managers whereby daily huddles did not include the discharge plan whereby you find that a patient was supposed to be discharged at a specific date. Still, due to miscommunication, they end up being discharged late. Also, patients were not discharged over the weekend. If there was no clear communication and the patient was not discharged on a Friday, they would stay till Monday. Prolonged consult response also leads to failure to initiate the systematic data approach due to inconsistent nursing documentation process, which took a long time than required, hence slowing the process (Zikmund-Fisher et al., 2017). Nurses could take time to give responses to the receiving providers, which caused delays in information.
