What is Care Model Redesign?
Redesigning our care model to ensure • quality patient care• coordinated care
(patient/family/care team)• financial resilience
Care Model Redesign Objectives
Communication Coordination1. Perform a comprehensive patient
history assessments – IPA (Interdisciplinary Patient Assessment)
2. Communicate needs across settings3. Collaborate with team members4. Participate in care planning
w/patients & family-every shift5. Plan for smooth discharge
1. Enhance communication among the key interprofessional team members
2. Facilitate the proactive coordination3. Identify progress4. Identify and address barriers5. Enable and empower the care team6. Improve communication with patient
and family
Lamb, 2014, p. 85
Care Model Redesign Process Steps
1. Selected critical care providers and defined the work that led to improved experience, safety, progression
“RN Coordinator of Care”
2. Selected critical processes that impact Patient Experience, Patient Safety, Patient Progression
3. Developed and documented standard work in selected critical processes that captured best practices
4. Trained front line nursing staff
Identified Communication Opportunities
1. Patient/family • What’s important to the patient• Making it visible
2. Nurses• Hand off with emphasis on patient’s goals
3. Interprofessional team• Involvement in patient progression
4. Leadership• Physician Advisors• Clinical Lead• Management
RN Coordinator of Care
Registered Nurses are the hub of the patient
experience & coordinate patient
care throughout the care continuum.

What is a Clinical Leader? • Facilitates daily Care Briefings• Coaches staff with progression of care• Collaborates with Interprofessional
leaders• Identifies opportunities for
improvement
Who: Bedside RN (coordinator of care & also voice of the patient) and Interprofessional team membersWhat: Discusses agreed goals, any barriers to accomplishing the plan, & what matters to the patientWhere: In hallway of unitWhen: Monday thru Friday scheduled time (in the morning)How: Clinical Leader facilitates group
Benefits to InterProfessional Teams

CMR 2.0: Identified an opportunity …inclusion of other Interprofessional (IP) team members
• Revisited current CMR (nursing focused)• Adopted/adapted standard work for the roles of 6 critical departments
(Care briefings’ participants)• Designed standard work for handoff, care briefings, workflow• Biggest win: Entering and exiting a room standard work

System
What is MemorialCare Hour?
Who: Nurse Leaders Interprofessional LeadersWhat: Touch point by leaders with each patient/familyWhere: At patient bedside When: 2-3 pm Why: #1 Impact patient experience
#2 Ensure sustainment of standard work#3 Address any gaps and develop a plan
What is a Lean Management System?
• A system that guides and directs the actions and efforts of the team that promotes personal and organizational success
• The goals of a Lean Management System is to*Develop People
*Solve Problems*Improve Performance
Identified Operational Drivers
• Patient Experience– Achieve a 5 star rating from CMS– Achieve top box scores for patient experience in all categories
• Response, Courtesy & Respect, Pain Management, Education
• Patient Safety– Prevent Hospital Acquired Conditions (HAC)
• Falls, CAUTI, CLABSI, VTE, and HAPI, etc.– Maximize pay for performance incentives
• Patient Progression– Reach LOS annual goal
ESP: Experience…Safety…Progression
“ESP” is very descriptive of someone (or a
group) knowing what is going to
happen and when it is going
to happen
Use Lean methods,
mindset, and management
system to predict/affect the
results and outcomes that specific actions will produce.
Ideal Behaviors = Ideal Results
Leader (ALIGN) Manager (ENABLE) Staff (IMPROVE)• Routinely set and share
vision• Model/coach
management • Know if/where we’re
winning or losing today• Identify opportunities to
share/spread learning
• Own unit level goals and outcomes
• Communicate purpose & meaning of systems
• Model/coach staff to discover root cause, find countermeasures, and improve processes
• Respond to real time data• Acknowledge problems for
permanent problem resolution
• Own and operationalize patient plan of care to provide an excellent patient experience
• Use and improve the tools • Measure and monitor process
performance• Identify problems/issues and
offer potential solutions • Adhere to operational
standard work
Leader/Manager (shared) Manager/Staff (shared)• Adhere to leader standard work• Regularly go to gemba to identify & remove
barriers• Recognize and celebrate • Use and improve the management system
• Remove barriers (patient care)• Recognize and celebrate

How to start?
1. Identify Key Performance Indicators2. Review and analyze your results3. Determine the gap4. Perform Root Cause Analysis to identify what processes impact results 5. Select critical processes
● Measure daily ● Make it visible ● Huddle daily
6. Determine the plan to address the gap in reaching target (plan for today and ideas for tomorrow)

How do you know how your area is doing?

Step 1: Pull a card Step 2: Observe all steps, assess and coach
Step 3: Document and display the results…PDSA
Leader Standard Work (Leader’s Routine)
• Leaders are held accountable in performing their standard work
Tier 1- AUMActivity Frequency (minimum) Purpose
DAY
AUM to AUM/RC hand off Daily To share information (as per standard work) to oncoming AUM/RC to ensure a safe and
effective hand off
Care Briefings Daily To cover staff RN for immediate patient need otherwise observe
the process to determine how the unit is operating and provide
resources as needed
MemorialCare Hour DailyPerform assigned zone patient interviews and address any concerns, perform standard work observations, complete audit form and place results on control board as appropriate; engage with staff/families
Control Board Huddle DailyLead huddle (RC to lead when
there is no AUM coverage) adhering to standardized agenda
Continuous Improvement Weekly Triage ideas, assess, assign, account Just Do Its
Standard Work Audits Daily To observe the entire process, evaluate adherence, give
feedback/coach
NIGHT
AUM to AUM/RC hand off Daily To share information (as per standard work) to oncoming AUM/RC to ensure a safe and
effective hand off
MemorialCare Hour (night version) Daily
Perform patient interviews and address any concerns, perform standard work observations, complete audit form and place results on control board as appropriate
Control Board Huddle DailyLead huddle (RC to lead when
there is no AUM coverage) adhering to standardized agenda
Standard Work Audits Daily To observe the entire process, evaluate adherence, give
feedback/coach
Update control board graphs with new graph and place weekly average on Tier 2 board

Transformation: Culture Change
“ I feel I am not fully doing my job if I am not checking for a fall risk band and to see if the bed alarm is on when I visit a patient.”
Shanshan SongRegistered Dietician
Transformation: Culture Change
“When I went to Diane (director) with a problem…she would just fix it. Now she coaches me how to solve the problem.”
Penne Baray, RN, Assistant Unit ManagerBirth Care Center
Transformation: Culture Change
“Leader Standard Work has shown me that it is better to flame the embers of ideas and solutions of the front line staff than to try to be a firefighter.”
Mary Margaret Montgomery, PTDirector of Rehab Services
Transformation: Culture Change
“Involving your team empowers all of us together to improve clinically, professionally and personally …..all that benefits the patients and families.”

Top 10 Ah Ha’s
#10 Don’t limit the ability to standardize with “we are different” #9 Starting small is essential to going big #8 Be sure to include the entire Interprofessional team #7 Don’t depend on local heroes; make it a team effort #6 Don’t expect this to be perfect; be patient with the process #5 Leadership must drive the efforts and role model the behavior#4 This takes discipline#3 Just because standard work is created, doesn’t mean it is being followed#2 Everyone must know the Why and What’s In It for Me#1 Staff must understand the value in everything they do and how it impacts
patient care… it is essential to always keep the patient/family in the center
Next steps
