    Journal: J Nurs Adm; 2009 Jun; 39(6):293-8. PubMed ID: 19509604.
    Abstract:
    Many hospital leaders are struggling with how to decrease patients' length of stay while maintaining appropriate care. The authors provide a transfer able model for daily rounds that can be used on many units to help decrease length of stay while improving communication, collaboration, and coordination. No increase in staff is required, and nursing satisfaction improves.
