PROPEL to Quality Healthcare: Six Steps to Improve Patient Care, Staff Engagement, and the Bottom Line

Autor Thomas M Muha, Martha Murphy
en Limba Engleză Hardback – aug 2017
You got into healthcare because you wanted to help people, but quickly discovered providing high-quality care is challenging. Seemingly impossible demands are placed on you and your team. Some coworkers are constantly complaining; others are in their silos doing only what they must to get through the long days. Collaboration is often lacking, and patients suffer the painful consequences. It’s easy to become overloaded with work and overwhelmed with negativity.
This is not how the healthcare profession has to be. There is a new science – Positive Psychology – that studies how people are able to perform extraordinarily well in challenging situations. After a dozen years of research in prestigious medical centers, an evidence-based method for applying this science has been developed. That six step program is PROPEL.
You will read stories illustrating the experiences of doctors, nurses and administrators who learned to use PROPEL to transform their professional life (and, for many, their personal life as well). You will learn how they were able to attain remarkable results with their teams, units and clinics:
• Staff callout and FMLA decreased 75%
• Wait times for chemotherapy infusion reduced 6 hours
• Staff turnover dropped 80%
• Pediatric MRI scheduling driven down from 14 weeks to 10 days
• Bone marrow transplant procedures increased by 50%
• ED diversion due to psychiatric patient boarding virtually eliminated
• Patient fall rate cut by 70%
• Use of agency and travelers nurses abolished
• Patient satisfaction scores up 50%
The cumulative impact to the bottom line has been calculated to be millions of dollars. The most meaningful measure of PROPEL’s success, however, comes from the thousands of dedicated professionals who have expressed heartfelt gratitude for having learned how to recapture their joy for working in healthcare.

Recenzii

"I worked with PROPEL for years. It’s amazing to me what these principles can do to engage a multidisciplinary healthcare team. The units who used PROPEL saw results such as: increased employee engagement scores, decreased falls, and decreased turnover. People started coming to work happy to be there instead of dreading the issues that were bound to come up. PROPEL changed the way that our teams viewed and solved problems. Problems became an opportunity to improve and collaborate rather than a way of bringing the team down. Staff started supporting each other and work became more like family. I’m now the Senior Vice President of Patient Care Services and Chief Nursing Officer at GBMC Healthcare and have already brought PROPEL to this organization because I know about the positive changes it creates."
-JoAnn Z. Ioannou, DNP, MBA, RN, NEA-BC, Senior Vice President - Patient Care Services and Chief Nursing Officer, GBMC HealthCare

PROPEL principles artfully distills essential positive psychology elements and offers efficient techniques; converting theory to action.In this enjoyable read, Thomas Muha, PhD unlocks a pathway to peak performance, accessible even to the busiest professional."

-Brooke Buckley, MD FACS, MedChi, The Maryland State Medical Society, President 2015-2016, Anne Arundel Medical Center, Chief, Division of General Surgery, Medical Director, Acute Care Surgery
"Tom Muha has written a very important book that should be mandatory reading for anyone involved in health care. It combines scholarly research findings with practical advice and strategies for both personal flourishing and organizational success.

-Kim Cameron, Ph.D., Co-Founder, Center for Positive Organizations, University of Michigan, Author, Positive Leadership: Strategies for Extraordinary Performance
