What is Rounding with Outcomes? Proactively, engaging, listening to, communicating with, building relationships with and supporting your most important customers (employees, family, patients, physicians, and other departments)
Rounding for Outcomes is NOT… The proverbial wave Management by wandering around Focused on “what’s wrong” Being “out there” Happenstance
Rounding Works Rounding will have the biggest impact on your employee and customer satisfaction results Builds the team – elevates performance Breaks down barriers, fixes systems, ensures right tools and equipment are in place Emphasizes the positive instead of negative

When leaders provide follow up on rounding at their staff meetings, they should say: “During the past 30 days, I have rounded on 32 employees. As a result of my rounding we have been able to acquire 3 blood pressure cuffs, 2 key boards, as well as rework the supply cabinet. I also was able to recognize 10 individuals that you suggested receive recognition. Thank you for your help.”
Round With Patients Set clear expectations Focus on key questions Outline what to do if problems are discovered Closing statement Reward and recognize staff
Questions for Patients Do you know your nurse’s and CNA's name today? Do you know your schedule? How has your nursing care been? Have we managed your pain well? Do you have any concerns or questions?
