Nursing is a profession of selflessness. We give not to receive but to serve those in need.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I have worked at the bedside and held patient\u2019s hands during their most difficult times, and now I\u2019m working side-by-side with healthcare professionals serving their communities and caring for patients during the COVID-19 outbreak through my work as a clinical advisor with TeleTracking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For close to three decades, TeleTracking has partnered with health systems across the United States, Canada and in the United Kingdom to ensure that no patient waits for the care they need. Now that we are facing the biggest health challenge in a century, our health systems are on the front lines with a new, highly contagious virus and concern that the demand for care could vastly exceed capacity. Visibility and transparency are more important than ever before\u2014like knowing which beds are available, which patients are in need of special isolation rooms, and which patients are ready to be discharged so another patient can receive the care they need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

This is what a\u00a0Health System Command Center<\/a>\u00a0supported by robust workflows provides\u2014and not just during an emergency\u2014but 365 days a year and 24 hours a day.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

The Centers for Disease Control<\/a> recently released four key goals for the U.S. healthcare system:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Reduce morbidity and mortality<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Minimize disease transmission<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Protect healthcare personnel<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Preserve healthcare system functioning<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    As a partner and collaborator, I\u2019d like to share how TeleTracking makes it possible to align to these goals and deliver vital patient care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We\u2019ll start with Preserve Healthcare System Functioning<\/strong><\/em> to keep the doors open and the health system alive and sustainable:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
