The key to effective care comes through knowing your patient — and that means more than just looking at their chart. It means understanding their background, their concerns, and the personal experiences they have in your hospital. To get a better handle on patient needs and concerns, hospitals have been using rounding for years. Traditional rounding approaches, however, are often mired in outdated, manual processes that can take up excess staff time and fail to operationalize feedback in real time. Digital, purposeful rounding — using electronic means to solicit feedback and collect information from patients and their surroundings — leads to better patient outcomes, operational efficiencies, and improved staff well-being.
