Huddle Up! Nursing Mid-Shift Meetings Create Better Outcomes

"In these fast-paced environments, it's very easy to lose sight of what's happening elsewhere on the unit when you're busy … and mid-shift huddles allow the team to collaborate to redistribute workload and real-time problem solve if needed." — Sara Schoen, MSN, RN, CCRN, nurse manager

Mid-shift huddling at University of Wisconsin Health better equips the team with needed information to provide safe patient care and allows the team to better support each other, says Sara Schoen, MSN, RN, CCRN, a nurse manager there. Data also shows that mid-shift huddles create positive outcomes.

Schoen shared with HealthLeaders the structure and benefits of her unit's mid-shift huddles. Read it HERE.
