What is Nursing Management in Care18?
Nursing Management digitises day-to-day nursing operations, linking tasks directly to patients and wards. From shift planning and handovers to vitals recording and nursing notes, every action stays connected to the IPD record. This reduces missed tasks and ensures continuity of care across shifts.
- Shift rosters and duty assignments per ward
- Standardised handover templates for safe transitions
- Real-time task lists linked to patients and beds
- Vitals charts with time-stamped entries
- Nursing notes integrated with the care plan
