Retrospective chart reviews from January 1st to January 31st, 2023, at Community Medical Center's Progressive Care Unit (PCU) were conducted to establish a baseline for mobility assessments and activity levels. Findings revealed that while 82.14% of patients had mobility assessments charted, only 27.68% had correlating activity levels documented, falling short of the targeted 75%. The project highlights the importance of accurate charting and the need for nurse education to ensure alignment between assessments and activities. Moving forward, the data collected will serve as a benchmark for assessing the effectiveness of future interventions aimed at improving patient mobility and outcomes in hospital settings. 000043334 540__ $$fCC BY 000043334 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000043334 650__ $$aBenchmarking$$032042 000043334 650__ $$aInpatients$$020846 000043334 650__ $$aMobility Limitation$$036830 000043334 650__ $$aEducation, Nursing$$018228 000043334 6531_ $$aearly mobility 000043334 691__ $$aSchool of Nursing$$041370 000043334 7001_ $$aSmith, Ali$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000043334 7201_ $$aMiller, Robin$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$eAcademic advisor$$7Personal 000043334 8564_ $$9d37e0c6e-4eb2-4b86-b162-a1756d580d90$$s272892$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/43334/files/Smith.Ali.2024.pdf 000043334 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:43334$$pstudent-work 000043334 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations 000043334 981__ $$aPublished$$b2024-06-10
