Objectives: To determine whether education and integration of the Gold Standard Framework Proactive Identification Guidance (GSF-PIG) and the Palliative Performance Scale (PPS) into care rounds, in post-acute care settings, can facilitate communication between the interprofessional care team to enhance understanding of illness trajectories, identifying those who would benefit from a palliative approach to care. Methods: Interprofessional care teams received training on the GSF-PIG and PPS which were integrated into weekly care rounds and completed a post-evaluation survey. A chart review was conducted for the 40 patients and residents reviewed with the GSF-PIG and PPS. Data analysis included descriptive statistics and comparisons of characteristics between patients and residents who were grouped as positive or negative on the GFS-PIG surprise question using chi square analyzes and t-tests. Results: The GSF-PIG and PPS were found to enhance communication within care teams and enhance understanding of patient and resident’s illness burden. The chart review revealed that patients and residents whom the team would not be surprised if they died within 1 year were older (p = .002), had a lower PPS score (p = .002) and had more indicators of decline (p < .001) compared to patients and residents the team would be surprised if they died within the year. Conclusion: Training interprofessional care teams on the utilization and integration of the GSF-PIG and PPS during weekly care rounds helped increase the understanding of patient and resident illness burden and illness trajectory to identify those who may benefit from a palliative approach to care.
