SIBR Readiness Index

Fields marked with an * are required

Determine your Organisational Readiness Score.

1. Are SIBR rounds considered part of the strategic plan for the organisation?

2. Which executive leaders would identify themselves as a sponsor of the SIBR care model in the organisation? Tick all that apply.

3. Has a Project Charter been completed with an executive sponsor for the first SIBR unit?

4. Within what time horizon does leadership aspire to launch the SIBR unit?

5.  Is the hospital actively engaged in achieving Magnet status (or already a Magnet hospital)?

6.  Has the physician chief of service for the target SIBR unit committed to the unit-based teams determining physician-patient assignments?

7. Has the target unit been identified?

8.  Is Bed Control leadership committed to daily support in order to maintain unit-based physician teams?

 

Score guide:

70-80 points - Ready
40-60 points - Close to being ready
< 40 points - Not yet ready

Fields marked with an * are required

Determine your Unit Readiness Score.

1. Does the target unit have unit-based physician teams (i.e. the unit has physician teams dedicated primarily to that unit)?

2a. Has the nurse unit manager for the target unit expressed a commitment to develop the SIBR care model?

2b. Has a physician medical director been identified and/or announced to support the nurse unit manager?

3. Have executive leadership and unit leadership distributed a written and a verbal message to both the nursing and medical staff of the SIBR unit explaining why it will be created, what is involved, how it will affect them, and how they can contribute?

4. Has a specific date for the launch of the future SIBR unit been set and widely communicated to the nursing and medical staff of the unit, as well as Bed Control leadership?

5. Has hospital leadership already provided SIBR training to more than 90% of the entire staff of the future SIBR unit?

 

Score guide:

60 points target - Ready to launch
40-55 points target - Could be ready soon
< 40 points - Not yet ready

 

How to use:

If the Organisational Readiness Score (page 1) indicates “Probably ready now” then the Unit Readiness Score (Page 2) becomes relevant. If the Unit Readiness Score indicates “target ACU ready to launch”, a successful ACU launch can be most readily achieved.

Organisational Readiness Score

70-80 points Probably ready now

40-60 points Could be ready quite soon

<40 points Uncertain readiness
