Using Simulation to Hardwire Bedside Shift Report.

Numerous attempts to move nursing handoff to the bedside failed within our organization. Upon retrospect, previous attempts lacked standardization, coordination, and clear expectations. With emphasis on implementing patient- and family-centered care to increase patient experience scores, we developed a standardized staff training methodology using didactic and simulation to address staff barriers to adoption, a standardized implementation process, and a process to hardwire the practice.
