Several areas in nursing commonly benefit from process improvement initiatives:
- Patient Safety: Reducing medication errors, improving hand hygiene, and preventing falls are critical areas. - Communication: Enhancing communication among healthcare providers and between staff and patients can significantly improve care coordination. - Workflow Efficiency: Streamlining processes such as patient admissions, discharge planning, and documentation can save time and reduce errors. - Patient Satisfaction: Implementing measures to improve the patient experience, such as reducing wait times and improving pain management.
