Patient Satisfaction Team
Problem
Patient’s don’t know their daily plan of care or who to ask.
Project Goals
- Doctors must consistently introduce themselves.
- Team Cards and "Get Involved" pads must be readily available on units.
- Patients should feel comfortable asking questions about their plan
- Residents should feel empowered to answer questions about the plan or be comfortable with using "I don't know."
- Patients should know th eroles of the various individuals comprising their medical teams.
Results
- Improved familiarity with the care team and their daily plan of care is important to patients
- Housestaff agreed that there is a need to improve these aspects of care
- Housestaff felt that one way to achieve better familiarity with the team is with the use of team cards
