AMP-Hospital
The Activity & Mobility Promotion (AMP) – Hospital multidisciplinary program equips frontline caregivers and hospital leaders with the tools and support needed to design and implement structured quality improvement processes to successfully increase patient activity and mobility.
Combating the Harms of Immobility
Why Patient Mobility Matters
The Activity & Mobility Promotion (AMP) program firmly establishes the concept that a systematic approach is beneficial in combating the harms of immobility in our hospitals. Throughout our hospital, we have adopted structured quality improvement processes to promote a culture of activity and mobility.
Activity and mobility programs can reduce length of stay, decrease readmissions and improve patient outcomes. Such programs are an excellent method to drive value “by bending the cost curve,” improving patient outcomes at a lower cost to the hospital.
