The Faculty Nurse Attending Model at the Mount Sinai Hospital.

The ongoing nursing shortage and the ravages of the COVID-19 pandemic have further challenged nursing staff with devastating shortages. This article describes the Faculty Nurse Attending Model, an innovative approach incorporating nursing faculty into staffing and the ongoing interdisciplinary rounds at the Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City. The Mount Sinai Phillips School of Nursing faculty actively participates in the pilot unit to support nursing practice and ensure that the curricula address contemporary practice.

Improved 30-Day Heart Failure Readmissions Following Implementation of an Advanced Cardiovascular Education (ACE) Academy.

Background: Heart failure readmissions are common, though some are preventable through evidence-based management.

Local Problem: Despite outperforming national benchmarks for 30-day readmissions, compliance with an evidence-based institutional heart failure management pathway was inconsistent. The purpose of this project was to reduce 30-day heart failure readmission rates through an educational intervention and an electronic health record (EHR) redesign.

Mobile application to optimize care for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients in a large healthcare system, STEMIcathAID: rationale and design.

Aims: Technological advancements have transformed healthcare. System delays in transferring patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) to a primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) centre are associated with worse clinical outcomes. Our aim was to design and develop a secure mobile application, STEMIcathAID, streamlining communication, and coordination between the STEMI care teams to reduce ischaemia time and improve patient outcomes.

Structural empowerment of clinical nurse managers.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to describe perceptions of structural empowerment of clinical nurse managers (CNMs) in 1 large healthcare system.

Background: The recruitment and retention of CNMs are crucial to the future of healthcare institutions. Understanding the extent to which CNMs feel supported in the work environment and have access to resources, information, support, and opportunities to learn and develop will be beneficial to organizational effectiveness.

Safety in the rehabilitation setting: a nursing perspective.

Patient safety, including keeping patients safe from harm or unintentional injury, is key to shortening the length of hospital stays, encouraging positive patient outcomes, and contributing to the hospital's financial state. Freedom from pressure ulcers, falls, and medication errors is an important component of patient safety. The parallel concept of nurse safety cannot be ignored.
