Follow on Google News | Nurse Response Helps Bring Awareness to National Health Care Quality WeekNurse Response, a national provider of multilingual nurse triage and health education services, is pleased to bring awareness to National Health Care Quality Week this week.
By: Nurse Response “Since 1995, the health care professionals at Nurse Response have worked to create and implement quality-improvement systems that help deliver better care to those they serve,” said Kim Tuck, RN, President & CEO of Nurse Response. "Because nurse advice lines or nurse triage services are often the first point in the continuum of care, we strive to ensure that our team provides the highest quality service in every interaction.” To help ensure that your nurse advice line is a quality health care partner, Nurse Response has compiled a few things to look for: · Ask About Accreditations: · Focus on Clinical Guidelines: The RNs who work for a nurse advice line must determine the appropriate action to take based upon current symptoms, without physically seeing the person on the other end of the line. Because of that, it’s important for them to use evidence-based specific telephone triage protocols and symptom decision support guidelines to ensure the right health advice is provided to each and every caller. · Clinical Expertise: Inquire about the level of experience of the team at your nurse advice line. Nurses need “real world” experience that adds to their well-roundedness and knowledge. · Listen to Happy Customers: Look for a partner who takes the time to ask customers about their experience – and learn from it. To ensure that the response isn’t just a random sampling, every caller should have the option to provide feedback. And don’t forget that the end customer isn’t the only one who can help to improve process. Using a third-party to research clients ensures that the results aren’t tainted and that all involved have a voice in improvement. · Attention to Education and Empowerment: · Speak Your Language: English is a common language in our country, but there are many other languages that are prominent. Make sure your partner has bilingual team members and access to translation services if needed. For more information about National Health Care Quality Week, visit www.nahq.org.
