Connecting Volunteers to Hospital Goals: An Inpatient Fall Prevention Program
Traditionally, volunteer programs focus on hours and the total number of volunteers, which misses the opportunity to show impact and a connection to hospital goals. In 2023, Mount Sinai Morningside’s goals focused on our values of flow, people, financial stewardship, and safety and quality. For safety and quality, the key performance indicator for 2023 was to reduce the total number of falls by 7%. Inpatient falls result in significant physical and economic burdens to patients and medical organizations. Utilizing volunteers is a cost-effective means to enhance care, help prevent patient falls and contribute to overall hospital goals. In this webinar, we will discuss the importance of showing the impact of volunteer programs and how to focus your inpatient volunteers on reducing falls, capturing data to report back to leadership, and utilizing Lean methods for continuous improvement.
