  Don’t Be a Moth: How to Round Effectively, Efficiently, and for Impact

  Session Description: While many nurse leaders enjoy rounding on patients or staff, it can be a time-consuming endeavor that leaves them also feeling defeated. Staff and patients need a lot of support, and nurse leaders walk a fine line of supporting their teams versus doing the teams’ work. This is why rounds can become a flurry of activity that yields inadequate results and takes up a tremendous amount of time. In this discussion, Greta will use humor and practicality to describe what happens in the real world, and what leaders can do to make it an “ideal” world. Participants will learn three strategies to use to maximize the impact of their rounds and save themselves time on their journey to create the outcomes they desire.

  * registration deadline is 8:00 AM, ET, Wednesday, May 21, 2025. We must provide a headcount to the restaurant on Wednesday morning.

  PONL is  providing nursing continuing professional development (NCPD) contact hours for the educational activity entitled: Don't Be a Moth: How to Round Effectively, Efficiently, and for Impact. Criteria for successful completion of this program includes full attendance at the program and submission of a completed evaluation form.  Partial credit will not be awarded. This program is eligible for 2.0 contact hours. The Pennsylvania Organization of Nurse Leaders (PONL) is an approved provider of nursing continuing professional development by Pennsylvania State Nurses Association, an accredited approver by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission on Accreditation. The planners and presenters of this activity have disclosed no relevant financial relationships with any commercial companies pertaining to this activity.
