BEDSIDE REPORTDeena Clevenger BSN, RN and Sheila Connelly MSN, RN
TOP REASONS FOR BEDSIDE REPORT
Patient safety Patient satisfaction Builds teamwork, ownership, and
accountability Allows mentoring for new nurses
(Baker & McGowan, 2010)
Jean Watson Nursing Theory
• The nurses promote health and higher level functioning only when they form person to person relationships.
o Carative #4 Establishing a helping-trust relationship
• Communication includes verbal, nonverbal, and listening in a manner which connotes empathetic understanding.

PATIENT SAFETY
According to Baker & McGowan, “Bedside shift report decreases the potential for
near misses through a transfer of responsibility and trust by using standardized communication” (2010, p 357).
Improves “patient safety by incorporated safety checks into report, such as ensuring there is a suction machine at the bedside and noting allergy alerts” (Trossman, 2009, p 7).
PATIENT SATISFACTION
“Reassures patients that the nursing staff works as a team, and patients witness a safe, professional transfer of responsibilities” (Laws & Amato, 2010, p 71).
Patients feel more empowered.
Patients are more involved.
Patient becomes an additional resource in diagnosis and treatment (Caruso, 2007).
3 OF THE JOINT COMMISSION’S NATIONAL PATIENT SAFETY GOALS ARE UPHELD
1. “Improve the accuracy of patient identification.”
-Checking armbands during report and asking for two patient identifiers.
2. “Improve the effectiveness of communication among caregivers: managing hand-off communications.”
3. “Encourage patients’ active involvement in their own care as a patient safety strategy.”
(Joint Commission Perspectives, 2008)
BENEFITS FOR THE NURSING STAFF
Oncoming nurse can visualize patients immediately and prioritize care for the shift.
Prepares RN to answer MD questions.
Accountability between shifts is promoted.
Improves the relationships of staff between shifts and builds a “teamwork” environment.
( Anderson & Mangino, 2006)
CHALLENGES
Letting go and allowing
change
Cynicism and pessimism
Lack of a shared vision
Confidentiality and privacy
Fear that report will
take longer
TIPS FOR SUCCESS
“Be sensitive to privacy and information shared in front of patient. Discuss sensitive information away from patients bedside.”
Educate the incoming nurses about how to give report.
Exclude opinions and stories, report is a time for facts.
Avoid putting a nurse on the spot in front of patient and/or family.
(Baker & McGowan, 2010, p 358)

• Palliative care patients
• DNR’s• Isolation patients:
MRSA, VRE, pseudomonas, etc
• Possible discharges
• Close observation• One to one patients• 24 hour urine• Wound vac’s• Anything else that

PICO QUESTION
Does the use of a standardized bedside report versus taped report help increase patient satisfaction and decrease nursing overtime usage at the Veterans Healthcare Systems of the Ozarks (VHSO)?
Approval from management as well as U of A professors to begin pilot study. Discussion at both Evidenced Based Practice Committee and Shared Governance Committee
April 1st, 2012 Bedside Report began at VHSO!
DESIGN
Before-after experimental design used.
Independent variable is the method of communication
(taped report versus verbal at bedside)
2 Dependent Variables 1. Patient Satisfaction 2. RN Overtime Usage
DESIGN
Patient Satisfaction Measured by Survey
of Healthcare Experiences of Patients (SHEP) data.
Data gathered pre and post initiation of bedside report.
RN Overtime Usage Overtime use
included the time during change of shift overlap. May include up to 1-2 hours over. Does not include the extra 4- 8 hour shifts that nurses agree to work.
DESIGN
Two acute care nursing units were included in the study (2A and 2B). Both units were performing taped report prior to the study. Starting April 1st, both units transitioned to bedside report.
A standardized communication tool was developed and distributed prior to the initiation of bedside report.
Education was given to all RN/LPN staff members prior to initiation of study via staff meetings and poster presentations.
OUTCOME MEASUREMENT COLLECTION
Sample population Veteran patients hospitalized at VHSO (inpatient setting), Fayetteville, AR.
Inclusion criteria Veterans who respond to the SHEP survey post
discharge.
DATA COLLECTION PLAN
SHEP surveys are mailed to patients post discharge.
Questionnaire includes a total of 53 questions.
It takes an estimated 15 minutes to complete the survey.
We selected 6 total questions directly related to nursing care to include in this study.
In addition to SHEP survey results, we will discuss RN overtime usage results…..

CONCLUSION
RN Overtime Usage will continue to be collected over the next 3 months
SHEP data will be reviewed and collected on the next SHEP report, which will include 3 months of data.
Input from the nursing staff on 2A/2B wards will be unofficially collected at staff meetings regarding their satisfaction with the process.
