Nudges can also save valuable time. Nurses often spend time following up on the status of pharmacy orders. A simple nudge letting them know the order is in process, out for delivery, and delivered saves countless calls and disruption to nurses and pharmacists. Similarly, keeping nurses up-to-date on last-minute changes to surgery schedules can be challenging. An automated, proactive nudge with the latest times can prevent confusion and stress, and ensure patients are properly prepped.
"Nudge notifications are yet another unique and innovative way the hospital is using Vocera technology to improve communication and the healthcare experience for patients, families and care teams alike," said Brent Lang, president and CEO of Vocera. "We have been a proud partner of Phoenix Children's for more than a decade and look forward to seeing what the clinical and IT teams do next."
