Co-Presenter:
Mary McElroy, RN, BSN, MS
Learning Objectives:
1. Describe how a consistent intentional visit design and communications model can improve overall clinical consistency and patient/family experience
2. Develop a process to implement an intentional visit model with your clinical teams
3. Identify the communication challenges facing clinicians working with end-of-life patients and their families and strategies to overcome them
As length of stay decreases and patient acuity increases, hospices are challenged to ensure that patients/families are ready for the dying process (measured by the FEHC). Patient transitions between teams require consistent care planning, delivery and communication; this is critical to providing a high-quality hospice experience. The intentional visit design and communications model can help your teams improve their care delivery and satisfaction.
