Nurses play a critical role in managing LOS through various interventions:
Effective Care Coordination: Nurses coordinate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure timely interventions and discharge planning. Patient Education: Educating patients about their condition, treatment, and self-care can facilitate quicker recoveries. Monitoring and Assessment: Continuous monitoring helps in early detection of complications, thus preventing extended stays. Implementing Best Practices: Adhering to evidence-based practices can reduce LOS and improve patient outcomes.
