Actual (reported)The purpose of this project is to refine, implement, and evaluate a multi-component intervention that achieves sustainable and meaningful impact on healthcare quality, safety, and costs while ensuring dignity and respect for adult oncology and intensive care patients and their care partners. The PROSPECT (Promoting Respect and Ongoing Safety through Patient-centeredness, Engagement, Communication, and Technology) framework will achieve this by enhancing the patient-provider relationship and introducing patient-centered approaches to multi-disciplinary communication and patient education. The PROSPECT framework is based upon a validated structured, team-work training model and novel web-based technology. The overarching goals of this project are to achieve the following:

Actual (reported)Preventable Harms (Adverse Events) in the Acute Care Setting
Preventable adverse events in the acute care setting include medication errors, patient falls, veno-thromboembolism, hospital acquired infection, central line related bloodstream infection, ventilator associated pneumonia, catheter associated urinary tract infection, newly acquired physical harm/injury. We will measure the rate of adverse events acquired from the time of admission to study units through hospital discharge. Using an adaptation of the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) Global Trigger Tool, we will randomly sample charts of enrolled patients from intervention and control units during the pre-intervention and post-intervention periods to identify adverse events. The length of hospital stay for patients admitted to medical intensive care and oncology units at our institution is variable, typically ranging from 5 to 30 days.
Enrolled patients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, typically ranging from 5 to 30 days.
Patient Experience & Satisfaction & Engagement
At time of transfer/discharger from study unit and up to 45-days post-hospitalization
Healthcare Resource Utilization
From time of hospital admission through 30-days post-discharge
Care Plan Concordance
Approximately 48-72 hours after admission to study unit
Perceptions of Communication/Collaboration
Once during baseline (pre-intervention) and post-intervention periods, approximately 12 months
Patient Safety Climate
Once during baseline (pre-intervention) and post-intervention periods, approximately 12 months

The PCTK provides patients/care partners tailored health information regarding conditions, test results, and medications presented at a consumer health literacy level, and the ability to communicate with care team members via "patient-facing" tools accessible from bedside tablet computers. The PCTK allows patients to post questions to their care team members via a patient-centered microblog. The microblog facilitates development of a collaborative patient plan of care. The "provider-facing" PCTK includes tools that engage care team members in 1) completing a safety checklist and viewing a safety dashboard; 2) viewing patient-inputted information (goals, preferences, concerns) regarding the plan of care; 3) identifying clinical problems, care team goals, and patient schedules for education and multidisciplinary communication; 4) messaging patients on the "patient thread"; and 5) discussing patient's plan of care with other providers via the "provider thread".

The Patient-SatisfActive Model is a structured, pro-active, patient-centered care model that aims at improving patient satisfaction by enhancing the degree to which patients' needs, concerns and expectations are met and by preserving dignity and respect. The model comprises steps that enhance interpersonal communication between clinicians and patients, incorporates clinicians' efforts to ascertain, address and document patients' needs, concerns, expectations and perceptions throughout hospitalization, and includes elements that empower and engage patients in their care.
