"Creating a new role requires the redesign of the way that multidisciplinary teams work together. The starting point for this workforce design should be the optimal clinical pathways, rather than what is being done today. That means setting out the clinical red lines (what can only be done by a registered healthcare professional), looking at the skills and roles needed, and the most efficient use of capacity." Supporting this design and the people who have to make it work are the systems that underpin the health service. Platforms like CAREFUL that enable clinicians to collaborate and leaders to monitor, measure and manage. #digitalhealth #digitalhealthcare #patientsafety

Attention healthcare professionals: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a significant number of registered nurses leaving the workforce due to stress, burnout, and retirement. In the past two years, over 100,000 nurses have exited the healthcare industry, with an additional 610,388 reporting their intent to leave in the next decade. Not only that, but the average age of RNs is over 50, contributing to a projected shortage of over 1 million nurses in the healthcare industry. It is crucial that we address this issue to ensure adequate staffing and quality care for patients. #healthcare #nursing #staffingshortage #COVID19
