Expansion of the seizure monitoring program. A collaborative approach

This article discusses an interdisciplinary total quality management (TQM) project that planned for the expansion of the seizure monitoring program on a neuroscience unit. The processes of education, bed management, and patient care were evaluated by a TQM group of staff nurses, unit leader, attending physicians, clinical nurse specialist, and technicians. Each participant identified actual and potential problems and their effects on the participant's area of care.
