Whether transitioning care to another shift, team, or organization, gaps in communication during patient handoffs leave patients at risk. Both patients and providers benefit from smoother handoffs when pairing effective clinical communication with on-demand, patient-centered data and communication trends.

Transfer center inefficiencies can secretly drain not only hospital resources but staff morale and patient satisfaction. A simple, modest investment in a modern, mobile-centric collaboration platform can eradicate much of this burden while significantly increasing the volume of patient transfers, as it did for Temple Health, who went from 700 transfers per shift to 1,000 simply by adopting modern, purpose-built collaboration technology.
