Magnet Status Case Study

Leslie, Thank you for the response! I have heard from older nurses that doctors insisting on taking vitals are a habit which stemmed from when there was not as much focus on nurse education. Currently, there is a push for health care organizations to reach what is known as “Magnet Status” and one of those requirements is to have a certain percent of the nursing staff be RNs. Organizations that hire more well trained nurses do not have to worry about accomplishing basic tasks, so patient visits can be much more efficient. Communication is essential to the success of any organization and I think it is really good that you communicate with your providers to coordinate the most efficient use of time. Nobody likes to have their time
