Family Presence Policy Decision-Making Toolkit

Plantree tollkit

Planetree International has released a toolkit, "Family Presence Policy Decision-Making Toolkit."

The new decision-making tool has been developed to help healthcare leaders implement hospital and nursing home visitation policies that balance safety and infection control with the importance of in-person family presence. The decision-making toolkit guides nurse leaders and other users through a process of considering a range of variables when establishing visiting parameters. These include local conditions, resource availability, equity, and current evidence about potential harms and benefits of family presence. JAHF President Terry Fulmer, PhD, RN, FAAN, and Senior Program Officer Jane Carmody, DNP, MBA, RN, were contributors to this toolkit.
