- Nurse workload not balanced
Solution
Over the span of 18 months, iQueue was implemented at HHC’s 180 infusion center beds. As a result of iQueue for Infusion Centers, HHC achieved an increase in average completed volume while utilizing existing resources, a decrease in both drug and infusion wait times, and an overall positive impact on nursing workflows
