Joining a Collaborative

When hospitals join in a collaborative infection prevention project, they agree to work within the requirements and discipline of the sponsors. That includes providing baseline and monthly infection rate data to the collaborative leaders and committing some staff members to intense weekly phone talks with the collaborative experts and other coaching sessions. Ideally, a community emerges, both online and in-person. The community members exchange experiences and ideas related to the initiative, socialize, and establish a behavioral norm within each hospital that can help convince resisters, particularly physicians, to change their ways. To make up for the limited attention paid to the problems individual hospitals may encounter, some collaboratives provide a troubleshooting group of expert advisors. The collaborative approach has strong support from federal and state agencies, but some studies have questioned its effectiveness.
