A growing nursing shortage combined with an outdated, legacy healthcare system

The unprecedented nursing shortage threatens hospitals’ financial viability and endangers patient care. Skyrocketing labor costs, coupled with high turnover have drained billions from U.S. healthcare systems. Meanwhile, many hospitals cling to outdated staffing models, leaving frontline teams overwhelmed and patients vulnerable. This perfect storm threatens the very foundation of inpatient care. Nexus Bedside changes the model.

The pilot opened my eyes to a different way of nursing. We’ll always need hands-on nursing, but having a second set of eyes and a second mind making sure things get done safely — it benefits both patients and nurses.
