Survey Question # 14

Rationale:

Some of the opponents of Fair distribution of Action Team assignments among all willing ICU nurses are suggesting that it is a bad idea because they believe that rotation of Action Team assignments at other Kaiser hospitals located in Greater Sacramento area has allegedly resulted in inferior patient outcomes. However, in reality the opposite is true as evidenced by the fact that in December of 2023, the Kaiser South Sacramento Medical Center, where the Action Team assignment is being rotated among all willing RNs to ensure superior patient outcomes, has in fact achieved spectacular patient outcomes becoming the first hospital in the entire World achieving the Magnet Recognition Award with Distinction on their first try. To combat the possible spread of misinformation and to assess the overall awareness of this fact, the Union has added the following question to the Survey:

Are you aware of the fact that by rotating the Action Team RN assignment among nearly all ICU nurses, the ICU nurses at the Kaiser South Sacramento Medical Center have achieved spectacular patient outcomes greatly contributing to their hospital becoming the first hospital in the entire World achieving the Magnet Recognition Award with Distinction on their first try in December of 2023?

No, I was not aware of that84.68 %94

Statistical Analysis: This survey results clearly shows that prior to this survey, between 80.40% and 88.96% of our ICU nurses were unaware of the fact that by rotating the Action Team assignment among nearly all ICU nurses, the ICU nurses at the Kaiser South Sacramento Medical Center have achieved spectacular patient outcomes greatly contributing to their hospital becoming the first hospital in the entire World achieving the Magnet Recognition Award with Distinction on their first try in December of 2023.

These findings were calculated by using scientific formula at the highest possible 99% confidence level, with a margin of error of 4.28% and a p-score of 0.8468.

Conclusion: This result shows lack of awareness of the fact that rotation of Action Team assignment is very beneficial because as it was proven at the Kaiser South Sacramento Medical Center, it produces spectacular patient outcomes that ultimately resulted in achieving the record-setting Magnet Recognition with Distinction Award earned by the Kaiser South Sacramento Medical Center in December of 2023.
