  3. Room for Improvement To increase the rates for those quality measures specific to the Pneumonia Core measure: • Antibiotic timing • Appropriate Antibiotic Administered • Adult Smoking Cessation Counseling • Blood Culture Collection • Pneumococcal Vaccination: > 65 years of age • Influenza Vaccination: > 50 years of age Confidential: For Quality Improvement Purposes Only

Appropriate antibiotics in ED Omnicell and as floor stock Daily monitoring of all inpatient pneumonia patients “No Flu” posters to be placed in patient rooms (October-December) Pneumovax/ Influenza in-services to inpatient units Pneumovax/ Influenza screening orders added to Epic discharge instructions Participation in Patient Safety Fair Plan Confidential: For Quality Improvement Purposes Only

  6. Next Steps • Continue to provide in-services for inpatient units to increase compliance of Pneumococcal and Influenza vaccination screening and administration • Continue to monitor effectiveness of vaccination orders as part of the discharge summary instructions in Epic • Create individual nurse specific reports for vaccine screening and administration on a quarterly basis Confidential: For Quality Improvement Purposes Only
