The Pediatric Hospital Care Improvement Project (P-HIP) Collaborative developed and used a Key Driver Diagram to help guide their measure implementation and quality improvement efforts. The Key Driver Diagram contains specific activities or strategies that can be employed to attain the Aim of the collaborative, which was to “improve overall performance on quality of family/caregiver written discharge instructions content, going from an aggregate mean score of 71 to 85.”
The P-HIP Key Driver Diagram can be adapted and tailored for use by other organizations. The diagram can be found in the Key Driver Diagram section of the Promoting Safe Hospital-to-Home Transitions change package (PDF, page 3).
