Continuity of care through consistent scheduling
Improving continuity of care using Time 360's scheduling feature
In our last post we examined Time 360's ability to improve clinical outcomes by matching clinicians' expertise with patients' needs. Today we will look at Time 360's ability to improve outcomes by ensuring consistency of care. Patients who experience consistent care by the same resources report increased satisfaction and improved outcomes1.
Time 360 helps ensure consistency of care by providing easy access to previous schedules. No need to find the paper schedule or the spreadsheet from last month. Time 360 retains schedule information and allows for easy retrieval. Future revisions will even include the ability to "copy forward" previous nursing shifts to future shifts.
