New grad nurse on a cardio PCU is expected to place orders for cardiologists, which conflicts with nursing training and creates additional workload and potential risk.
The existing communication and order entry process relies on verbal or text requests from physicians to nurses, with no structured way to ensure orders are placed by the appropriate provider, leading to offloading of work onto nurses.
Workarounds Described
- Nurses place orders on behalf of physicians
- Physicians communicate orders via phone or text
Implied Software Gaps
- Physician-facing mobile app for order entry
- Structured communication channel for order requests
