Abstract
The NHS is under pressure to increase its effectiveness and productivity.
Nurses are tasked with delivering effective and efficient care, as well as
improving patient safety, experiences and results. The reduction of waste
in service delivery, care and treatment can release time and resources for
nurses to engage in direct patient care. Nurses have an important role
in reducing waste and influencing other professionals in the healthcare
environment to increase their efficiency and productivity.
