Article Synopsis
- Patient and Family Centered I-PASS (PFC I-PASS) is a program that helps families and nurses work together better during hospital rounds to keep everyone informed and safe.
- A study looked at how well this program worked in different hospitals over three years by observing rounds and getting feedback from families, nurses, and doctors.
- The results showed big improvements in teamwork, communication, and safety, especially in larger hospitals and those with more nurse involvement, making the overall hospital experience better for patients and their families.
Objectives: Prior research suggests that errors occur frequently for patients with medical complexity during the hospital-to-home transition. Less is known about effective postdischarge communication strategies for this population. We aimed to assess rates of 30-day (1) postdischarge incidents and (2) readmissions and emergency department (ED) visits before and after implementing a hospital-to-home intervention.

Objective: We sought to understand patient/family and clinician FCR beliefs/attitudes and practices to support implementation efforts.
Designs, Settings And Participants: Patients/families and clinicians at 21 geographically diverse US community/academic pediatric teaching hospitals participated in a prospective cohort dissemination and implementation study.
Background: Effective communication in transitions between healthcare team members is associated with improved patient safety and experience through a clinically meaningful reduction in serious safety events. Family-centered rounds (FCR) can serve a critical role in interprofessional and patient-family communication. Despite widespread support, FCRs are not utilized consistently in many institutions.

Objective: To examine disparities in reported hospital safety climate by language proficiency in a cohort of hospitalized children and their families.
