With the virtual care platform, Banyan can deliver remote nursing staffing solutions that improve patient outcomes and increase staffing efficiencies. Banyan’s state of the art technology allows the virtual nurses to assist with administrative tasks that include:

From these various remote locations in Omaha and Tampa, the virtual nursing platform allows hospitals nationwide, to coordinate clinical teams, patient care, and technology support by enabling the sharing and validation of real-time information. This solution provides each patient with an additional RN that allows hospitals to decrease traveler costs, turnover, and readmissions, which results in an increase in revenue.
