12 PDSA AIM: Reduce patients misconceptions about home dialysis therapies. Describe your first (or next) test of change: Will utilize the MEI Dialysis Decision Aid to engage patients and serve as a starting point to dialogue that will lead to education on home modality options. Person Responsible Home Therapy Team When to be done March 6 Where to be done In-center clinic List the tasks needed to set up this test of change: 1. Discuss with home therapy team best ways to identify patients to test MEI tool 2. Brainstorm with home therapy team at least one way to make the MEI tool accessible to patients who do not have internet access 3. Obtain the input of patient representative(s) on best ways to solicit patients to test MEI tool 4. Assign a staff member(s) who will help to administer the MEI tool and patient feedback questionnaire 5. Document which of the patients who test the MEI tool request more information about home therapies or home therapy referral 6. Develop educational and engagement materials to provide to patients Person Responsible Home Therapy Team FA/CM MD When to be done February 22 Where to be done QAPI IDT Meeting Home Therapy Weekly Meeting Predict what will happen when the test is carried out: 1. Patients will request additional info/consult with staff to ask questions about home therapies/mei tool results 2. One-on-one home consultations will be generated as a result of using the MEI tool 3. Patient who test the MEI tool, but do not request additional info/consult may still have misconceptions about home therapies Measures to determine if prediction succeeds 1. Count & document the # of patients who tested the MEI tool & asked for additional info/consult or had additional questions after testing the tool 2. Count & document the # of consultations generated by patients who tested the tool 3. Quantify & document the # of pts who self-report having a better understanding of home therapies following testing the tool; compare the self-reported responses of pts who asked for f/u info/consult v. those pts who did not

13 PDSA Do Describe what actually happened when you ran the test: The tool was disseminated/administered to 3 patients on each shift on Monday, March 6; disseminated to 3 additional patients on the 1 st and 2 nd shift on Tuesday, March 7; and disseminated to 2 more patients, both on 2 nd shift, on Friday, March 10. Staff had to use an ipad to assist patients with the administration of the tool, as some patients were unable to easily navigate the tool using their Smart Phones. Study Describe the measured results and how they compared to the predictions: 1. All 8 of the patients who tested the MEI tool requested to speak to staff to ask additional questions either about home therapies, the results of the tool, or the itself 2. Three of the 8 patients who tested the tool were referred for a one-on-one home therapy consult within 5-7 days of testing the tool. Of the 8 pts who had additional questions/follow-up from home therapy staff, only 5 of them reported having a better understanding of home therapies. Act Describe what modifications to the plan will be made for the next cycle from what you learned: 1. Develop an assessment/quiz to better evaluate patients understanding and reduce misconceptions 2. Set up a MEI Dialysis Decision Aid computer station on the next scheduled home therapy Lobby Days on April 13 and April 14 Add the modifications to the cycle and begin again with developing a plan to include modifications.
