In the first part of this three-part series, we explored how the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN) Clinical Scene Investigator (CSI) Academy aids clinical nurses in cultivating skills that measurably demonstrate how nonproductive time is a misnomer that interferes with achieving optimal patient outcomes. Join us for part 2, as we examine how the CSI Academy helped one hospital's neurosurgical ICU (NSCU) nurses achieve zero CAUTIs.
