Medical-surgical patients' readmission rates may be adversely affected by numerous factors. At the project site, there was no process to impact medical-surgical readmission rates, so an evidence-based approach was sought. The purpose of this quality improvement project was to determine if the implementation of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality's (AHRQ) Re-Engineered Discharge (RED) Toolkit Tool 5: Post-Discharge Follow-Up Phone Call would impact 30-day readmission rates among medical surgical patients. The project was piloted over an eight-week period in an urban city in Texas. Imogene King's nursing theory and Kurt Lewin's evidence-based change model provided the scientific underpinnings of the project. Data on readmissions were collected from the Electronic Health Record (EHR). The total sample size was 459, with n = 253 in the comparative group and n = 236 in the intervention group. To analyze the comparison and implementation group data, a chi-square test was used. The results indicated there was a statistically and clinically significant reduction in 30-day readmissions, X 2 (1, N = 489) = 6.59, p = .010. Clinical significance was supported by the 8.9% decrease in 30-day readmissions following the intervention. Based on the results, the implementation of the AHRQ RED Toolkit 5: Post-Discharge Follow-Up Phone Call may improve 30-day readmission rates among this population. Recommendations include sustaining the project and disseminating the results.
