Description

The purpose of this project is to implement bedside shift report (BSR) and demonstrate its effectiveness in improving patient care outcomes. Currently, Hospital X lacks BSR, missing a crucial opportunity to enhance patient safety, communication, and overall quality of care. Evidence-based practice (EBP) supports BSR as the gold standard in patient handoff, showing its ability to reduce medical errors, increase patient satisfaction, and improve assessments for patient care. This project aligns with the QSEN principles as guiding objectives, ensuring that its implementation prioritizes patient-centered care, teamwork, evidence-based practice, quality improvement, and safety. By integrating BSR, this project aims to elevate nursing practices, strengthen collaboration, and improve patient health outcomes.
