NAPH Beyond the Basics Webinar April 23, 2013 Carrie Brady, JD, MA
Mary P. Malone, MS, JD
Describe successful strategies used to maintain staff energy and engagement while improving the patient/family experience
Provide practical strategies to hold staff
accountable Identify common pitfalls for managers to avoid
Introductions
How we developed this program ◦ Improve the actual patient experience itself ◦ Improve the process of improving the patient
experience (leading for service)
Program: Management Considerations
Comments, questions, critique
Remember that Quality and Service are INEXTRICABLY linked; it is not an EITHER/OR
AND If you are not providing a great service
experience your care is not as good as it could be and your clinical results are not as good as they could be.
Supply the evidence (especially to the docs).
Improved quality of care/clinical effectiveness
Better medical adherence/compliance
Improved safety Better staff morale Personal/professional fulfillment Reduced staff turnover Fewer employee incidents “Cross-selling” Physician recruitment Improved productivity
Reduced recruitment costs Employer of choice benefits “Premium dollar” Increased market share Improved bond ratings Improved patient retention Increased patient referrals Improved collections Reduced risk of litigation Fewer complaints Increased philanthropy More efficient Increased value Greater profitability Organizational success
“The inclusion of patient experience as one of the pillars of quality is partly justified on the grounds that patient experience data, robustly collected and analysed, may help highlight strengths and weaknesses in effectiveness and safety and that focusing on improving patient experience will increase the likelihood of improvements in the other two domains.”
“Clinicians should resist sidelining patient experience measures as too
subjective or mood-orientated, divorced from the ‘real’ clinical work of measuring and delivering patient safety and clinical effectiveness”.

Assume good intentions ◦ Reinforce relationships
Acknowledge challenges ◦ Patients aren’t always right
Make the goal personal ◦ Connect to staff members' own experiences as
patients and/or loved ones of patients
Celebrate!

Staff did not know what the number meant: Was it a good score or
a bad score? What questions was it
based on? What time period was
included in the score? What could be done to
improve? 14
Listen to patients and staff
Use “appreciative inquiry” Reveal hidden innovation Examine improvement, not just
achievement Put HCAHPS data in context with other
qualitative and quantitative information about the patient and staff experience Preserve relationships by noting what is working well

Build a team and support their work with resources and time to identify, implement, and evaluate improvement efforts.
Consider your past experience: ◦ When you have been at your most successful, what
have you done? ◦ What doesn’t work?
Engage frontline staff in establishing priorities
Provide support for improvement
Reinforce the ultimate goal: better care

experience receives a second trophy to give to a group that supported them

Patient-centered care is often treated as a very vague concept in practice. It is not enough to tell people to “be nice”. Identify specific behaviors (chicken cacciatore scripting, standardization (mass customization)). Exactly what should the “cheeseburger” look like?
What should it ALWAYS look like?
Clearly identify your standards. Are they standards or suggestions? What is your story about why there is or isn’t 100% compliance with standards? (This is all about leadership and accountability; which is the key to service.) Is everyone truly held to the same standards or do some people get a "pass"?
Quick exercise: The “perfect employee” starts tomorrow…..
Include front line staff in decision making at every stage of the process. Respect their wisdom. They have all the best answers and innovations!
Engage the team in proactively identifying and addressing possible barriers rather than arm-wrestling over them.
Remember that the work environment matters. Build relationships among your teams. Reconnect people to purpose and provide recognition.
Are you credible as a leader? Do you follow the same rules you ask your team to follow?
