Facility resources are crucial for several reasons:
Patient Safety: Adequate resources ensure that nurses can provide safe and effective care. For instance, having access to functional medical equipment is essential for accurate diagnostics and treatment. Efficiency: Proper resources streamline workflows, reducing the time needed for tasks and allowing nurses to focus more on direct patient care. Staff Morale: A well-resourced facility can lead to higher job satisfaction among nurses, reducing burnout and turnover rates. Compliance: Adequate resources help in adhering to regulatory standards and best practices, thereby avoiding potential legal issues.
