Abstrakt: | In a medical specialty clinic located in a rural community, a nursing team identified an opportunity to decrease the time nursing staff spent preparing charts for patients' upcoming clinical appointments. In collaboration with an informaticist, the nursing project team implemented a quality improvement project with a target goal of decreasing the average time spent preparing charts per patient by 20%, without increasing the number of discrepancies in the chart preparation process. The team used the define, measure, analyze, improve, and control framework to identify two interventions that could decrease time for chart preparation. A standardized chart preparation process was developed, and a condensed nursing view was created within the electronic health record. After the quality improvement project, the average time nurses spent on chart preparation per patient decreased by 18% after the standardized process and 16% after the condensed view was implemented.
