門診護理人員工作包含協助臨床門診服務、衛教指導、護理處置及專科材料點班管理，若發生材料異常或缺料將導致看診延遲、影響醫療品質及病人安全。本專案以北部某醫學中心門診為對象，由於部分科別開診前需花費20-30分鐘執行專科材料點班，在看診中不時需處理專科材料點班異常或短少情形，造成人員的抱怨及影響病人的看診品質，故引發專案小組改善動機。專案目的為提升門診專科材料的點班管理，現況專科材料平均點班時間11.8分鐘，平均動用率也僅達60.5%。原因為專科材料設定項目及數量多、門診人員需多科跟診、專科材料擺放位置不當及標示不清、缺乏專科材料設定標準。擬定對策為增訂門診專科材料設定標準、修訂專科材料分級點班原則、分區集中放置專科材料、使用專科材料點班、統一專科材料點班表格式。實施後專科材料動用率提升至66.7%，點班時間降至平均3.9分鐘，且分區集中放置專科材料後有利於掌控庫存量，能減少溢領和滯料，亦讓看診流程更順暢，有效提升看診品質。
