Delayed Care: Patients may experience longer wait times for treatment, leading to deteriorating health conditions. Increased Workload: Overburdened nurses may experience burnout, reducing the quality of care they can provide. Higher Healthcare Costs: Inefficiencies and delayed treatments can lead to increased medical expenses for both patients and healthcare systems. Poor Patient Outcomes: Inadequate care can result in complications, longer hospital stays, and higher mortality rates.
