As a staff member in a hospital setting I am very wary of Joint Commission. We are taught that they are there to help make sure working conditions are safe for staff and patients but on days they show up its a mad dash to make sure everything is how it should be to avoid a bad review. I also know staff members who hide went Joint Commission is present in fear they will be scolded for answering a question wrong. I was hesitant to read this article, afraid of how nurses would be portrayed. I was pleasantly surprised to read in this article that the Joint Commission understands that healthcare is a fast paced environment and a lot of the education falls on nurses not just providers. I was not surprised to learn that many errors are caused by inadequate handovers. I have been a night shift nurse giving morning report struggling to keep myself awake and remember everything that needed to be passed off to the next shift then to be laying in bed an hour later remembering something I need to share. I really enjoyed learning about the “I PASS THE BATON” acronym for shift report. I think that this method is very clear and easy to use especially when a shift has been long and hard and minor details quickly slip out of your mind in anticipation of going home. I plan on implementing this strategy the next time I work. I will be able to use these strategies offered frequently due to the diverse population I encounter at work. Overall, I enjoyed this article and learned a lot and I look forward to sharing some of these findings and recommendations on improving these downfalls on my unit so our patients can have more effective discharge education and quality care.
