While most organizations continue to focus on this issue, many struggle to consistently achieve improved outcomes. A unified effort among the interprofessional team including team members at the point of care and organizational leaders can help achieve this goal. One model that can be successfully employed is to harness the unique and valuable insight into clinical and operational practices from point of care champions.
