Falling into the Snake Pit

What staff think about the Huddles
What do you like?
• Increased communication and awareness
of practice
• Involvement of multiple perspectives including QI & ICP.
What have you changed?
I am more conscious about 4 moments of HH
“I use way more Isagel”
“I am more comfortable telling others to wash their hands”
“Have A Squirt”

Staff/Physician Engagement Successes have been due to:
Management Support
Commitment of Team
Consistency of huddles &
summaries
Regular audits

The Art of Hand Hygiene is very elusive and it is difficult to achieve without focused efforts to change culture.
“The Art” will hopefully be within reach for CSICU with ongoing efforts from the unit.
