What is a professional practice model (PPM)? Why do we need a PPM? Values Mission Vision Philosophy Nursing Care DeliveryCore Values Primary Nursing Resources We have a variety of resources available to provide optimal patient care. As part of a leading university, nurses have access to the latest research and leading edge technology. We have opportunities to consult with experts in a variety of health-related fields including: chaplaincy, child life, food and nutrition services, occupational therapy, pharmacy, physical therapy, medicine, respiratory therapy, social work and speech therapy. Nurses also have autonomy to provide holistic approaches such as: essential oils, music therapy, pet therapy, and the HUSH (Help Us Support Healing) initiative. Professional Relationships and TeamworkRelationship-Based Culture Relational and Therapeutic Practices
Relationship-Based Care The Relationship-Based Care model (Koloroutis, 2004) is the philosophy, way of being, and operational blueprint which shapes our caring behaviors. The model’s sievenprinciples guide the transformation of infrastructure, processes, systems, and practices to support care givers in all disciplines in creating therapeutic relationships with patients and families. Relationship-Based Care identifies three key relationships for the provision of humane and compassionate healthcare. These relationships are the nurse’s relationship with self, team members, and patients and families. We use this order, not to signal priority, but to acknowledge certain relationships dependency on others. Healthy, trusting relationships depend on how individuals relate to themselves. Healthy h patient and family relationships depend on the relationships individuals have both with themselves and with their teams. Principles of Relationship-Based Care Healing Culture – Our healing culture holds all people with respect and dignity. All are supported in reaching their full potential and are valued for their contribution to the health and healing of patients. Therapeutic relationships and a calming physical environment are core components of our healing culture. Loving Leadership – Our leadership is one of service. Our servant leaders share power, puts the needs of others first, and help people develop and perform as competently as possible. A Loving leadership is key ingredient for leaders aspiring to advance a more positive healing culture. Inspired leaders who love what they do and the people with whom they do it, inspire others to greatness. Loving leadership is marked by deep affection and caring for those with whom we work and lead. Love in leadership means truly caring about each person, celebrating successes, as well as having empathy in times of struggle. It includes releasing judgment and forgiving past difficulties. It means being fully present in our interactions. Teamwork – We embrace a shared purpose and work together with trust and mutual respect across all disciplines and departments. Nurses collaborate with all disciplines of the health care team to achieve best patient outcomes. This requires consistent and coordinated care of a patient through a unified plan of care, and information sharing amongst health care team members. Interprofessional Practice – Our clinical professionals are respected and valued for their unique expertise and full scope of practice. Clinical practice is grounded in research, professional standards, and ethics. “Clinical competence” is the combination of both technical and relational competences. We accept that different perspectives of people in multiple disciplines are essential to effective collaboration and optimal patient care and outcomes. We allow for all practitioners to bring their best wisdom to the interdisciplinary group. We follow formula of Responsibility + Authority + Accountability to facilitate greater personal ownership and alignment with and among teams. Care Delivery – We facilitate the ability of each caregiver to know the patient as a person and to provide care based on what is most important to the patient and family. We hold the following three rules:
We believe that designing the delivery system using these simple rules actively promotes the conditions for care that is safe, effective, patient-centered, timely, efficient and equitable. System design – We are continuously improving our structures, processes and relationships to bring quality, safety, effectiveness and efficiency to patient care and the work environment. We are improving our systems to allow clinicians to focus on what is most important, safe and efficient. We approach any change with rigorous methodology and humble and curious attitude. Our just culture framework and the four relational practices of attunement, wondering, following and holding are in place to support a system that is both relationally and technically proficient. Evidence – We have outcomes that show evidence of success, such as Magnet®recognition and the Beacon and Prism awards that are sources of inspiration. Our achievements of actualizing our vision and mission are evident in our nursing practice. We express clear expectations, are recognized and recognize others for the value each brings to the work of the organization, and celebrate successes that continually build commitment and unity. Healthy Work Environment We believe that a healthy work environment is an essential element in creating the context for engagement in the professional practice of nursing. A healthy work environment is actualized through alignment with the six standards for establishing and sustaining healthy work environments identified by American Association of Critical Care Nurses:
Measuring Nurse Engagement Nurse engagement is measured by Press Ganey through the employee engagement survey. UC Davis Medical Center nurses show high engagement and autonomy scores and feel strongly that they have opportunities to influence nursing practice and have the freedom to act in the best interest of their patients. They value the ability to effectively communicate and collaborate with interprofessional teams. They feel valued and believe there are opportunities to learn and further develop professionally throughout their careers. We are engaged in action planning to improve their work environment. Recognition Coaching and Mentoring In addition, as professional nurses we acknowledge our collective role in sharing our knowledge and expertise with our peers through both informal and formal mentoring opportunities. As we move through our careers, we maintain our commitment to providing positive role models for others and obtain new mentors for ourselves as needed.
The Rising Nurse Leader (RNL) program supports and guides our next generation of nurse leaders. Each participant is paired with a nurse mentor who exemplifies nursing leadership and can provide knowledge, support and guidance in navigating the complex and demanding roles in clinical and managerial leadership. This mentorship inspires and gives confidence to the mentee while providing the mentor with a valued colleague. Community Outreach Exemplary Professional PracticeProfessional Growth and Development Professionalism Our nurses support professional nursing practice through the peer review process, through which we examine and ensure adherence to the highest standards of our profession. This process supports many of the attributes of professionalism in nursing at UC Davis Medical Center. Individuals, institutions, and the nursing profession benefit from effective peer review. Participation in the peer review process stimulates professional growth and offers opportunities to set and achieve new goals for ourselves as professional nurses. Advancing our Profession UC Davis Medical Center nurses seek to advance our profession, taking up the charge of the Institute of Medicine (IOM) Future of Nursing Report to act as full partners in the transformation and improvement of health care. We are engaged in shaping the future members of our profession as we share clinical expertise at regional nursing schools on a variety of topics. Wecollaborate with peers and teach our nursing and interdisciplinary colleagues internationally. We provide fellowship opportunities to advanced practice providers seeking to learn from our team. We are engaged in our professional organizations as leaders, board members, and committee volunteers, and actively work to advance our profession. Just Culture Clinical
