According to Amalgamated Medical Care Management\u2019s President Deborah Allwes Largoza, RN, MBA, MPH, \u201cToday\u2019s nursing shortage is seriously compromising patient care and causing many nurses to leave their positions due to their inability to provide the highest level of care. This problem is not expected to be solved any time soon and likely to be exacerbated by our nation\u2019s increasing senior population.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the latest U.S. Census data, there are over 56 million adults ages 65 and older living in the U.S., with projections that by 2030, there will be over 73.1 million older adults residing in the U.S. The current nursing shortage projections including those of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services which reported that the demand for RNs is likely to reach 3.6 million by 2030. More immediately, McKinsey & Co. reported that the U.S. will have a shortage of RNs of between 200,000 and 450,000 by 2025 unless action is taken now by healthcare stakeholders and federal leaders. The CARES program is a way for healthcare providers to take immediate action and gain significant improvements in patient care and experience, operational efficiencies, and staff-related cost savings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through CARES, healthcare providers can access such remote services as monitoring the electronic medical record (EMR) system for incoming messages, reviewing lab results with patients, processing medication refills, scheduling appointments, managing pending orders, and triaging patients. Remote clinic RNs can also complete telephonic assessments, provide clinical advice using establishing symptom-based protocols and evidence-based guidelines, and provide patient referrals to specialists and community resources, as well as telephonic patient education and counseling on various health topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CARES offers a convenient onboarding process for remotely functioning RNs and MAs. Applying Amalgamated Medical Care Management\u2019s leading-edge technologies, healthcare providers can easily connect with CARES RNs and MAs directly through their EMR system. CARES RNs and MAs can be easily integrated with a healthcare provider\u2019s office team to the extent desired. Further, RNs with specialized training, education and certifications can provide their support to specialty clinics nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
