Role of a systems consultant during the implementation of a patient care system.
These are just a few examples of areas where systems consultants and nurses can work closely together in designing and implementing a patient care system. Implementation of a patient care system will require careful examination of most nursing policies and procedures. The consultant's depth and range of experience is greatly enhanced by the nurse's understanding of the patient care environment and of day-to-day activities. By adhering to a carefully planned and controlled implementation process, they can combine their skills and strengths to ensure the successful implementation of a new patient care system.
