NR 531 Week 6 Discussion Professor Coldsmith and Class, Below is my PICOT P:CMS patients readmitted within 30 days of discharge I:Leadership rounding on inpatients before discharge C:Follow-up phone call 7 days after discharge O:Reduce readmission rate of CMS patients from 25% to 10% T:Over next six months Among CMS patients readmitted within 30 days of discharge, will leadership rounding on inpatients before discharge, compared to a follow-up phone call 7 days after discharge, reduce admission rates of CMS patients from 25% to 10% over the next six months? If this were happening in your organization, discuss: Whom will you include in your task force? What outcomes measures will you audit? Where will you obtain the data to determine your baseline and goal regarding the percentage of readmissions within 30 days of discharge? What specific outcome do you want to achieve? What standard or benchmark will you use for the outcome? What does your organization use as a benchmark for readmissions within 30 days of discharge? Describe the intervention you will use to achieve your goal?
