The California Nursing Outcomes Coalition's (CalNOC) is using this grant to develop and capture comparable quality-of-care indicators across target, acute-care hospitals within the five Bay Area counties: Alameda, Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo, and Santa Clara. CalNOC's collaboration is part of a broader project focused on measuring the quality of nursing care and its impact on patient outcomes throughout California. Outcomes include the incorporation of "Medication Administration" and "Central-line Associated Blood Stream Infection" patient outcomes indicators into core indicators for 95% of target hospitals, the pilot of new patient outcome indicators (urinary tract infections and ventilator associated pneumonia), and the alignment of CalNOC with emerging regional and national patient outcomes measurement initiatives.
