Effective digital workplaces for Nurses

Caregivers are under more pressure than ever to perform their jobs. Instead of being at the mercy of technology, caregivers need technology to help them do their job. To spend more time with their patients. To deliver quality care. To take care of themselves too.

Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise (ALE) has designed the Nurse Digital Workplace to effectively support the nurses’ meaningful work with mobile technology while alleviating their pain points. 

The burden on nurses can be reduced

Clinical nurses work in an environment that is high stress by nature. The following work-related pain points can directly impact their health and the quality of patient care:

• Walking time: average of 1 to 1.5h per shift
• Searching time: average of 1h per shift just for assets without the time to reach a person
• Alarm fatigue: created by an increased number of notifications while 70-90% of alarms are false or non-relevant
• Insecurity: average of 20% reported physical assaults

To relieve their nurses from overwork and mitigate the risk of burnout (sometimes between 20 to 30% burn out rate), hospitals must create efficiencies. Digital technology can help.
