Greene J - Dry-erase whiteboards are being installed in patient rooms. Physicians and nurses write their names on them so patients remember who they are. Doctors leave test results or exams scheduled for that day, and families post questions if they miss the doctors’ rounds that day. It might seem like a self-intuitive method to address patient satisfaction, but the simple whiteboard is a trend being led by hospitalists—doctors who specialize in inpatient care. To them, better communication with patients and families means happier patients.
