Nurses are on the front lines of advancing patient outcomes. As a nurse, you strive to continuously improve quality of care and the patient experience. Part of that experience includes care coordination and care transitions, which promote value-based care. But with nurses pulled in multiple directions in a demanding, fast-paced work environment, how can you create a safe environment for patients across the care continuum? And how can nurse leaders achieve the best outcomes in nurse engagement and patient health?
The Institute for Healthcare Improvement's Triple Aim and value-based care make it imperative that nurses create a safe and engaging care environment for patients. Join ANA and award-winning author Dr. Beth Ann Swanson as she defines the role of nurse leaders and registered nurses in health care delivery, policy, and financial concerns, and how care coordination and care transitions can help ensure the best patient outcomes and staff engagement. Learn how you can help coordinate the patient care experience by balancing technology and innovations to increase nurse-patient interaction, while maintaining a safe and engaging nurse-patient relationship.
