I am in an online program and my course instructor doesn’t have any availability until Wednesday, so I’m hoping you can help me out. I have looked everywhere for the past 2 days, and I cannot figure out how to connect A to B to C. This is a modified quality improvement project..in other words...I’m not really implementing it or presenting it to my facility. I am just going through the steps as if it were a real project. SO...
A: my short term KPI is to have a 10 percent reduction within 6 months with our CAUTI rates within the adult ICU by rolling out a CAUTI prevention program.
B: The benchmark that I chose is the CMS NHSN. Why? That’s where all my research has led me to. I even described how the CAUTI RATES can be calculated at the end of every month using a NHSN formula.
Now I need to show how I will a compare my (fake) projects outcomes in comparison to the benchmarks. I cannot find any data on how my projects outcomes compare to local/state/national levels because the data is not out there for me to find.
Help??
