Partnerships in work redesign.
Nursing and other health care professionals, departments, and communities must integrate as partners for work redesign. Prescription refills and lab results are examples to exemplify partnerships and cost-effectiveness. Team strategies are discussed within the nursing functions of telephone triage and the coordination of patient flow, including implications for nurse administrators. These strategies can be adapted to a variety of health care settings. By working together as partners for work redesign, all members of the health care team become part of the gold standard for care delivery.
