Promoting Respect and Ongoing Safety Through Patient-centeredness, Engagement, Communication and Technology

This overarching project aims are to refine, implement, and evaluate a multi-faceted intervention composed of the Patient-SatisfActive® model, developed by Drs. Ronen Rozenblum and David Bates at Brigham and Women's Hospital, and a web-based Patient-Centered Toolkit (PCTK), developed by Drs. Dykes and Dalal, on quality, safety, and cost outcomes in the intensive care and oncology units at Brigham and Women's Hospital. The specific aims of the project are as follows: * Aim 1: To refine and implement the Patient-SatisfActive® model to promote respect, dignity, and satisfaction of patients, care partners and staff on intensive care and oncology units. * Aim 2: To refine and implement a web-based, Patient-Centered Toolkit (PCTK), comprised of an electronic bedside communication center (eBCC) and a patient-centered microblog, to promote tailored patient and care-partner education, communication, collaboration, and engagement. * Aim 3: To evaluate the relative impact of this intervention compared to usual care on patient reported outcome measures, adverse events (harms), post-discharge healthcare utilization, concordance in understanding the care plan, and satisfaction among care team members (patients/care partners, profession providers). * Aim 4: To identify the barriers and facilitators of implementing this intervention to support dissemination.
