Development of the Harm Prevention Partners Clinical Model: An Academic-Practice Partnership for Prevention of Patient Harm Events.

ABSTRACT

This innovative academic-practice partnership applied user-centered design, resulting in a new clinical model, the "Harm Prevention Partners Program." The model engaged students working as teams with faculty to intervene on nurse-sensitive indicators by documenting care on a novel smartphone tool and generating an intervention dashboard to visualize impact. Faculty utilized the dashboard to guide postclinical debriefing and highlight students' impact on patient outcomes.
