1. Identify Similar Tasks: Begin by identifying tasks that are similar in nature. For instance, medication administration, patient rounds, documentation, and equipment checks can be grouped together. 2. Schedule Batches: Allocate specific times in your shift to complete these tasks. For example, you might batch all medication administrations for a specific time window. 3. Prepare in Advance: Gather all necessary supplies and information before starting a batch task. This reduces interruptions and ensures a smooth workflow. 4. Use Technology: Leverage electronic health records (EHR) and other digital tools to streamline documentation and coordination.
