Background: Complex non-pharmacologic interventions containing multiple, or bundled, components can successfully prevent and treat hospital-acquired delirium in older adults. However consistent implementation, and the measurement of compliance, of these bundled interventions can be challenging to sustain in hospital settings especially in presence of COVID-19. Developing workflows with a smaller sub-set of components that are feasible […]

Ideally this process begins at admission and is updated in real time as the patient care plan evolves and discharge needs become known.

Background: The transition of an experienced Registered Nurse into a novice hospital-based Nurse Practitioner (NP) is frequently met with trepidation.

How does one ease the stress associated […]

Previous studies have highlighted the value of integrating measures of provider intuition into predictive models. (1-3) For example, incorporating the Patient Acuity Rating, a Likert-based measure of nurse worry, into the six-variable Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) […]
