What’s the problem?

Inefficiencies in nursing handoff processes during shift changes can lead to significant delays and communication lapses, compromising patient care and safety.

Why does this matter?

These inefficiencies can extend patient wait times, increase frustration, and undermine trust in healthcare services. For healthcare providers, they add to the burden of managing errors and impact overall efficiency. Systemically, they raise operational costs, risk legal liabilities, and tarnish the healthcare institution’s reputation, ultimately hindering the quality of care.
