1.  Pain
One of the most common complaints through Press Ganey patient feedback reports are painful phlebotomy PIV sticks and nursing PIV sticks.
Pain subcommittee continues to provide feedback to Yan in IT to improve automated pain system audits so pain group members do not have to enter audits manually.
Pain subcommittee focuses primarily on documenting pain however would like to address and focus on creating a standard of practice for documentation as a whole.
New PCA/PCEA policy being worked on
2.  Infection Prevention
Mary Lawanson-Nichols presented mini-causals for CLABSI in ICU.
Infection prevention team has compiled CLABSI audit data – once compliance data is > 95% IP team will revise questions. Compiled data is as follows: In June 87 charts were audited. For ”CVC dressings were changed within 7 days” we were 100% compliant; for “curos caps in place on unused ports” we were 86% compliant, and for CHG bath treatment performed within the last 3 days we were 92% compliant.
3.  Fall Prevention
July fall prevention subcommittee data as follows for 4NW and 5MN (new bed cables):
Armband on: 66%, Fall sign on door: 86%, Safety precautions in place: 91%, Bed connection available 91%, Wall and bed connection attached 77% (100% of beds audited on 4NW; bed cable installation on 5MN not completed), Alarm activated 30.5%, Patient’s understands fall risk plan 100%, Door open 84%
Discussed new questions added to “post-fall” huddle form, to help track patient refusals of fall precautions.
“Falls Promise” flyer discussed. This flyer will be used for high risk patient “teach back” and will be a reinforcement tool.
Bathroom Fall Sign
All RN/CP will enroll in “improving patient outcomes” class. RNs earn 4.5 hours of CEUs after completing on line evaluation.
Avasure (tele-sitting) approved to roll-out.
“CAM” (5NW, 5MN, ICU use this tool)
New Bed connections and wall cables in place. New transport process “gurney only” rolled out– beds to be left in rooms to make sure bed alarm cables stay intact.
4.  Peer Review
Michele reviewed ED meeting etiquette and subgroup binders.

Yan to implement changes to automated audit system.
EPP pain members will discuss at next EPP meeting on August 1st with David Bailey & Jill Scherrey
Health System pain committee is working on revising policy
More data to be compiled; questions will be revised when compliance is greater than 95%. IP team will revise Care Connect question to include “port” on CVCs. Questions for ED/IR/OR and PACU coming.
Fall prevention team will continue to collect data and perform audits to track our success on fall prevention.
Pending availability on forms portal. Betty Lee will f/u.
David Bailey to f/u with color copies to be available for the “My Care Folder.”
Betty Lee will f/u with pre/post fall rates for 4SW (pilot unit)
RNs/CP to enroll.
Guidelines and IT/ISS need to be established.
Need MD collaboration; David Bailey to f/u.
Continue to use “gurney only” rule
Case follow-up letter will now have all participants to assure that recipients know that the group has received the same recommendations.
If a patient at the end of their life isn’t able to verbalize their pain using the 0-10 pain scale, the next best pain scale is PAINAD.
For this case the Peer Review team will follow-up with pharmacy on availability of meds; RNs needs of education on pain documentation; change of shift communication (break relief as well) needs to be better; pharmacy will be added to committee, and end-of-life order set to be implemented. / Standing Item
