I identified five major themes to improve patient experience, which included nurse-patient relationship, nurse leader rounds, hourly nurse rounding, provider communications skills building, and teamwork. Much of the literature used from the United States contains information acquired through quantitative means unlike journals from other regions. The arising issues discussed in the paper is sufficient evidence serving as an indication that there is still much to do in a bid to ensure the delivery and receipt of quality services to improve patient experience during treatment. Through the research, it became evident that organizations cannot only rely on the healthcare professionals to ascertain quality healthcare. Patients also need to play their part for a successful engagement. http://pubs.sciepub.com/ajnr/8/2/18/ajnr-8-2-18.pdf nurses literature review patient experience nursing leadership communication leader round
