Change Topic (2-3 sentences): PICOT Analysis. Generally, a high level of patient satisfaction for the clients in the emergency department (ED) is vital, especially at this time when the healthcare system is shifting towards patient-centered care. Utilization of RTLS in the hospital’s ED, compared to manually-entered status updates to tract patients, help decrease the rate of LWBT and to raise revenue collection within 6 months, for ED patients with decreasing satisfaction levels with the provided healthcare services. This is as from the articles discussed below. Benchmark -Evidence-Based Practice Project: Literature Review

Methods: Intervention/Instruments	Tracking technologies and techniques	Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey.	Patient satisfaction in practice building.	Individual factors influencing satisfaction.
Analysis	Hospitals are expected to meet growing patient volumes. This would enable providers to satisfy patients in various stages of treatment through technologies.	Client satisfaction information in the ED department can streamline workflow. While technology can be applied to enhance the satisfaction, providers are required to provide technical quality in care delivery.	Assessment of quality from a report published in 2001 showed how patient satisfaction can be used to shape healthcare practice. The doctor, patient, and organization are important factors in service excellence.	Through regression analysis, the results depicted predictors of satisfaction in the ED for patients and companions. Core domains in satisfaction entailed age, gender, and employment of the patient. Companions with lower education levels and visited due to patient illness were more satisfied.
Key Findings	Patient-tracking technologies help providers by providing real-time information on patients. The information is used to mould workflow enabling customization to fit patient and organization needs.  Benchmark -Evidence-Based Practice Project: Literature Review	Social rapport built creates both trust and satisfaction to the parties. However, providers should consider authentic engagement for deeper connections. This has regards to reduced computer usage.	Even if patient satisfaction is an attitude, it determines patient loyalty to the doctor and the hospital. Patient-focuses care provided is expected to meet expectations besides ensuring the organizations strives to provide better care. The satisfaction can act as an indicator to quality care.
