As the healthcare industry shifts towards a value-based care model, nurses are playing an increasingly important role in delivering more effective patient care and better experiences. In this new model, healthcare providers are incentivized to improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs, which requires a more holistic approach. Nurses are uniquely positioned to lead this charge, as they are on the front lines and have a deep understanding of their patients’ needs and preferences.
At Arkos Health, nurses are at the forefront of this new model.
Our company’s mission is to improve the health and well-being of our patients through a combination of high-quality clinical care and personalized support. This approach requires nurses who are not only skilled clinicians, but compassionate and empathetic caregivers. It requires programs, resources, and technology that supports nurses in practicing at the top of their license.Another important aspect of nursing in value-based care is collaboration.
The success of our clinical programs puts nurses at the center of strong, interdisciplinary care teams. Our nurses work closely within a team of healthcare professionals, including physicians, care coordinators, behavioral health specialists, social services, and other caregivers to ensure that every patient receives comprehensive, expertly coordinated care. This team-based approach not only improves patient outcomes but also helps to reduce healthcare costs by avoiding unnecessary procedures and hospitalizations.One of the most innovative ways we are reimagining nursing in the value-based care era is through technology.
Our innovation in developing and continually investing in a proprietary platform that allows nurses to stay connected with their patients in real time, dramatically improves personalized support and guidance throughout every healthcare journey. Our platform enables nurses to identify patient goals, establish care plans, monitor patients’ progress, track their symptoms, and adjust as needed, all while maintaining a human touch. We are constantly seeking to optimize and enhance the technology so our nurses can spend less time doing paperwork and more time providing excellent care.Why should a nurse want to work at Arkos Health?
