As requested, the RNs will participate in data collection and documentation audits to assist the Nursing Department with quality improvement measures.
• Patient Safety - Each RN is responsible to promote safety for all patients served by following all applicable department policies and procedures. RNs will understand and contribute to the initiatives that are in place to improve the safety of the patients served. Additionally, a culture of patient safety is very important at MFB, and this requires all employees to be able to identify and report unexpected events and near misses without the fear of reprisal or retaliation.
