Huge congratulations to?Dr. Karen Lasater?for being named a?"Researcher to Watch"?by the AHRQ! ?? Karen's research has been pivotal in exploring the impact of nurse staffing and work environments on patient outcomes and nurse well-being, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. We’re proud to see her work recognized at the national level—an inspiring example of how research can drive policy change and improve healthcare systems. Check out her grantee profile, which will also be featured in AHRQ’s January 7, 2025, newsletter:?https://lnkd.in/eCNsjW5G #Nurses4All #NursingResearch #HealthEquity #PennNursing #AHRQ

New research in?Nursing Outlook?shows that frequent alarm burden—overwhelming alerts, delayed responses, and ignored alarms—significantly increases nurses’ odds of burnout. This has serious implications for nurse retention, hospital performance, and patient safety. ?? Read the study:?https://lnkd.in/gaQgxbcm Congrats to CHOPR’s Dr. Karen Lasater and co-authors Halley R., Maura Dougherty, and Mahima Kodavati on this important work! #NurseBurnout #PatientSafety #PennNursing #Nurses4All
Patient care technology is often lauded as an opportunity to reduce nurse workload and improve systems of care. However, when appropriate resources are not available to support integration of technology into clinical workflows, technologies may paradoxically harm patients and clinicians. For more than a decade, clinicians, researchers, and policy makers have expressed concern over the incessant alerts and alarms generated by clinical technologies both in terms of patient safety and the impact on hospital nurses’ well-being. A new cross-sectional study in Nursing Outlook examined the association between nurses’ experience of alarms and burnout, finding that nurses who frequently or occasionally experienced the alarm burden items (feeling overwhelmed by alarms, delaying response to alarms, and encountering ignored alarms) had significantly higher odds of burnout than those who rarely or never experienced them. The results have potential implications for nurse retention and overall hospital performance, in addition to patient safety.

In a new blog Dr. Lynne Moronski (Saliba), PhD, MPA, RN, a post-doctoral fellow at CHOPR, shares her journey of living with hereditary alpha tryptasemia (HaT), how it shaped her life, and how participating in NIH research inspired her to pursue a PhD. Her story is a testament to resilience and the power of research to change lives. Read her blog here:?https://lnkd.in/ez3_nsDW #HealthEquity #NurseResearcher #CHOPR #Nurses4All #PennNursing

Important reading from?JAMA Network Open?on the impacts of #nurseburnout, featuring some research from CHOPR’s own studies. This meta-analysis by Dr. Shanafelt’s team at Stanford affirms what our work has shown: nurse burnout is strongly associated with reduced patient safety, satisfaction, and healthcare quality. As the front line of patient care, nurses need environments that support well-being and resilience. At CHOPR, we’ve seen how systems-level improvements—adequate staffing, healthy work cultures, and meaningful resources—can transform outcomes for both patients and nurses. The data is clear: addressing nurse burnout isn’t just beneficial for nurses; it’s essential for safe, high-quality patient care. #NurseBurnout #Nurses4All #CHOPR #NurseWellbeing #PennNursing Matthew McHugh, PhD, JD, MPH, RN

?? New research led by Margo Brooks Carthon and Ann Kutney-Lee highlights the critical role of nurse work environments in reducing COVID-19 mortality among socially vulnerable Medicare beneficiaries. This study found that up to 585 deaths could have been prevented if hospitals had invested in better nursing resources. Read the full-article here: ?https://lnkd.in/erqxDNx7 This underscores the importance of supporting nurses to ensure high-quality care, particularly for those from socially vulnerable communities. As we prepare for future public health emergencies, improving nurse work environments must be a priority for hospital administrators and policymakers.
