At Baylor Jack and Jane Hamilton Heart and Vascular Hospital, we developed a preadmission packet that is given to patients before their procedure date, enabling them to complete much of their paperwork in advance. The results of our subsequent study revealed that nurses save time during the assessment interview when patients arrive at the hospital with their admission database forms completed. In a busy facility with a large number of patients admitted daily, the nursing time saved can translate into a substantial economic benefit. Even more important, however, is the benefit to patients, who feel less rushed and provide a more thorough and accurate medical history when they can fill out the admission database form at home.
在贝勒杰克和简·汉密尔顿心脏与血管医院,我们制定了一份入院前资料包,在手术日期前发给患者,使他们能够提前完成大部分文书工作。我们后续研究的结果显示,当患者带着填好的入院数据库表格到达医院时,护士在评估面谈时能节省时间。在一个每天收治大量患者的繁忙机构中,节省的护理时间可转化为可观的经济效益。然而,更重要的是对患者的益处,当他们能在家中填写入院数据库表格时,会感觉不那么匆忙,从而能提供更全面、准确的病史。
