PFCC for Caregivers

Benefits to Caregivers

The benefits of the PFCC approach extend far beyond patients and families. Doctors, nurses, technicians, hospital staff, and administrators, are just a few others reaping the rewards of PFCC.

Some of the benefits of the PFCC process to caregivers and organizations are:

• A "systems" approach to delivery and care
• Improvement in the quality of the service AND the patient experience by reducing variability in the whole process
• Standardization, quality, safety, and efficiency - they all go hand in hand!
• Creation of a personal experience while increasing standardization
• Improved efficiencies derived from standardization and reduction in variability
• Fewer "non-value-added" steps
• Reduction in the number of caregivers a patient encounters
• Cross-trained staff
• Improved direct care time performed by clinical staff
• Direct operating cost reduction
• Optimization of organziation efficiencies
• Change in the culture
