While clinical apps offer significant benefits, they also come with challenges:
1. Data Security: Ensuring patient data privacy is paramount. Apps must comply with regulations like HIPAA to protect sensitive information. 2. Cost: Some apps require subscriptions, which might be a barrier for some nurses or healthcare facilities. 3. Integration: Integrating apps with existing electronic health record (EHR) systems can be challenging. 4. User Training: Nurses need proper training to use these apps effectively, which can be time-consuming.
