The whole hospital is reevaluating the fall policy and even establsihed a fall team hospital wide. Problem includes the failure of the nurses to have a consistent environmental checklist and fall assesments. Page 1 of 5

We are trying to pilot a program to start a partner approach among CNAs and license nurses to improve call light response time. We also improved our CNA staffing in all 3 shifts. Care plan formulation specifically making it interdisciplinary and indiviualize has been challenging for nurses despite numerous trainings given to them. With the new optimum being established we are working closely with the imed team to change the care plan formulation to make it more user friendly. Unit Supervisor has assigned a staff to conduct weekly audits on care plans especially on individualize care plans. This is a CMS citation. For better compliance, all NSS and Dakin solutions are being provided now in 500cc bottles. Consistent reminders were also given to the nurses for proper labeling and dating of solution to prevent cross contamination. Page 2 of 5

SNU Social Workers researched the audit findings and results show that in the month of April # was admitted for only four days and # pt. expired within seven work days.
