This document summarizes strategies to improve management of deteriorating hospital patients. It discusses (1) establishing governance committees to oversee policies, (2) classifying rapid response team (RRT) calls to identify patterns and improve care, and (3) implementing programs to detect and manage deterioration earlier such as teaching junior doctors to conduct urgent clinical reviews, referring patients to palliative care, and placing an ICU fellow on high-risk surgical wards. The goals are to reduce RRT calls and prevent cardiac arrests by taking a more proactive approach to managing deterioration.
