Staff Locating
The ability to quickly locate staff is essential to patient safety, staff safety, patient flow and efficient operations.
You can create an environment where interruptions are minimized and communication is maximized by helping staff to find the resources they need—including their fellow staff members—in a timely manner, without phone calls and walking surveys.
Real-time staff locating helps keep staff focused on patient care and workflow tasks that must be completed in order to advance the patient to the next stage of care. Patient visits progress more efficiently when staff are easily located to answer simple questions that might otherwise be forgotten or overlooked.
Knowing where your fellow staff members are will also help you to quickly provide support if they indicate a need for assistance.
