For many patients, it\u2019s company, comfort and a way to feel connected to normal life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEspecially when we have people here for a long time, it takes their minds off things,\u201d said Danielle Hanson, discharge flow nurse with the post-trauma unit at <a id=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.uchealth.org\/locations\/uchealth-medical-center-of-the-rockies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">UCHealth Medical Center of the Rockies<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>High patient volumes recently required double occupancy in some rooms on the unit. The rooms each have one TV, which would normally mean patients have to agree on what to watch.<\/p>\n<p>Putting patients first, Hanson partnered with patient experience colleagues on a creative solution. Now, each patient who shares a room gets their own digital tablet. With headphones and their own screen, patients can watch what they prefer without needing to compromise.<\/p>\n<p>Hanson knows what it\u2019s like to be a patient on the unit, because she was one \u2013 nine years ago, just before she started working there: She was walking on a sidewalk and slipped on some ice, broke ribs and had a collapsed lung requiring a chest tube. She spent about a week on the MCR trauma unit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn the unit, I got to meet a lot of nurses and aides, see how they communicated and worked. It was really impressive. Just the culture of the unit was amazing,\u201d she said. \u201cThey always made you feel like you were not a burden \u2013 like you were their top priority \u2013 and made me feel like I was the only person here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>They had an opening for a nurse, and a couple charge nurses encouraged Hanson to consider applying.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt first it was a joke, like, \u2018I should come work with you guys.\u2019 And they were like, \u2018No, really. You should apply,\u2019\u201d she said. \u201cAnd I did.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before the injuries, she worked at <a id=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.uchealth.org\/locations\/uchealth-longs-peak-surgery-center-longmont\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">UCHealth Longs Peak Surgery Center<\/a> in Longmont. She was hired to the Medical Center of the Rockies position while on leave and returned to join the post-trauma team, just a few months after they cared for her.<\/p>\n<p>Today, as the unit\u2019s first dedicated discharge flow nurse, Hanson works to help patients go home sooner. She collaborates with colleagues to pursue mobility goals, helping patients build their strength to ensure it is safe for them to discharge. She also champions initiatives to help ensure patients avoid infections.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDanielle has had an immense impact on our quality metrics, capacity and throughput, patient experience and (the) mobility initiative,\u201d said Austin Erhart, post-trauma nurse manager at MCR. \u201cWe all adore and depend on Danielle for our success.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"x_elementToProof\" style=\"text-align: center\" data-ogsc=\"rgb(0, 0, 0)\" data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\"><div class=\"su-row\">\n<div class=\"su-column su-column-size-2-3 su-column-centered\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"x_elementToProof\" style=\"text-align: center\" data-ogsc=\"rgb(0, 0, 0)\"><b data-ogsc=\"\">You Make Extraordinary Possible<\/b><\/div>\n<div class=\"x_elementToProof\" style=\"text-align: center\" data-ogsc=\"rgb(0, 0, 0)\">Together, we recognize and honor the qualities within ourselves by shining a spotlight on how each and every one of us improve lives in big ways and small.<\/div>\n<div class=\"x_elementToProof\" style=\"text-align: center\" data-ogsc=\"rgb(0, 0, 0)\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uchealthpoints.isrewards.com\/Recognition\/Award\/FormFlex.aspx?pr=JAwX5qZPSOA=&#038;m=N\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-flat\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#A22343;border-color:#821c36;border-radius:56px\" target=\"_self\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:0px 26px;font-size:20px;line-height:40px;border-color:#be657c;border-radius:56px;text-shadow:none\"> Share a story<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"x_elementToProof\" style=\"text-align: center\" data-ogsc=\"rgb(0, 0, 0)\"><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sharing a patient room, not the TV remote In a hospital room, the TV isn\u2019t just noise in the background.
