How Can Nurses Contribute to Effective Resource Utilization?
Nurses play a vital role in resource utilization by adopting several practices:
Prioritizing tasks based on patient needs and the urgency of care. Utilizing technology, such as Electronic Health Records (EHR), to streamline documentation and reduce errors. Engaging in evidence-based practice to ensure that the care provided is supported by the latest research and best practices. Participating in interdisciplinary teams to improve coordination and communication among healthcare providers. Advocating for the use of appropriate and cost-effective medical supplies and equipment.
