Change Bundle Encourages Nursing Home Resident Mobility
In addition to sharing change concepts developed from the successful practices of high-performing nursing homes, The National Nursing Home Change Package provides healthcare improvement change bundles. These bundles provide a proven approach to a specific topic that helps providers more reliably deliver the best possible care for residents.
One change bundle is “To Encourage Nursing Home Residents’ Mobility.” It includes a Six-Point set of actions with supporting actions that represent the practices described by nursing homes that have successfully improved resident mobility.
The Six-Points:
- Define mobility for each individual.
- Provide a place or space to move.
- Provide supportive equipment.
- Train staff and residents.
- Support and encourage.
- Address physical and psychological needs that inhibit mobility.
