Nuroo was founded initially in July 2013 out of the desire to recognise the
harsh challenges faced by nurses in their daily practice, but also to horn the
joys of this rewarding career. It was changed from a community group to a
business entity in September 2020 thanks to the hard work of some very talented
individuals and the support of its members at the time. Our name comes from the
compound word “Nurses’ Room” which is often used interchangeably with Nurses’
Station to describe an area of a healthcare facility where nurses and other
healthcare workers perform their administrative duties when they are not in
direct patient contact. We’re as unique as our name and the organisations we
actively seek to support. This is because, steeped in experience gathered across
the varied worlds of academia, business turnarounds, healthcare and strategy,
Nuroo Leaders bring more than fifty years of combined effort, as well as social
care delivery and compliance brain power to the table. We have assembled a
number of clinical documentations from admission to discharge to help you
prepare for and improve your CQC inspection rating. The initiative is designed
to promote high-quality documentation that not only support the capture of the
patient’s disease burden accurately in all healthcare settings, but also the
appropriateness of nursing interventions and quality of care provided to the
patient by ensuring all the information within the health record is of high
quality and supports informed decision-making. We’ve also partnered with other
well-recognised companies and talented care professionals that work tirelessly
to give our valued clients the very best service available in the social care
sector. So, whether you’re looking for staff training or/and preparing for your
CQC inspection, it is important that you are able to demonstrate compliance with
the regulators by making sure that you can evidence this with appropriate
documentation, including clinical records and relevant up-to-date policies. The
good news is that’s where Nuroo comes in! Nuroo is that little extra oomph when
you need it, helping you to reset your inspection goals, put the one-speed
gearbox of your documentation into drive, and gently press on the accelerator so
that your inspection engine is back into motion towards the right direction of
demonstrable care quality What’s more, Nuroo’s Clinical Documentation is created
by nurses and for nurses, not just to prevent valuable time and effort being
wasted on unnecessary paperwork, but also to ensure that interventions and
actions implemented contribute to desired results. High-quality clinical
documentation across the continuum of healthcare can be recognized in the
analogy of a cruise. Just as patients rely on numerous providers and healthcare
professionals to maintain a good state of health, passengers on a cruise ship
rely on numerous crew members to ensure they have smooth sailing and stay on
course. The anchor on a cruise ship can hold the ship in a certain location or
be raised when the ship is sailing. Sometimes patients will be at one location
for their care and the documentation is the anchor that provides the information
needed for the healthcare teams to stay on course. When patients are discharged
or complete a provider visit, they may see another provider in a separate
location and setting. The new provider will rely on the documentation from the
previous encounter to guide their medical decision-making. Each episode of care
should therefore include documentation that clearly supports each new episode of
care. Because like the anchor, the documentation supports a comprehensive view
of the care provided for any single encounter, it may stop when the patient’s
encounter or admission is over, but it is a clear record of each encounter. We
are Nuroo, a membership organisation born out of the desire to recognise the
harsh challenges faced by nurses in their daily practice, but also to horn the
joys of this rewarding career. We represent the professional interests of our
members and offer free, confidential advice and support on various matters
including unpaid wages, work suspensions; NMC allegations; whistleblowing;
discrimination, bullying, and harassment at work; career development; and much
more. Our name comes from the compound word “Nurses’ Room” which is often used
interchangeably with Nurses’ Station to refer to an area of a healthcare
facility where nurses and other healthcare workers perform their administrative
duties when they are not in direct contact with patients. We are as unique as
our name and the people we actively seek to support. This is because nuroo
refers to nurses’ ability to find balance within two opposing forces. Indeed,
the daily routines of nurses are rarely the same as they are always on the front
line interacting with people who are in stressful situations while having to
react appropriately to emergencies and unexpected events. Not surprisingly,
throughout history nurses have been a glowing light in some very dark days and
despite entering the coronavirus pandemic understaffed, undervalued and
underpaid, the skills, knowledge, and resilience of nurses across all
disciplines and settings have been showcased beyond words as they work
tirelessly in the most testing, bizarre and unusual circumstances. While it’s
almost impossible to portray a typical day for a nurse, given how different
healthcare workplaces can be, and how work can vary from shift to shift
depending on which patient a nurse needs to see, there’s a constant expectation
for nurses to step up to more – whatever this may be and regardless of their own
personal challenges. The good news is that’s where Nuroo comes in! Nuroo is that
little extra oomph when you need it, helping you put the one-speed gearbox into
drive and pressing the accelerator so that you can set your career engine back
into motion towards the right direction. It provides a safe place where nurses
can step aside, offload, take a deep breath, recharge, learn from each other,
advance and go beyond the call of duty. It is created by nurses and for nurses
to help each other stay up to date with new research findings so that they can
re-evaluate whether or not their current knowledge has relevance to their work,
and avoid the risk of practicing in a way that’s either ineffective or even
deleterious to patient care. Certainly, no one wants to waste valuable time and
effort performing tasks that don’t contribute to desired outcomes. But to turn
the tide so that we nurses can better appreciate and utilize information from
research, there needs to be a completely different approach to networking – one
that truly allows for both group and one-to-one input. Nuroo is determined to
deliver on this agenda so that you feel impacted as a member. WHY WE ARE
DIFFERENT. Our services are not for everybody! They’re for achievers: people who
are resilient, bold, want to excel in their career, be of service, and make a
real difference. If this sounds like you, then sit tight coz we’ve got you
covered! With the assortment of care settings, it would be detrimental to the
patient if a provider only considered the care that was provided in one setting
to guide their medical decision-making. By using Nuroo’s Clinical Documents, you
are taking a positive step towards effective record keeping which can turn the
tide in CQC inspection drastically, especially in some key areas like respecting
service users, seeking consent, ensuring care and welfare, safeguarding, and
assessing and monitoring the quality of the service provision – all viewed by
CQC inspectors as particularly important.
