In addition to continuing the day to day work of collecting and analyzing data and planning and executing PDSAs teams took a moment to check up, check in, and review looking at a variety of areas including -
1) Who is on your team - who are the folks engaged and contributing to the work of the team? Do you have a physician leader? A nursing leader? An executive leader? A family leader? Who looks at the data as it's collected and are they part of the team effecting change?
2) Celebrate success - an area of the action plan that you've focused on, addressed, and what success looks like.
3) Refocus on one lingering challenge - an area of the action plan that you've focused on, but on which you just can't seem to get traction.
4) Stop five random folks in your unit - are they aware that your unit is participating in the initiative? Do they understand the goals of the initiative?
