Abstract

Nurse bedside shift report (NBSR) focuses on patient-centered care, and implementing the change starts with buy-in from management and a strong educational platform. Based on that platform, nurse champions grow to help foster education to their peers. Education and tools were provided to Registered Nurses and Certified Nursing Assistants. The pilot was implemented in 2 phases onto the Medical Oncology unit, and an incentive program ran concurrently. A prepilot revealed the following projected barriers: time to complete NBSR, concerns with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, attending to patient needs, and being able to perform NBSR.
