The use of an advanced call bell system partnered with hourly rounding resulted in universal improvement of the HCAHPS responsiveness scores and overall response times on a surgical oncology and a medical unit. Strengths of this evidence-based quality improvement project include ease of translation to multiple care team members and healthcare environments, as well as ability to tailor competency scenarios to patient-specific populations.enEvidence-based practice (EBP); responsiveness; HCAHPS; call bell; technology; quality improvement; nursing; purposeful roundingDNP Scholarly Project
