A 36-bed academic, tertiary care pediatric hospital implemented telerounds during the COVID-19 pandemic. After visiting restrictions were lifted, nurses were interested in continuing telerounds for families who could not attend daily rounds. The aim of this evidence-based quality improvement project was to develop a standardized, family-centered telerounding process that was feasible and satisfied parents, nurses, and physicians.Learners must complete the entire activity and the associated evaluation AND read Implicit Bias impacts patient outcomes.
