Most hospital patients spend over 80 percent of their stay in the bed. Immobility contributes to higher lengths of stay, increases in falls, pressure injuries and new nursing home placements. All of this reduces overall quality of care and patient satisfaction. On this episode, we examine a health care organization that has embarked on a journey to reverse this trend by getting patients up and moving all across the hospital. ThedaCare participated in the Creating a Culture of Mobility Collaborative, and we’ll provide the details on this podcast.Guest speakers:Kelly Parish, DPTPhysical TherapistThedaCare Amy Shadick, RN, BSN, CV-BCInpatient Rehabilitation Unit ManagerThedaCareHost:Laura Hoffman, DNP, MSN, RN, CPHQPerformance Improvement Program DirectorVizientShow Notes:[[[[[[[[[Links | Resources:Contacting Knowledge on the Go: [email protected]Laura’s email: [email protected]Kelly’s email: [email protected]Amy’s email: [email protected]Subscribe Today!Apple PodcastsAmazon PodcastsSpotifyGoogle PodcastsAndroidStitcherRSS Feed
