Reasons for Regulatory Oversight
1. Improve the Quality of Care2. Improve the Quality of Care3. Improve the Quality of Care

The Regulatory Environment Has Changed
1980-2000 Managed Care–Financial focus
2000-Forward Hospital Compare–Quality focus
![Page 4: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Why this is important?
The Old Days Accreditation reviews
were primarily chart audits Interviewed Hospital
Administrators Rewarded intricate and
voluminous Policy Manuals
Today Scrutinize care being
given to current inpatients Talk to staff and patients Stress practice over policy Less focus on Structure-
much more on Process and Outcomes

No Outcomes-
No Income

What to look for in this presentation.
“Action Needed” items in Red Key phrases to know and repeat
back to JCAHO when they ask YOU in Blue
![Page 8: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Medication Reconciliation
The process by which a new patient’s medications (including herbals and OTCs) are reviewed (reconciled) to ensure there are no potential adverse reactions with proposed therapy.
![Page 9: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What JCAHO says…
Goal 8
Accurately and completely reconcile medications across
the continuum of care.
![Page 10: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
And this is what JCAHO wants…1. The organization, with the patient’s involvement, creates a complete list of the patient’s current medications at admission/entry. 2. The medications ordered for the patient while under the care of the organization are compared to those on the list and any discrepancies (e.g., omissions, duplications, potential interactions) are resolved. 3. The patient’s accurate medication reconciliation list (complete with medications prescribed by the first provider of service) is communicated to the next provider of service, whether it be within or outside the organization 4. The next provider of service should check over the medication reconciliation list again to make sure it is accurate and in concert with any new medications to be ordered/prescribed. 5. The complete list of medications is also provided to the patient on discharge from the facility.

And this is how we implement Medication Reconciliation at GWUH.
![Page 12: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Medication Reconciliation
Needs to happen whenever a patient changes location.
Admission Transfer to or from ICU Transfer from another floor Discharge
![Page 13: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Medication Reconciliation
The Medication Reconciliation form was designed to facilitate “med rec” for Admissions and Discharge
Complete the form entirely
![Page 14: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Medication Reconciliation
For Transfers include in your Accept Note a list of the patient’s previous meds and that all new meds have been reconciled.

Hand Off Communication
Currently goes by these names: Report, Sign Off, Sign Out, Run the List
![Page 16: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
What JCAHO says…
Goal 2Improve the effectiveness of
communication among caregivers.
![Page 17: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
And this is what JCAHO wants…
1. The organization’s process for effective “hand off” communication includes: Interactive communications allowing for the opportunity for questioning between the giver and receiver of patient information. 2. The organization’s process for effective “hand off” communication includes: Up-to-date information regarding the patient’s care, treatment and services, condition
and any recent or anticipated changes. 3. The organization’s process for effective “hand off” communication includes: A process for verification of the received information, including repeat-back or read-back, as appropriate. 5. Interruptions during hand offs are limited to minimize the possibility that information would fail to be conveyed or would be forgotten.

And this is how we implement Hand Off Communication at GWUH.
![Page 19: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Hand Off Communication
To provide a standardized approach for communication across the care continuum in an effort to reduce errors and enhance patient safety which includes the opportunity to ask and respond to questions regarding the patient’s care.
The general purpose of this communication approach is to confirm responsibility for patient care, provide critical shift change updates and enhance continuity of care.

Medication Indications Real Simple:
Whenever you write an order for a medication Write the Indication for the medication.
![Page 26: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Medication Indications Real Reason
Nationwide there are thousands of injuries each year due to wrong med and/or wrong patient. Indications are a safeguard.

National Patient Safety Goal No. 2 (cont)
Goal 2 Improve the effectiveness of
communication among caregivers.
Standardize a list of abbreviations, acronyms, symbols, and dose designations that are not to be used throughout the organization.

Big One Coming Up
![Page 32: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Universal Protocol
Otherwise known as the “Time Out”
![Page 33: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
What JCAHO Says
Universal Protocol Wrong site, wrong procedure, wrong person surgery can be
prevented. This universal protocol is intended to achieve that goal. It is based on the consensus of experts from the relevant
clinical specialties and professional disciplines and is endorsed by more than 40 professional medical associations and organizations.
![Page 34: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
What JCAHO Says…
Conduct a “time out” immediately before
starting the procedure as described in the
Universal Protocol.
![Page 35: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
And this is how we implement Universal Protocol at GWUH.
![Page 36: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
1. Conduct a Time Out by verifying:1. Time Out Performed at (time): __________ 2. Correct patient 3. Correct procedure 4. Correct side and/or site 5. Correct patient position 6. Correct implants/special equipment or requirements are
available N/A 7. The above information was verified and all in attendance are
in agreement
2. Complete the Invasive Procedure Worksheet and place in chart.
When doing any invasive procedure on the wards: (peripheral iv, foley, ng tube, and g-tube replacement are not included)
![Page 37: Everything GWUH Residents Need to Know about Regulatory Compliance Presented as Painlessly as Possible by the GWUH Quality Dept.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697bfed1a28abf838cb8fe9/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
The Time Out was instituted several years ago in O.R.s nationwide resulting in a significant reduction in surgical errors. JCAHO is now extending it to all invasive procedures.(If we do not document it…it was not done.)
