Excellent question! Pulse lavage has an excellent evidence base. I have seen a very successful implementation across the continuum that has improved outcomes for patients. Additionally, my experience has shown enhanced communication among providers during "hand-off" of the patient between settings as well as improved collaboration and problem solving between what has been traditionally seen as distinct, separate clinical entities.
Tips: #1 - Provide clinical education on the selected product with all settings together - so relationships can be built. Additionally, potential implementation problems identified and solved.
#2 - Don't assume that one clinical setting understands the unique challenges of the other - having the discussion will help iron out any issues later
#3 - Having management support for positive patient outcomes, good clinical practices, patient and staff safety is crucial.
Good luck on your implementation!

Great thoughts-thank you!
