Learn how leading health systems are standardizing nursing procedures to reduce the maintenance effort and support consistent, evidence-based care.
Healthcare organizations devote substantial clinical time and expertise to maintaining nursing procedural content. That responsibility is spread across nurses, educators, clinical specialists, and governance committees. Across a typical large organization it can consume thousands of labor hours over a multi-year review cycle. As workforce shortages persist and labor costs rise, nurse leaders are reevaluating whether that work is the best use of scarce clinical expertise.
This Leaders Edge Best Practice Brief from Lippincott® draws on insights from the Lippincott Solutions User Alliance, a peer-to-peer best-practice group for clinical executives, nurse educators, and nurse leaders. It explores practical approaches for standardizing nursing procedures and reducing the burden of procedure maintenance.
