Why Nurse Triage?
Nurse triage supports the delivery of consistent, efficient, quality, safe care at every care touch point.
Incorporating nurse triage content into your workflow helps telehealth triage nurses offer symptom-based assessment in phone encounters and deliver consistent health information to callers. Our protocols decrease risk by standardizing information provided in response to patient calls.
