NURSE RESPONSE DR.AKO I believe that timeliness, efficiency, and effectiveness still play a significant role in a nurse’s roles and goals; however, they can still be achieved under the umbrella of patient-centered, safety, and equitability. Like I had discussed before, the patient-centered treatment delivers treatment, acknowledges and responds to individual patient interests, needs, and beliefs, and ensures that patient values inform all clinical decisions. To achieve a flawless patient-centered treatment, I believe that a nurse must be efficient and effective in her role. In my opinion, patient-centered treatment is the heartbeat of a healthcare organization. Thus timeliness, efficiency, and effectiveness through a different set of goals can be merged into one and fall under the banner of patient-centeredness.In your opinion, Dr.
