How Do CDWs Enhance Quality Improvement Initiatives?
Quality improvement in nursing involves continuously assessing and enhancing healthcare processes to improve patient outcomes. CDWs facilitate this by providing data that can be analyzed to identify areas for improvement. For example, CDWs can help track key performance indicators (KPIs) such as patient satisfaction, readmission rates, and infection rates. By analyzing this data, nursing leaders can develop targeted interventions to address identified issues and monitor the effectiveness of these interventions over time.
