Great Catch Leah Olayvar RN - CNRVMC (PCU)!
Leah identified a significant patient‑safety concern while reviewing the intake badge buddies provided by Source Four. She discovered multiple inconsistencies in listed volumes—ranging anywhere from 1 mL to 120 mL—as well as discrepancies among unit‑posted resources containing conflicting volume information. This meant that staff across several hospital units were referencing mismatched data when documenting patient, I&Os.
Because accurate I&O documentation is essential to guiding treatment decisions, these inconsistencies posed a systemwide risk to patient care. Leah’s attention to detail and proactive investigation led to the issue being escalated as a system initiative to correct intake volumes and standardize resources across all units.
Thank you, Leah, for your diligence and commitment to patient safety. Your Great Catch helps ensure safer, more accurate care for every patient we serve!
