Advocate Health Care reposted this
Virtual nursing developed during the COVID-19 pandemic as a solution to a problem: more patients, fewer staff and the stress of treating a new disease meant nurses needed support. Since then, it’s become a clear road to the future of nursing, improving efficiency, nurse well-being and patient safety and Advocate Health is paving the way. “We started four years ago using baby monitors on a few units and now 22 hospitals in the Advocate Health network use virtual nurses to manage admissions and discharges,” says Patricia Mook, senior vice president, enterprise nursing operations, education and professional development for Advocate Health. “We’ve already assisted more than 31 thousand patients across the six states where we practice and any new hospital construction will include the capacity to implement virtual care technology because we know it helps our teams be more efficient and ensures our patients receive the safest care possible.” But it’s not about having the right technology. It’s about how you use it. That’s why Advocate Health nurse leaders like Mook are sharing their expertise on what to do and what not to do when deploying virtual nursing programs. Their knowledge ensures that we utilize these tools to their fullest potential, improving both the quality and safety of patient care. Read more: https://bit.ly/4dOdIzd

Taha's career is built on serving patients in critical care settings, and in his current role as a cardiovascular ICU nurse, he works to understand how heart health impacts other vital systems. "My job is to advocate for my patients," he explains. "I enjoy being part of the transition many of our patients make from being critically ill to watching them walk out of this hospital." Knowing he's played a part in helping that person regain control over their life is the best part about being a nurse.
