Healthcare Team Communication: Reliable Communication, Improved Patient Outcomes
Reliable hospital team communications can improve the coordination of care and patient outcomes. When physician burnout is high, dependable consolidated mobile communications can help alleviate it.
Team Communication Challenges
- Unreliable overhead paging systems can cause chaos and missed pages
- Missed or miscommunicated case workflows and team tasks can lead to patient dissatisfaction and team burnout
- Shuffling cases and patients with different care needs and documentation can result in disorganization, stress, declining care metrics, and an increase in bottlenecks without well-coordinated care
- Managing EKGs from multiple sources makes extra work for care teams and can cause confusion
- False activations
- Inability to meet metrics for lack of documentation on case data, specialty care cases, etc.
- Difficulty managing specialty care processes
