Dozens of ICan projects have been led by frontline staff around the state over the last three years. Past projects have included:

• Increasing the safety of resident transfers by changing the wheels on lifts from a small size to a large size, which reduced the risk of falls, eased movement over floor transitions, made residents feels safer and reduced physical stress on caregivers.
• Implementing an aromatherapy program to promote patient comfort and reduce the use of opioids for pain management.
• Updating the contents, stocking process and efficiency of first aid kits.
• Initiating the use of Communication Boards.
• Improving resident grooming practices and staff accountability.
• Relaunching onboarding and training practices to impact retention of staff.
• And so many more!
