In launching TCAB, RWJF and IHI recruited three innovative hospitals to serve as prototypes for what would eventually become a larger effort. These three sites — Seton Northwest Hospital in Austin, Texas, part of the Ascension Health System; UPMC Shadyside, part of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; and Kaiser Foundation Hospital in Roseville, California, part of Kaiser Permanente — developed and rapidly tested ideas to determine the viability of a process for transforming care on medical/surgical units.

On the strength of promising results, an expanded pilot phase was launched in June 2004, with participating sites varied both in terms of geography and demography.

There are currently 10 hospitals participating in the RWJF/IHI Transforming Care at the Bedside initiative. Click on the hospital logo to learn more about what that organization is doing with TCAB:
