Critical care nurses are constantly working under pressure and are adept at making fast, smart decisions, which is why they can help ensure successful transfer center operations, according to a TeleTracking blog post.
Critical care nurses have contributed greatly to transfer center success in many hospitals. They helped develop centralized, automated transfer centers, as they understood the shortcomings of the traditional siloed environment. They redesigned processes to centralize all patient flow functions within the transfer center. This ensured that the exact capacity of the hospital was known at all times via automated capacity management technology.
Automation along with critical care nurses' management of patient flow processes can help make the placement of transferred patients less time-consuming and more efficient, according to the blog post.
