摘要
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of the emergency nurse coordinator in optimization of workflow of the emergency department. A retrospective analysis of all patient encounters in the emergency department between Aug 1 to Sept 31 of 2014 (n=6,189) and Aug 1 to September 31 of 2015 (n=8,626) was conducted. There was a statistically significant decrease in the admission time, length of stay, transfer time, and review time of the patients after the introduction of the emergency nurse coordinator in the emergency department.(p<0.05).
