iRound™ 8.36.0

The iRound™ mobile app is a crucial element of Press Ganey's iRound platform, accompanied by a web-based analytical dashboard system and a range of supportive services. This suite collectively assists hospital leaders in reshaping their approach to enhancing the patient care experience. Through iRound for Patient Experience, nurse leaders and staff engage in daily patient rounds directly on mobile devices such as iPads, iPhones, and iPod touch. The completed rounds are automatically uploaded to the secure dashboard system, iRound IQ, where rounding data is integrated into trend graphs and personalized interactive reports. These tools facilitate detailed analysis and real-time performance enhancement.

iRound for Patient Experience streamlines the process of recording daily patient rounds by eliminating the need for manual paper notes entry. This not only reduces the risk of transcription errors but also saves nurse leaders potentially thousands of hours. Moreover, iRound supports executive rounding on staff, aiding leaders in identifying high-performing individuals and promptly addressing any issues that could impact staff morale or efficacy. Executive rounding has been demonstrated to bolster staff engagement and retention rates.

Of particular significance, iRound empowers staff to take immediate action upon identifying a patient need or concern during the round rather than waiting for future survey reports to reflect today's data. Automation of daily patient rounds and efficient management of identified action items have yielded notable improvements in HCAHPS scores by up to 38% in six months, enabling hospitals to optimize reimbursement under both CMS's and private payers' Value-Based Purchasing programs.
