Inpatient Leadership Rounds Checklist
by Alyson Estwick Morris, from the Community
This inpatient leadership rounds checklist helps hospital leaders structure and document rounding on inpatient units. It covers security and safety checks, fire safety readiness, hazardous materials and waste handling, infection prevention and control standards, medical equipment maintenance, and emergency procedures. Clinical care observations include central line and urinary catheter care, ventilator care, falls risk, pressure injury prevention, and restraint documentation. Use this template to record findings, engage staff and patients, assign and track corrective actions, and demonstrate compliance with hospital policies and patient safety goals. Adapt sections to your unit and schedule regular reviews to drive continuous improvement.
