Abstract
A team-based fall prevention program is vital in establishing teamwork and patient safety standards. The Doctor of Nursing (DNP) Capstone project focused on the lack of a team-based fall prevention program within a Telemetry unit. The project's purpose was to identify and create a change in team perception of teamwork and patient safety to promote the staff's perception of teamwork and reduce the fall rates with injuries in the healthcare settings. The project's aim in relation to the PICOT question is to establish a team-based fall prevention program derived from the TeamSTEPPS 2.0 methodology and Lewin's Change Theory to produce positive outcomes with the team's perception and attitude and to reduce patient falls rates with injuries. The project's limitations include a small sample size of (n=17) participants and resistance to change by few participants that altered before implementation. The findings of the pre-and post- TeamSTEPPS Teamwork Perception Questionnaire (T-TPQ) and the TeamSTEPPS 2.0 Teamwork Attitude Questionnaire (T-TAQ) questionnaires, TeamSTEPPS Team Performance Observation Tool (TPOT), and patient fall rates with injuries indicated an increase in the staff's perception and attitude of the team, an increase in the team's performance by 29.57% and 34.79%, and a decrease in patient fall rates with injuries by 50%. By implementing a team-based fall prevention program, the organization gained insight into utilizing the TeamSTEPPS 2.0 methodology and training to work as a team and prioritize patient safety.
