🌸✨💓THIS IS A TUMBLR HUG! 🧚🏾‍♀️ PASS IT ON AND HAVE A LOVELY DAY! ~♡ (´｡• ᵕ •｡`) ♡

Sending a massive virtual hug right back at you, darling P! ❤️❤️❤️ Hope that you're having a fabulous week ✨

[hug-your-face]

Okay so wow this is getting notes and asks and messages (thank you all! I’m glad you are curious and hopeful!) so I’ll share what I’ve learned.

I started with Wunderlist bc it was beautiful and simple and the phone app synched with the web app synched with the desktop app.

Microsoft bought Wunderlist and turned it into Microsoft To Do. They made it ugly and awkward and buggy.

I still use MS To Do. The phone app (mostly) synchs with the tablet app and web app and desktop app oh wait the desktop app is giving me login problems. I use it because it’s familiar. I don’t love it at all. But you don’t need to love it it just needs to work for you. I am in the process of migrating from MS ToDo to a rather complicated project management system. More on that later.

If I had to start over again I might use Notion. Or Zenkit. Both are a bit of overkill. But both worked well enough when I tried them.

ToDoIst was also nice. As was AnyList. As was Remember The Milk. At the time I tried them, their prices (more than free) were too high.

If you wish to avoid MS ToDo, here’s what I recommend your queue manager have:

Mobile app or highly usable fast mobile website. You need it with you as much as your phone is with you.

Ease of entry. This is job one. You need to be able to whip it open, jot down “frim the jib jab” and forget it. If there are login screens, Click To Add An Item Now Enter The Title Now Enter A Description Do You Want To Save YN Are You Sure then forget it. You won’t use it.

Ease of reading the whole list at once. See #2.

If you do any work at at a computer, you’ll want some kind of desktop access. Web app, desktop app. Synching needs to happen automagically and RELIABLY. If you feel you cannot trust your queue manager, you won’t use it.

Blindingly easy manual sorting. Drag and drop please. No “click to move up one.” Just be able to grab an item and move it up, down, between.

Automatic Sorting as an option. Ideally saved as a preference. Sort completed at the bottom, new at the top, or whatever works for you. I personally ADD at the bottom, and when I “star” an item it moves to the top.

Minimal metadata per item. A Note is good. Subtasks are iffy. They can be nice to help you make a checklist and to break down a large thing into smaller things. But they also just add complexity and then you’re managing your queue manager, and it’s not managing your queue. Worse, the subtasks are buried under another layer — you can’t see them at a glance when you look ar your queue.

Nice to have: Multiple lists, with blindingly easy moving of an item from one list to another.

How I use my queue manager:

Multiple lists: I have 3: “Now, Next, Someday.” I use Now for “right now, hopefully today but we’ll see.” I use Next for “at the top of my mind, maybe this week” and Someday for “yeah that’s a dream, I sure hope I get to it someday.” When a timer goes off on Fridays I peek thru all of them and try to make them match reality.

Limits on “now.” I try to keep the Now list less than 8 items and the Next list to less than 20. If that means moving some items to Next because they’re not gonna get done today, or moving some away from Next into Someday then that’s what I do. There’s nothing demotivating like a queue that you “should do” that keeps growing and growing. Thats what the Someday list is for. Keep your “now” small….. if it runs empty you can always pull some in from the “next” list!

Add at bottom, star to top, move around otherwise. I default new items to go to the bottom of the queue. That means I’m more likely to actually work it as a queue. If something comes in that truly needs to jump to the top, I have MS Todo set so that when I press the “star” on the right of the item, it just jumps to the top.

Timers. I have three each day (morning noon evening) to remind me to check the queue. I have one on Fridays to remind me to do some Queue Gardening. That’s when I’ll move things between the different lists, look at how many I got done this week, and try to be honest with myself about what I really think I can get done next week.

Compassionate Review. See the above on my Friday timer. When you look back WITHOUT JUDGMENT at what you got done and adjust your plans for the next day/week accordingly, you actually get better at estimating what’s realistic.

Allow your methods to evolve. When I started doing this I had items on my queue like “med 1,” “med 2,” “med 3,” “shower,” “breakfast,” “email 15m max.” Over time, making and checking off those things has collapsed the morning into a single “start the day” item with a checklist in the item notes. I’m currently experimenting with a whole separate list for new “big” items, which I ignore until Fridays when I then assign them to one of my “now, next, someday” lists. We’ll see how it works out.

Keep. It. Simple. Many softwares will add features they claim will help you be more productive. Due dates. Reminders. Sharing. Approvals (!) Integration with email, twitter, your water faucet. Sub-lists and sub-sub-lists and sub-sub-sub-lists. No. You just want to manage the queue. You just want to be able to quickly look at the queue and have an answer to “what’s next” or “Ive just watched 2 hours of TOTK videos what was I supposed to be working on again?”

Hope this helps some o’ y’all. Peace.

Listen, if you interrupt me with a new task while I’m midway through another, you aren’t allowed to be mad when I switch to the new task immediately. You clearly thought the new task was important enough to interrupt me with it!

I am just a little pikmin! You’re the one with the whistle!!

The Role of Queue Management Systems in Clinics & Hospitals

In the bustling environment of healthcare facilities, managing patient queues efficiently can significantly impact both patient satisfaction and staff productivity. Queue Management Systems (QMS) have emerged as indispensable tools for clinics and hospitals seeking to streamline their operations while prioritizing patient care. Let's delve into the key features and benefits of QMS in healthcare settings.

Enhancing Patient Experience

Patient experience begins the moment they step into a clinic or hospital. Long wait times can lead to frustration and dissatisfaction, tarnishing the overall perception of care quality. A QMS allows patients to join queues through multiple channels, including in-person kiosks, mobile apps, or websites, reducing wait times and providing a more convenient experience.

Optimizing Staff Efficiency

For medical staff, managing queues manually can be time-consuming and prone to errors. With a QMS, staff members are notified when patients are next in line or when there are changes in queue status, allowing them to allocate their time more efficiently and provide timely assistance to patients.

Seamless Integration

Integrating the QMS with existing systems such as appointment scheduling and Electronic Health Records (EHR) is crucial for seamless workflow management. By syncing with appointment schedules, the QMS ensures that patients are queued based on their scheduled visit times, minimizing delays and maximizing operational efficiency.

Real-Time Insights and Analytics

Queue analytics provide valuable insights into patient flow, wait times, and peak hours. By analyzing this data, clinics and hospitals can identify bottlenecks, optimize resource allocation, and improve overall operational performance. Additionally, real-time dashboards and reports enable healthcare administrators to make informed decisions on-the-fly.

Compliance and Security

Compliance with healthcare regulations, such as HIPAA, is paramount when implementing a QMS. Ensuring patient privacy and data security is non-negotiable. Robust security measures should be in place to safeguard sensitive patient information and maintain compliance with industry standards.

Continuous Improvement

Feedback mechanisms integrated into the QMS allow patients to provide valuable insights into their experience. By collecting feedback and monitoring satisfaction ratings, clinics and hospitals can identify areas for improvement and implement changes to enhance the overall quality of care.

Conclusion

In an era where patient-centric care is paramount, Queue Management Systems play a pivotal role in optimizing patient flow, enhancing staff efficiency, and ultimately improving the overall healthcare experience. By leveraging technology to streamline operations and prioritize patient needs, clinics and hospitals can set new standards for excellence in healthcare delivery.
