How can technology play a role in alleviating these issues?
Technology can be a powerful ally in improving the working conditions for nurses. Electronic Health Records (EHRs) can streamline documentation and reduce the time spent on administrative tasks, allowing nurses to focus more on patient care. Telehealth can also ease the burden by providing remote patient monitoring, reducing the need for frequent in-person visits. Wearable technology can help monitor the health of nurses themselves, providing alerts for signs of fatigue or stress, which can prompt timely interventions.
