When it comes to nurses, a couple things go without saying. First, they’re absolutely essential to good care delivery. Second — and this follows from the first — they’re “very, very, very busy people,” says David Holland.
“When you’re in the hospital, I know physicians make a lot of decisions about your care, but it’s really nurses who deliver your care,” says Holland, vice president and CIO at Southern Illinois Healthcare, a three-hospital system based in Carbondale, Ill.
