Case managers developed this QI project as part of an ongoing health care improvement initiative to reduce readmissions. As part of this broader health care improvement initiative, the case managers approached the university about piloting the proj-ect as an academic–clinical partnership. Students who were completing their final semester for a mas-...
The authors created a plan to ensure that the data obtained were complete and accurate. The team used a secured, password-protected shared drive to store all data. Information was accessible to NCM students and clinical partners. Patient data included age, gender, admission date, primary admission diagnosis, number of chronic conditions, and number...
The data collected were limited but did include criti-cal information. Direct patient identifiers were shared only between students and case managers. The data set included de-identified patient characteristics such as age and gender and some personal health infor-mation such as admission dates and diagnoses. The health care institution determined ...
A few contextual factors affected delivery of the intervention. The NCM students spent 4 weeks orienting to the health care system and learning about the service lines and case management con-tacts designed to reduce readmissions. Because of the NCM students’ class schedules, initial outreach and follow-up were not always completed in a timely mann...
This study had some limitations. The team intended to obtain preliminary evidence of the feasibility and effectiveness of ICM services delivered by nursing stu-dents to reduce readmissions for at-risk patients using a pre-/postdesign without a randomized controlled group. Although we compared the readmission rates of program participants and nonpar...
