ABSTRACT

Finding ways to improve patient throughput through efficient use of nursing time led one pediatric medical center to develop an Admission, Discharge, Transfer (ADT) Nursing Program that included specialized nurses devoted to nursing activities that normally disrupt continuity of care on patient units. It was found that the ADT nurses improved patient throughput. Additionally, a nursing-staff satisfaction survey found that 93% of nursing staff felt that the ADT program made a worthwhile contribution to decreasing the workload of nurses, and all nurses answering felt that the ADT program assisted in providing high-quality care and services.
