Patient Safety

Purposeful Hourly Rounding

Purposeful hourly rounding involves checking on the patient every hour during the day and every 2 hours overnight. It is intended to proactively address a patient’s needs. A structured approach involves addressing the “4 Ps” during each rounding visit:

Pain (Is it controlled?)
Personal Needs (Does the patient need hydration or nutrition, the restroom, etc.?)
Position (Is the patient comfortable?)
Placement (Are personal items and the call light within reach? Is clutter removed from the area?)
