individualized rest plan and quiet kit Use key words quiet, rest, and healing environment Reward & recognize or coach to gaps in performance Share findings and trends during Daily Huddles
19 A Case Study in Noise Reduction Mary Greeley Medical Center: 220 bed regional referral center in Ames, IA Quiet at Night HCAHPS outcome lagged significantly behind comparative data Many physical/mechanical noise issues addressed, however no movement in results Needed new strategy to address the people aspect of noise
