Mission Statement:
To elevate the standard of patient care and safety by proactively preventing readmissions among CHF patients.
Measurable Project Objectives – (Use 5 W’s and H. Sipes, 2016):
- Who: Improve patient discharge by implementing a comprehensive discharge plan.
- What: Reduce unnecessary hospital length of stay.
- Where: Prevent adverse outcomes following patient discharge.

- Why: Decrease 30-days readmission rates among CHF patients.
- How: Enhance overall patient health outcomes.
Justification of Project:
Effective patient discharge planning is a critical aspect of providing quality care. Inadequate planning can lead to adverse events, resulting in costly and life-threatening situations necessitating readmissions. The implementation of a comprehensive discharge plan specifically tailored for CHF patients addresses these challenges, aiming to significantly improve patient outcomes and reduce the burden on healthcare resources.
