Great topic. Hourly rounding was an imitative that was implemented on my unit also.
Statistic showed that purposeful rounding improved patient satisfaction (“Purposeful Rounding”, n.d.). A study conducted by Stanford Healthcare showed that patient satisfaction scores increase by 12% when purposeful rounding was initiated. (“Purposeful Rounding”, n.d.). The study also showed a decline in skin breakdown by 14%, a reductions in patient falls by 52% and a 20% percent reduction in the distance nurses walked each day by nursing staff was reduced. (“Purposeful Rounding”, n.d.).
In addition, to the improvement in patient satisfaction. Hourly rounding improved Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) scores
