  2. QSEN What does QSEN stand for? • Quality and Safety Education for Nurses History • Started October 2005 • Funded by The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation • In 3 phases

  3. QSEN • Phase 1: Six competencies were indentified. Five competencies from the Institute of Medicine (IOM) and safety • Phase 2: Pilot schools integrated the six competencies into their nursing programs. Website for QSEN was launched at www.qsen.org • Phase 3: Faculty expertise was developed to teach competencies

  4. QSEN To prepare future nurses so they will have knowledge, skills, and attitudes (KSAs) needed to continually improve quality and safety in healthcare systems (QSEN, 2012).

  5. QSEN How do we accomplish this? • Six competencies were defined in Phase 1 • Patient-centered care • Informatics • Teamwork and Collaboration • Evidence-based Practice (EBP) • Quality Improvement (QI) • Safety

  6. Patient-centered care “Recognize the patient or designee as the source of control and full partner in providing compassionate and coordinated care based on respect for patient’s preferences, values and needs.” (QSEN, 2012) Care conferences Resident and Family Council Rounding with a Purpose

  7. informatics “Use information and technology to communicate, manage knowledge, mitigate error, and support decision making.” (QSEN, 2012) CPOE Cerner Health Medx

  8. Team Work and Collaboration “Function effectively within nursing and inter-professional teams, fostering open communication, mutual respect, and shared decision-making to achieve quality patient care” (QSEN, 2012) • SBAR • Daily check-in • CENA shift to shift reporting tool

  9. Mandatory Influenza vaccinations for all staff Evidence-based practice “Integrate best current evidence with clinical expertise and patient/family preference and values for delivery of optimal health care” (QSEN, 2012)

  10. Quality Improvement“Use of data to monitor the outcomes of care processes and use improvement methods to design and test changes to continuously improve the quality and safety of health care systems.” (QSEN, 2012) Collection of data Policy's and Procedures

  11. Safety “Minimizes risk of harm to patients and providers through both system effectiveness and individual performance.” (QSEN, 2012) • Use of technology to improve safety. • Standardized practices to increase safety and decrease potential harm to patients.

  12. QSEN In my role as a staff nurse on the acute and long term setting, I use QSEN practice standards every time I work. When I receive and give report I am practicing hand off communication . When I pass meds, change dressings, obtain lab specimens, assess patients, use bar code scanning, and read back physician's verbal orders, I am following policies and procedures set by nursing practice standards.

  13. QSEN In my role as a MDS Coordinator for the Rehab and Nursing Center I mostly use the patient-centered care QSEN competency in what I do. I assess the Resident, assist in coordinating care between all other members of the interdisciplinary team, and involve family/significant others in their plan of care with respect of the Resident’s needs, preferences, and values.

  14. QSEN Conference QSEN National Forum   |   May 30 - June 1, 2012 Innovation to Transformation The 2012 Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) National Forum will take place in Tucson, Arizona on May 30 - June 1, 2012.
