Item Bedside Interprofessional Rounding: The View From the Patient's Side of the Bed(Sage, 2017-03) Burdick, Kailee; Kara, Areeba; Ebright, Patricia; Meek, Julie; School of NursingBACKGROUND: Bedside interprofessional rounding is gaining ground as a means to improve collaboration and patient outcomes, yet little is known regarding patients' perceptions of the practice. METHODS: This descriptive study used individual patient interviews to elicit views on interprofessional rounding from 35 patients at a large, urban hospital. RESULTS: The findings identified three major categories: 1) about the rounding process; 2) clinical information; and 3) the impact/value of bedside inter-professional rounding. DISCUSSION: Intentionally eliciting and responding to our patients' views of interprofessional rounding may help us design methods that are patient centered and effective.Item The Relationship between Individual and Organizational Characteristics and Nurse Innovation Behavior(2011-07-08) Baumann, Paula Kerler; McDaniel, Anna M.; Braxton-Brown, Gregory; Fisher, Mary L., Ph.D.; Meek, JulieNurses are a key component of the health care system and have the ability to provide innovative solutions to improve quality and safety for patients, while improving workplace conditions, and increasing recruitment and retention of nurses.

The proposed model, The Framework for Study of Innovation Behaviors among Nurses, was developed based on the work by Kuratko, Hornsby, and Montagno and is specific to nursing innovation behaviors.Item Voices of chief nursing executives informing a doctor of nursing practice program(Elsevier, 2017) Embree, Jennifer L.; Meek, Julie; Ebright, Patricia; School of NursingThe purpose of this article is to describe the business case framework used to guide doctor of nursing practice (DNP) program enhancements and to discuss methods used to gain chief nurse executives' (CNEs) perspectives for desired curricular and experiential content for doctor of nursing practice nurses in health care system executive roles. Principal results of CNE interview responses were closely aligned to the knowledge, skills and/or attitudes identified by the national leadership organizations. Major conclusions of this article are that curriculum change should include increased emphasis on leadership, implementation science, and translation of evidence into practice methods. Business, information and technology management, policy, and health care law content would also need to be re-balanced to facilitate DNP graduates' health care system level practice.
