Increasing Referrals to a Community Paramedicine Fall Prevention Program Through Implementation of a Daily Management System.
This quality improvement project was undertaken to improve trauma service referral compliance to an existing home-based elderly fall prevention program through the implementation of a daily management system (DMS). Operational excellence, a hospital-wide initiative, provided the foundation for improvement efforts. This initiative went through a series of 5 plan, do, study, and act (PDSA) cycles and demonstrated significant improvement in referrals from 0% to 100%. Compliance with referrals after the retirement of the key performance indicator remained high at 95.5%. Results from this project provided support for the framework set forth in DMS and PDSA improvement methodologies as a feasible option to implement quality and process improvement projects. Further study in this area is warranted.
