Abstract
The MIND project is an Interprofessional Evidence-based Clinical Scholar project aimed at delirium prevention for acute care neuroscience patients. The MIND Project stands for Meeting the Inpatient Needs of Delirium and included three objectives. The first objective was to increase nurses’ knowledge of delirium prevention and improve their confidence in identifying delirium. The second was to design a volunteer program to assist health care staff in preventing delirium. The third objective was to establish an ongoing monitoring approach for ensuring continued improvement in preventing delirium.
