Organizations can implement several strategies to reduce travel time for nurses:
Geographic Assignment: Assign nurses to patients based on geographic proximity to minimize travel distances. Cluster Visits: Schedule multiple patient visits in the same area consecutively to reduce the need for back-and-forth commuting. Flexible Scheduling: Allow nurses to choose shifts that align with less congested travel times. Home-Based Positions: Offer roles that can be performed remotely, reducing the need for daily commuting.
