Nurses should participate in regular training sessions and workshops. - Patient Education: Educating patients and their families about infection prevention, mobility, and the importance of reporting any discomfort can lead to better outcomes. - Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Working closely with other healthcare professionals, including physicians, pharmacists, and physical therapists, can provide a holistic approach to patient care.
