Bedside Change of Shift Report
We’re All About YOU!
Nurses will change shifts several times throughout the day and night. During shift change, both nurses will see you and the on-coming nurse will learn about your condition and treatments. Because this is all about you, the nurses value your input and the input from your family members you choose to be present. Bedside Report on this unit is done at approximately: 7am 3pm 7pm 11pm

Lessons Along the Way• Changing culture takes time and is hard work.• Nursing and Nurses can play a pivotal role in changing culture.• We continue to better understand the true definition of patient- and
family-centered care/Patient engagement.• It is critical to tie metrics to evaluate the impact of process changes on
patient outcomes.• New processes require ongoing reinforcement, refining and periodic
measurement to validate effectiveness.• Leaders, staff and physicians require ongoing education, updating and
review of Care Transformation concepts.• Continuously bring in new PFAs with fresh perspectives and ideas.
