How much time will it take to participate in Advancing Excellence?
• Registering in the Campaign may take as little as 10-15 minutes. • Data on the clinical Quality Measures (Pressure Ulcers, Restraints, and Pain) is available to the Campaign through your MDS data entry, so will not require any data entry directly to the campaign on your part. • Entering data for your organizational goal(s) on a monthly or quarterly basis will take less time as you become more familiar with the data-collection tools. The benefit is that you will receive immediate feedback concerning your progress. • Additional participation time is what you would spend in improvement activities. You are likely to find that working toward your Advancing Excellence goals will become an integral part of your overall quality improvement efforts.
